Sañjña and Adhikärasūtras : Some of the initial Sañjñās are omitted by Hemacandra. The cause appears to be :
(a) They do not serve any direct purpose in the illustrations.
(b) They may create an obstacle in the flow of the story although Hemacandra is capable of moulding the whole of the diction accordingly. Most of the omissions occur in the beginning of the Dvyāśrayakāvya'.
Manytimes these Sañjñā or Adhikära sūtras are not illustrated through a sense but their name is used in a verse either directly or through a simile. Sometimes a dumber of
1. Muni, Himamsuvijaya. Ed. Siddha Hemacandrasabdanusasana, Ahmedabad, 1934, 1.1.4-1.1.42. These omitted Sanjñās are ;
स्वर, ह्रस्व, दीर्घ, प्लुत, नामी, समान, सन्ध्यक्षर, विसर्ग, व्यंजन, घुट, वर्ग, घोष, अन्त:स्थ, शिट, स्वः, विभक्ति, पद, वाक्य, नाम, घुट,
अव्यय, पुरण । 2. (a) Dvyāśraya, II. 79. Haima 2.2.1-3. In the illustrations of Kāraka, Kartā and Karma, he has given the verse :
महेनसां कारकवत् क्रियाणां हेतुः स्वतन्त्रः स कुकर्म कर्ता ।
Here both the names and definition are illustrated not through the sense but by the name only. (b) Similarly in the difinition of Samāsa, Dv.V.29; Haima 3.1.18.
समासे नाम नाम्नेव शस्त्रं शस्त्रेण युध्यथ ।
ऐकाथ्येऽयोजि विस्पष्टपटुभिगूरभंटैः ।। (c) In the illustrations of
समर्थः पदविधिः Dv. XX. 102; Haima 7.4.122, he gives :
प्राघोषत्सु सदा नृपः पदविधिर्यद्वत् समर्थोऽभवत् ।
