________________ THE EXTINCT ĀGAMAS OF THE JAINAS 103 Vasudevahindil is probably so; if not, it is at least based upon it as can be seen from the following lines occurring in it: "तत्थ ताव सुहम्मसामिणा जंबुनामस्स पढमाणुओगे तित्थयर-चक्कवट्टि-दसारवंसपरूवणागयं वसुदेवचरियं कहियं ति तस्सेव पभवो कहेयव्वो, तप्पभवस्स य पभवस्स त्ति ॥" Bambhadattacariya2 is said to be extracted from Ditthivāya and hence perhaps from Padhamāņuoga. Cūliyā—These Cūliyās are also known as Culla-vatthus. Only the first four Puvvas have Cūliyās. Therein the 1st Puvva has 4 Cūliyās, the 2nd 12, the 3rd 8, and the 4th 10. In all we have 34 Cūliyās. They are studied last." This finishes the exposition about the contents of Parikamma etc. So, as stated on p. 80 I shall now deal with the order in which the five sections of Ditthivāya? became mostlys extinct. Up till now none seems Moreover, the following lines thereof seem to substantiate this statement: (i) "grict Perriakrifsat famiftyod a ART ATT Fer -Ibid., pt. I, p. 214 (ii) “ T carg, Hafot et ferriskuifset" -Ibid. pt., I, p. 488 From this it follows that Cittantaragandiyā was available to him-a fact corroborated by its description given by him in Nandicunni. But this inference is not valid. For, by taking into account the date Saka Samvat 598 (Sarvat 733) mentioned by him as the year in which he completed Nandīcunni and the date of the extinction of Puvvagaya viz. Vira Samvat 1000 (Samvat 530), it seems more reasonable to believe that he got the traditional information about the contents of the Anuöga rather than to say that he had this part of the Agama directly accessible to him. This is referred to in Avassa yacunni (pt. II, p. 324). This episode is given by Haribhadra Sūri in his com. on Uvaësapaya (v. 357). 3 "Tai gal 36 Ha Tarfor 3415710 73VR #HU af734 11" -Nandi (s. 57) 4-5 MT67377 gula goale 7308, marry uforanda Hogart sfare ufowita a I.... care for 318 1" - Nandīcunni (p. 61) 6 The details about Ditthivāya available in the Svetāmbara and Digambara texts have been compared by H.L. Jain in his Hindi introduction (pp. 51-68) to Dhavala (Vol II). As stated in Samavāya (s. 46) Ditthivāya has 46 Māuyäpayas. Each of the 14 varieties of Parikamma has only one Māuyāpaya (vide p. 83). So it follows that some other section or sections of Ditthivāya must have Māuyāpayas. Abhayadeva Sūri in his com. (p. 69b) on Samavāya (s. 46) makes a tentative suggestion in This is pisode is given a Teaterfor _Nandi (s. 57 "Persaction, as under : Samavāya (s. 463mhave Māuyāpayas. “दिठिवायस्स' ति द्वादशाङ्गस्य 'माउयापय' त्ति सकलवाङ्मयस्य अकारादिमातृकापदानीव दृष्टिवादार्थप्रसवनिबन्धनत्वेन मातृकापदानि उत्पादविगमध्रौव्यलक्षणानि, तानि च सिद्धश्रेणि-मनुष्यश्रेण्यादिना विषयभेदेन कथमपि भिद्यमानानि षट्चत्वारिंशद् भवन्तीति सम्माव्यन्ते ।" "offerit qaror"-Malayagiri Sūri's com. (p. 238b) on Nandi (s. 57). 8 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
