THE CANONICAL LITERATURE OF THE JAINAS
(CHAT.
Mahattara. Several works are mentioned here e. g. Nandīcunni (p. 1), Avassaya (p. 3), Tandulareyāliya (p. 3), Dharmasamhita (p. 12), Nundi (p. 16), Saddapāhuda (p. 47), Jinabhadra Gaņi Kşamāśramana's Cunni on sarīrapada (p. 74 ) etc. Further this Cunni supplies us with quotations in Prākṣtaand notes differences of opinions. It explains the word dharmāstikāya on p. 29 as "emailla taj 14 f #19: 3791&faalranta! st), afea arat 41929 enf€812:, . ara19169172 gaffeapta:". On pp. 37–40, are defined Puvvangu etc., up to Sīsapaheliyā, and their dots and numerical figures are explicitly mentioned.
Avussayacunni is also a work of Jinadāsa Gaņi Mahattarra according to Anandasagara Sūri and Jaina Granthavalı (p. 18); but, in none of the Mss. deposited at B. O. R. I., there is an entry whereby its authorship may be so attributed. This work is published in two parts. Several works are mentioned therein e. g. in Pt. I Govindanijjutti (p. 31), Ohanijjutticunni ( p. 341 ), Pascakappa (p. 415), Risibhāsita (p. 501 ) and in Pt. II Dīvasāgarapannutti (p. 6), Uttaracūliyā (p. 157) and Vasudevahindī (p. 324). There are quotations in Samskrta; and Prākrtao. This Cunni is mostly in Prākṣta, and on pp. 416-417 and 569–576 of its Pt. I, we have passages in Samskrta. In Pt. I, on pp. 374 and 377, a pitcher is described, on p. 530 there is a reference to a writing on bhürjapatra, on p. 566 Cāņakka is mentioned, and on p. 601 we have "a gia 79€1." In Pt. II, on p. 233 there is mention of Siddaseņa Kha
1 "सरीरपदस्स चुण्णी जिणभद्दखमासमणकित्तिया समत्ता॥" From this I am inclined to infer
that Jinabhadra had composed a Cunni and that, too, probably on Panşavanå. 2 See p. 32 etc.
3 See pp. 12, 15, 82, 84 etc. 4 For some of the other works of their sections see pp. 31, 35, 80, 83,
142. 146. 151, 160, 210, 214, 341, 354, 384, 390, 416, 453, 504, 600 and
601 of Part I. Ő See pp. 84, 85, 121. 375, 427, 435 and 462 of Part 1 and pp. 52, 202,
306 and 307 of Part II. 6 See pp. 515 and 609 of Part I and pp. 24 and 306 Part II There are good
many verses in Prākrta. See pp. 202-203 of Pt. I and pp. 115, 140-142 and 302 of Pt. II,
