died in Vira Samvat 1055.1 In this Nandicunni (pp. 7, 21 etc.) differences of opinion are noted, and on pp. 21-22 there is a discussion about the coexistence of kevalajñāna (omniscience) and kevaladarśana (absolute undifferentiated cognition). At times there are quotations in Prāksta (vide p. 43).
From the last line of the prined edition of Anuogaddaracunni, it follows that this Cunni, too, is composed by Jinadāsa Gani Mahattara. Several works are mentioned here e. g. Nandīcunni (p. 1), Avassaya (p. 3), Tandulaveyāliya (p. 3), Dharmasaṁhitā (p. 12), Nandi (p. 16), Saddapāhuda (p. 47), Jinabhadra Gani Kşamāśramana's Cunnil on sarīrapada (p. 74) etc. Further this Cunni supplies us with quotations in Prākrta and notes differences of opinions. It explains the word dharmāstikāya on p. 29 as "tifa etaj 3hr for art: riiglahin(? sů), 31st alle rig erfchry:, Hamrahlarte ehfffahrt:”. On pp. 37-40, are defined Puvvanga etc., up to Sisapaheliyā, and their dots and numerical figures are explicitly mentioned.
Avassayacunni is also a work of Jinadāsa Gani Mahattara according to Anandasāgara Sūri and Jaina Granthāvalī (p. 18); but, in none of the Mss. deposited at B. O. R. I., there is an entry whereby its authorship may be so attributed. An avacūri on Siddhāntāgamastava published in the Kavyamālā is silent about the name of the author of this Cuņņi. This Cunni is published in two parts. Several works are mentioned therein e. g. in Pt. I Govindanijjutti (p. 31), Ohanijutticunni (p. 341), Pañcakappa (p. 415), Risibhāsita (p. 501) and in Pt. II Dīvasāgarapannatti (p. 6), Uttaracūliyā (p. 157) and Vasudevahindi (p. 324). There are quotations in Sanskrta and Prakrta.? This Cunni is

1. For details see my article “t-&4 247 - 318i Cadoulaust published in
Jainadharmaprakāśa (vol. LVI, no. 5, pp. 156-163). "सरीरपदस्स चुण्णी जिणभदखमासमणकित्तिया समत्ता ॥" From this I am inclined to infer that Jinabhadra had composed a Cunni and that, too, probably on Pannavaņā. See p. 32 etc.
4. See pp. 12, 15, 82, 84 etc. 5. For some of the other works or their sections see pp. 31, 35, 80, 83, 142, 146,
151, 160, 210, 214, 341, 354, 384, 390, 416, 453, 504, 600 and 601 of Part I. 6. See pp. 84, 85, 121, 375, 427, 435 and 462 of Part 1 and pp. 52, 202, 306
and 307 of Part II. 7. See pp. 515 and 609 of part I and pp. 24 and 306 Part II. There are good
many verses in Prakrta. See pp. 202-203 of Pt. I and pp. 115, 140-142 and 302 of Pt. II.
