THE CANONICAL LITERATURE OF THE JAINAS
[CHAP.
The remaining portion of Uvagghāyanijjutti consists of about 216 verses. It commences by mentioning 7 causes that decrease the life-period. It deals with 7 nayas, 4 anuyogas, 7 Nihnavas and sāmāyika. Incidentally it narrates the lives of Vajrasvämin, Āryarakṣita Sūri, Damadanta, Metārya, Kālaka, Cilātiputra, Ātreya, Dharmaruci, slāputra and Tetaliputra. This finishes the rough survey of Uvagghāyanijjutti which is referred to, in the Nisjutti on other sections of Avassaya and which opens the doors for the treatment of suttapphāsiyanijjutti wherein the 1st topic dealt with is the nature of sutta. This is followed by Namokkāranijjutti of about 144 verses. Then we have sāmāïyanijjutti of about 111 verses.' This completes the Nijjutti of Avassaya (I).
Caüvvīsatthavanijjutti and Vandananijjutti consist of about 60 and 190 verses respectively.
Jhānasaya? consists of about 106 verses, and it is composed by Jinabhadra Gaņi Kşamāśramaņa. It is an exposition of meditation.
Pāritthāvaniyānijjutti3 comprises about 153 verses, and Padikkamanasangahaņā about 80 verses. Some of the topics dealt with, in the latter are: 7 types of fear, 9 kinds of brahmaguptis, 10 types of dharma, 11 pratimās of a Jaina layman and 12 of a saint, 13 kriya-sthānas, 14 gunasthānas, 15 Paramādhārmikas, 16 ajjhayaņas of Sūyagada (1), 17 kinds of self-control, 18 types of noncelibacy, 19 ajjhayanas of Nāyādhammakahā (1), 22 hardships, 28 ajjhayaņas of Āyāra including Nisīha, 29 types of pāpa-śruta and 31 attributes of the liberated. So leaving aside these two sections and Jhānasaya, Padikkamaņānijjutti contains about 227 (51+60+5+111 ) verses. Therein Jogasangaha having about 60 verses has the 1st verse in common with Samavāya (s. 32). It runs as under:--- ___ "आलोयणनिरवलावे आवईसु दढधम्मया। मणिस्सओवहाणे य सिक्खा णिप्पडिकम्मया ॥" 1 Its 1st verse is as uuder:
"नंदिमणुओगदारं विहिवदुवग्धाइअं च नाऊणं । काऊण पंचमंगलमारंभो होइ सुत्तस्स ॥"
Do the words Nandi and Anuogadāra here used refer to the two Culiyāsuttas? 2 This is referred to by Haribhadra Sūri in his com. (p. 328-32b) on Dasaveyaliya. 8 Its 15th verge defines sutta. It is as below:
"पुवावरमंजुत्त वेरग्गकर सततमविरुद्धं । पोराणमद्धमागहमासानिययं हवइ सुत्तं ॥"
