________________
THE EXTANT ĀGAMAS OF THE JAINAS
157
(36) Jīvājīvavibhatti. Their sources are mentioned in the Nijjutti (v. 4-5) of Uttarajjhayaņa.
In Samavāya (XXXVI, p. 64) we come across the names of these 36 ajjhayanas; but they differ at times from the ones noted above. It may be added that the names of the ajjhayanas 3, 4, 7, 10, 14 and 25 can be cited as instances of a name by ädānapada, one of the 10 types of names noted in Aņuogadāra (s. 130).
Some information pertaining to the Jaina canon can be had from this Mülasutta. For instance in XXIV, 3 we come across the word duvālasanga, and in XXVIII, 21 we find the words Anga and bāhira. Similarly in XXXI, v. 13 there is a reference to 16 Gāhāsa, in v. 14, to (19)3 ajjhayaņas of Nāyā, in v. 16, to 23 ajjhayaņas of Sūyagada, in v. 17, to (26) uddesas of Dasă etc., and in v. 18, to (28 ajjhayaņas of) Paggappa. As regards this last item there seems to have been some confusion. Prof. Jacobi and Mr. G. J. Patel, too, have equated Paggappa with Āyāra, and each of them has said that formerly Āyāra had 28 ajjhayanas, and it now contains 24, the lost ones being Mahāpariņņā, Ugghāya, Anugghāya and Arovanā. I think the author wants to convey by Paggappa, Ayāra including Nisīha which as noted on p. 124 was somehow separated from Āyāra. Mahāpariņņā is lost as already stated on p. 82. Ugghāya, Anugghāya and Ārovaņā are each a portion of the extant Nistha dealing with the penances having these very names. To be explicit uddesas 2-5 and 12-19 deal with Ugghāya, 1 and 6-11 with Anugghāya and 20 with Ārovaņā. Further in support of this statement of mine I may quote the following line occurring in Āvassaya (III) :
"Jerrureri urtaut Pfant Art '? 1 Ajjhayaņas 6, 20 and 23 are respectively named here as Purisavijjā, Aņāhapavvajja
and Goyama-Kesijja. The rest have their names pratically the same as noted above. These names may be compared with those given on p. 30 of DCGCM (Vol.
XVII, pt. III). 2 These are the 16 ajjhayaņas of Sūyagada (1). 3 There are the 19 ajjhayanas of Nāyādhammakahā (1) 4 By etc. are meant Kappa and Vavahāra. 5 This very line with the following one occurs in Santi Sūri's com. (p. 617) on Uttarajjhayaņa:
"58 fast irry 951 3 11" It may be noted that in this com. (p. 616b) we have : "ge: 29:- Gert et 64, a Terra"
