4. Múla Sútras. 1. Uttarajjhayaņáim (Skt. 37Tzualfa), supposed to embody the last sermon of Mahávíra, was composed by Bhadrabáhu. It consists of thirty-six chapters, nearly all in verse. Its subject-matter comprises sermons, legends and dogmatic statements. Several of the legends are cominon to Brahmanic and Buddist literatures. Many verses are a mere translation of the Mahábhárata slokas and a few others correspond in wording to those of the Dhammapada and Játakas.
