To my mind, this work is, in short, an encyclopedia of Jainism, and if one properly studies it with Viahapannatti, it may make that individual a past-master of Jainism. It may be mentioned en passant that its 1st paya (s. 36-37 ) furnishes us with a geographical-ethnographic outline; for, herein there is a mention of the Ariyas (Aryas) and Milikkhus ( Mlecchas ) with their habitations.
SŪRIYAPANNATTI This Uvanga is a work on astronomy from a Jaina standpoint. It is divided into 20 sections, each of which is styled as pāhuda. This is likely to remind one of the sub-divisions of the
Puvvas. The importance of this work for the study of the ancient - Indian astronomy has been emphasized by various European : scholars; e. g. Prof. H. Jacobi (S. B. E. vol. XXII, intro. p. xL), Prof. E. Leumann (Bezeihungen der Jaina-Literatur zu Andern Literatur-kreisen Indiens, pp. 552-553) and Dr. G. Thibaut ( Astronomie, Astrologie und Mathematik and J. A. S. B. vol. XLIX, p. 108).
This work deals with the moon, too. So Prof. Winternitz is inclined to believe that "it almost looks as though the original Candā-Panntti had been worked into the Sūra-Pannatti". Vide A His. of Ind. Lit. (vol. II, p. 467).
JAMBUDDİVAPANNATTI This is so to say a work on Jaina cosmology. It is divided into seven sections, each known as vakkhakkāra. In the 3rd section, 1 Payas 3, 5, 6 and 33 are also named as Alpabahutva, Paryāya, Upapato
dvartana and Jžānaparināma.
