(3) Haribhadra Sūri's com. (p. 2 ) to Dasaveyaliya and its Nijjutti. There it is said: "निर्युक्तानामेव सुत्रेऽर्थानां युक्तिः - परिपाटया योजन, निर्युक्त युक्तिरिति वाच्ये युक्तशदलोपान्निर्युक्तिः ।

(4) Śilanka Süri's com. (p. 42 ) to Ayāra (I. 1. 1). There it is remarked: “निश्चयेनार्थप्रतिपादिका युक्तिर्निर्युक्तिः ।"
(5) Maladhārin Hemacandra Sūri's com. (p. 2586) to Anwogaddara (s. 151 ). Here it is said: "नितरां युक्ताः - सूत्रेण सह लोलोभावेन सम्बद्धा निर्युक्ता अर्थास्तेषां युक्तिः - स्फुटरूपतापादानम्, एकस्य युक्तशब्दस्य लोपान्निर्युक्तिः”.
( 6 ) Mulayāra. In its 515th verse it is said as under:'ण वसो अवसो अवसम्स कम्ममावासयं ति बोधव्वा । जुत्ति त्ति उवाय त्ति य णिरवयवा होदि णिज्जुत्ती ॥' These definitions, no doubt, explain to some extent the meaning of Nijjutti; but, in order that its nature may be completely realized, it is necessary to tap another source wherein there is a specific mention of at least its constituents. Up till now I have not come across such a source. So I shall, first of all, quote from the Dasaneyaliyanijjutti the following verses which throw some light in this direction and then refer to Anuogaddāra:"निक्खेवेग निरुत्तविही पवित्तीय केण वा कस्स । तदाराभेयलक्खण तयरिहपरिसा य सुतत्यो ॥ ४ ॥" भिक्खुस्स य निक्खेवो १ निरुत्त २ एगहियाणि ३ लिंगाणि ४ । अगुणडिओ न भिक्खू अववाया पंच दाराई ॥ ३३२ ॥”

This shows that nikkheva', cyaṭṭha and nirutta3 are the main constituents of Nijjutti.
From Anuvgaddaru (s. 151) it can be inferred that Nijjutti is three-fold: (i) Vikkheva-nijjutti, (ii) Uvagghoya-nijjutti and (iii) Suttapphasiyanijjutti. The 1st type deals with nikkevas, and the 2nd brings us nearer the sutta by dealing with 25 items noted in the following two verses occurring in Anwogaddara (s. 151 ):--
"उद्दे से १ निद्देसे २ म निग्गमे ३ खेत्त ४ काल ५ पुरिसे ६ य । कारण ७ पच्चय ८ लक्खण ९ नए १० समोआरणाणुमए ११॥
किं १२ इविहं १३ कस्स १४ कहिं १५ केसु १६ कहं १७ किन्चिरं हवइ काल १८ । इ १९ संतरं २० अविरहियं २१ भवा २२ गरिस २३ फासण २४ निरुत्ती २५ ॥ ॥
1-3 These are treated in Chapter VII.

These very verses occur in āvassayanijjutti as v 137 - 188. But, therein अणुमअ is separately counted as it should be.
