In this connection it may be mentioned that no doubt some of the Mss. of Āvassayanijjuti have in the beginning about 50 verses which form a Therāvali and which tally with the verses occurring in Nandi. But the exposition of this Therāvali has no place so far as Viseśā', the Cunni on Avassayanijjuti and its commentaries by Haribhadra Sūri, Malayagiri Sūri? and Śrītilaka Sūri? are concerned. It is however in the 15th century or so that some of the commentators of Avassayanijjuti have assigned a place to it therein, e. g.
1. A Ms. dated Samvat 1483 (?) may be cited as an instance. See D. C. J. M. (vol. XVII,
pt. III, No. 1002) 2. He has referred to a work named Pravacanasiddhi on p. 367. This work is probably
extinct. 3. He has composed this com. in Saṁvat 1296.
