________________ 34] DASAVEĀLIYA SUTTA. [ Ch. VỊ CHAPTER VI. St. 1-4 Tro ( Sk. Türi ) Standing at the head of a Gana or collection of monks; the head or the Ācārya of the Jaina Church. TETTUTTO The references to king's ministers, Brāhmaṇas ( HIEM), and Kshatriyas show that there were followers of the Jain Faith in all the Four Castes of India. निहुअ (Sk.निभृत) Steady, unagitated. धम्मत्थकामाणं (Sk.धर्मार्थकामानां) Desirous of ( falh ) obtaining the fruit or purpose ( 372 ) of religious pursuits which is Absolution ; THPT 37et: 1977757: 187: TETHETH. Curiously enough the word apparently mentions the three aims and ends of life-धर्म, अर्थ and कामalthough the meaning here is quite different, referring, as it does, to Moksha alone which is the fourth end of life. दुरहिट्ठिय (Sk. दुरधिष्ठित ) Difficult to be resorted to by ordinary persons. The word gerege is a peculiar word in the Jain Sūtras in the sense of difficult to be practised'; cf. आचाराङ्गसूत्र. (I.) धर्म Religion is of two kinds in the first place---गृहस्थधर्म and अनगारधर्म ; the former is further characterized by 12 items, while the latter is characterized by 10 items ; see fagith, St. 246–248. St. 5. Juurest ( Sk. 9 377 ) Nowhere else. There is the reference to the other systems of religion and philosophy such as the Sankhya and others. The derivation ( 7 34a suggests a double negative in the word, while, in fact there is only one negative in sense. The word might have been perhaps taken from some Deshi dialect. The wording Tapy occurs very frequently in the Agama Literature, in the sense of 'except', 'without'. fas BIOTHEFT ( Sk. Tayt AHITT:) of the monk following Samyama or self-restraint (laystyna ) lit. the cause of the Most Extensive thing or the sublime thing viz. HT.' St. 6. CET ( Sk. 867 ) monks physically and mentally weak, faqat ( Sk. 34 ) monks who are strong physically
