________________
THE EXTINCT ĀGAMAS OF THE JAINAS
115 If Bhāvanā and Vimutti noted here cannot be identified with the 3rd and the 4th Culas of Ayara, they, too, along with the remaining 8 ajjhayaņas should be considered as lost.
VIII Dogiddhidasā has 10 ajjhayaņas. They are mentioned in Thāņa (s. 755) as under :
“वाते १ विवाते २ उववाते ३ सुक्खित्ते कसिणे ४ बायालीसं सुमिणे ५ तीसं महासुमिणा ६ बावत्तरिं सुव्वसुमिणा ७ हारे ८ रामे ९ गुत्ते १०.".
All of them are lost. From the titles of the ajjhayanas 5-7 it appears that they deal with dreams-a subject supposed to be treated in Mahāsumiņabhāvanā.
__IX As regards Dihadasā, we learn from Thāna (s. 775) that it has 10 ajjhayanas. The pertinent portion is as under:
"चंदे १ सूरते २ सुक्के ३ त सिरिदेवी ४ पभावती ५ दीवसमुद्दोववत्ती ६ बहूपुत्ती ८ (? ७) मंदरे ति त ९ (? ८)
थेरे संभूतविजते ८ (? ९) थेरे पम्ह ९ (? १०) ऊसासनीसासे ।" In Pupphiyā (p. 21b) we come across the following verse which mentions its 10 ajjhayanas :
"चंदे १ सूरे २ सुक्के ३ बहुपुत्तिय ४ पुनमाणिभद्दे ५-६ य ।
दत्ते ७ सिवे ८ बले या ९ अणाढिये १० चेव बोद्धव्वे ॥" From this it may be inferred that the ajjhayanas 1, 2, 3 and 7 of Dīhadasā are perhaps the same as the first 4 ajjhayaņas of Pupphiyā. As regards the 4th it may be equated with the 1st of Pupphacülā.2 Thus the rest seem to be lost.
X So far as Sankhevitadasā is concerned its 10 ajjhayanas as stated in Thana (s. 755) are those noted on p. 59, fn. 2. Out of them only Angacūliyā, Vaggacūliyā and Vivāhacūliyā are extant; the rest are extinct.
With these words about the 10 Dasās I shall now refer to a remark in the introduction (p. 7) to Nirvanakalika. It is as under :
1 2
This appears to be a misreading. If so, it should be "सूरे त". As stated herein it has 10 ajjhayanas noted in the following verse: "सिरि १ हिरि २ धिति ३ कित्ति(ती)ओ ४ बुद्धि(द्धी) ५ लच्छी ६ य होइ बोद्धव्वा । इलादेवी ७ सुरादेवी ८ रसदेवी ९ गन्धदेवी १० य ॥"
