43. The data presented by Jayasenācārya are fairly pin-pointed unlike the later sources.

45. About the so-called, though very small, parllelism between Akalarkadeva's writing and of Kundakundācārya, in one case, I shall review it in a future paper. (Also a quotation commonly figuring in Pūjayapāda Devanandi's Kundakundācārya I shall discuss in a subsequent paper. )
46. Jainism in South India, Sholapur 1957, p. 152.

55. Satakhandāgama, Pt. 1, Sholapur 1973, "Introduction", p. ii.
56. These may have come from the floating sangrahani collections. Some of these, with small variations in readings and sequence also figure inside the Prajñapana-sutra of Arya Syāma (II) (c. 3rd cent. A.D.)
