Problem of Simultaneous Occurrence of... : 97 also should dawn immediately upon the destruction of the relevant obscuring karmas. And as both the destructions are simultaneous, it logically follows that the dawning of kevala-jñāna and kevala-darśana comes together. Haribhadra who wrote a commentary on Nandīsūtra on the lines of cūrņis, Abhayadeva, the commentator of nine Angas and Malayagiri who followed him, ascribe sahavāda (simultaneity of darśana and jñāna) to Siddhasena Divākara and attribute Abhedavāda to Vļddhācārya.
