A Recent Study of Bhagvaratra Reviewed
in that earlier passage As for the fetaka 24, it certainly has sowa list of items and the being-types taken into consideration by it are does Dated in a fairly complicated manner, but so far the sono of the matter is concerned this baraha stands on the same fooding as the fatahas 21-23 For here too it 18 asked about oertale belege types whether they are or are not characterized by the items of the list concerned and if they are then in what precise form Therefore, one might plausibly maintain that the material contained in the Bhagman katakas 21-23 as well as 24 can woll be transferred to the earlier Sarakas Of course, in those satakas this material will have to be attributed to relatively modern sub-stratum but since such a sob-stratum is already pro sent there in these Jatakas the transfer will create no special problem The case is different with the material contained ja tho saratas 26-41 For in these fatakas an attempt is invariably made to work out a list of Hong where two sub-lists of simple items are joined to a third sob-lut of such compound items as are got by combining one Item of the first BUB-IIst with one of the second Thus suppose one sub-list consists of the items P, 9, . (the total number of items belog m) And another consists of the Items , b, c (the total number of Meros belng n), then the third aub-list will consist of the items -como-> a-cum-9, a-cum-| b-cum-p, b-com-4, 6-cum- c-com- c-com-4 c-cum-r (the total number of items being m 1,m-mukulpted-by-w). Logically speaking, the sub-list with compound items is practically redte dant, for If we know (say) how a belng behaves as characterized by p and also how it behaves as characterized by a, then it is automatically know how it will behave as characterized by p-cum-a But thla cherestado did not prevent the Jaida agthors of the farakas In question from working out lists containing a sub-list of compound items. However, the that thout in those fatakas osc has been made of such ista la not apparaat on the face of it, so let us consider them one by one - rather groep be proup. On the basis of the Identity of their formal structure the farakoa 26-30 are found to constitute ono group, 31-32 another group, 33-34 a third group, 35-40 a fourth group, 41 a fifth group]
In the latakas 26-30 there are two sub-lists with Il aod 10 tons respectively The first yields the number of clauses in an uddahaka- tholt number being 12 (1 0 1 + 11), the second the number of wadahatan themselves--this number being 11 (1.c 1 + 10).
