The sources which were identified and mentioned by the late Abhyankar, the editor, are not included in the list above. Many v.l. which are not very important have also been skipped here.
In the preface to the English translation of the Sarvadarśanasamgraha by Mādhava, E. B. Cowell said: “I can hardly imagine a better guide for the European reader who wishes to study any one of these Darśanas in its native authorities. In one or two cases (as notably in the Bauddha, and perhaps in the Jaina system) he could only draw his materials second-hand from the discussions in the works of Brahmanical controversialists; but in the great majority he quotes directly from the works of their founders or leading exponents, and he is continually following in their track even where he does not quote their exact words” (p. vii). When Cowell wrote these lines, Jain materials were not well known to the West. However, nowadays these materials are available, and in this short article the writer has traced unidentified quotations to the sources, and nearly all citations in the third chapter (Ārhatadarśana) have been identified. What the writer of this short article aims at is to make clear that even in the chapter on the Jain system, Madhava based his description directly on authoritative and reliable sources, as in other chapters.
