________________ APPENDICES: 30 339 by Sri Pritivijayaji, this very hymn is given and ascribed to Sri Mänadevasūri, but it is not his. Sri Mánadevasūri's genuine Sūrimantrastotra is given by us in Appendix A hereto. This Mänadevasūri composed Laghusāntistava contained in Appendix 31. We would here reproduce verse 11 from a hymn of Sri Gautamaswāmi by Sri Vajraswāmi published at p. 114, Jainstotrasandoba, Pt. I, as it mentions all the presiding deities of the five Pithas in their proper order in a single verse and shows that Sūrimantra was the same in the time of Sri Vajraswami. 'श्रीमद् गौतमपादवंदनरुचिः श्री वाङमयस्वामिनी मर्त्यक्षेत्रनगेश्वरी त्रिभुवनस्वामिन्यपि श्रीमती । तेजोराशिरुदात्तविंशतिभुजो यक्षाधिप : श्री सुरा धीशा: शासनदेवताश्व ददतु श्रेयांसि भूयांसि नः ॥ We have already referred to Sri Vardhamāna-Vidya Kalpa of Sri Vajraswāmī incorporated by * Sri Simhatilakasūri (1322 Vikrama "era) pupil of Sri Vibudhacandrasūri in his Vardhamāna-Vidya Kalpa 26 the 3rd chapter thereof. We may note here that the correct reading instead of age' in the 4th verse of the hymn is all APPENDIX 30 This appendix contains Anubhavasiddhamantra-Dvātrimsikā about which we offered a few remarks at pp. 159-161 ante, particularly about its connection with Vidyāpravādapūrva and Jain Agamas and in relation to the probable date of the work, the lower limit of which has been stated to be the 7th century A. D. The upper limit of its date would be the date of Bhadraguptācārya and Vajraswāmi i. e. the 1st century A. D. As promised there we shall now make further observations especially on the question of the priority between Hemacandrācārya's Yogasāstra and Subhacandrācārya's jñānārņava alias Yogapradīpa. * Besides Vardhamanavidya-Kalpa Simhatilakasūri wrote in 1322 Vikrama era Mantrarājarahasya with Lilávali commentary and in 1326 commentary on Bhuvanadipaka (a work on the method of answering questions astrologically) of Padmaprabha and Gaņitatilakavstti.
