gopucchakah svetavāsā drāvido yāpaniyakah nihpicchakaśceti pañcaite Jinābhāsāh prakirtitäh [Indranandi: Nitisāra, verse No. 10).
Indranandi, prolific writer, authored several works in Sanskrit, including Padmāvatikalpa, Jvālāmālini kalpa, which served as a model for Mallişeņasūri of Mulgunda monastery to compose one more Jvālinikalpa (C. E. 1056).

The above verse, listing the five 'false' Jaina sects has been later quoted by Srtasāgara (16th cent.), a Digambara Bhattāraka in his Satprābhịtādisamgrah, in the way conservative clerics responding to other schisms. Of the five 'Jainābhāsa' sects, as Indranandi puts it, Yāpaniya was liked and praised by the Rāştrakūtas. Many followers chose to accept Yāpaniya samgha. With the support of the public and the ruling class. Yāpaniya accomplished to become famous and well-populated.
