between the period of Silalanātha and of Alunisuvralanälha03 will be incalculablc, and the aggrcga'c of successive individuals supposed to have been born during the intervening ages, will be infinite Hence, that representation must be given sufficient discount
Of all thc lists containing the second part of thc pedigree that in JHVO is the lengthicst. It contains several such names as do not rccur in the other lists Nevertheless, the version, though particularly devoted to thc history of the Haris, does not profess to be complete and exhaustive on the genealogical plane. This part, as in VPC and RPC, begins with kind Sumilra, but, unlike those in the said works, carrics thc pedigrec further 10 one Bhima in thc main line with casual and imperfect notes of and allusion to some of its unnamed sublines, From Sumitra to Blima the genealogy gives the descent almost in continuous succession.
Though most of the names reckoned in this section arc different from those of the Brahmanical Yadava pedigrce, yet there are still many which may be said to have their counterparts in the traduional gencalogical lists But the order of these names in the p digrec is so different and the information about the persons bearing these names, so meagre that any attempt to identify them with their Bralimanıcal counterparts appears absolutely difficult For, mere sameness of names cannot form a sound basis of identification Notwithstanding the above fact, the inanner, in which ihc Purānas in question have treated the pedigrees of various dynasties as well as thc personages reportedly connected with those dynastics, affords some grouuds for establislung a connection between the Brahmanical figures and their Jaina namesakes.
The second part of thc Hari genealogies as occurring in the different works is as follows
