________________ Bhutavali. Bhutavali understood that the duration of life of Puspadanta is remained not much. Puspadanta prepared the synopsis of the Satkhand gama and disturbed the Jivatth na into eight Anuyogadv ras. Satprarupa was its first Anuyogadv ra which was written by Puspadanta. The other Anuyogadvāra as the he parts of the Ṣatkhandagama were composed by Bhutavali. 5. Acārya Yativṛṣabha and His Works Nothing much is known about him. His two works are mainly available, Kaş yap hudaunnisutta and Tiloyapannatti. The first does not indicate any thing about him. But the other one Tiloyapannatti informs of course as follows: Panamaha jinavara-vasaham, ganaharavasaham taheva gunaharavasaham. Dusaha-parisahavasaham, jadivasaham dhammasutta padhae vasaham. Cunnasaruvam attham, kara padamapamana-kimjantam. Atthasahassa-pamanam, Tiloyapannatti-namae. G th 77 Tiloya. Part 2, p. 882 Kaş yap huda Cunnisutta The Kaş yap huda Cunnisutta of Yativṛṣabha is known as Vrtti, which provides the different meanings of Bijapadas in a condensed way. In other words, the Cunnis tras are the exposition of Bijapadas as pointed out by using the word "Anucintiun nedavam" or "Genhiyabbam". The total number of S tras of the work is 7009. The Kaş yap hudaunnisuta is divided into fifteen Adhik ras, which are somewhat different from the division made by c rya Gu adhara. Uccara a commented upon the Cunnisutta. 6. Tiloyapa atti The second work Tiloyapa atti is the earliest text relating to Loka or Universe. The Text Tiloyapannatti is divided into nine chapters, i.e. Jagat Svarupa, Narakaloka, Bhavanavasi Loka, Manuşyaloka, TiryakLoka, Vyantara Loka, JyotisiLoka, Kalpav si Loka, and Siddha Loka. It is a treasure of culture standpoints. The fourth chapter of the Text deals with Jain mythological views relating to Kalpavṛksas, al k purusas, Samavasara a and so forth. It appears that some of the G this are added there in the text afterwards. For instance, a prose portion in the seventh chapter (P. 766) is borrowed or added afterwards from Dhaval (Pu. 4, p.157) as Dhaval itself refers to Tiloyapa atti. Likewise, 7th to 87th G ths of the first chapter are also borrowed from Santaprarupa of Dhaval. This does not mean that the Tiloyapa atti is composed in 8th or 9th c. A.D. In fact such portions are defiantly added interpolated. 7-8. Dhaval -tika and JayaDhaval -tika of V rasena and Jinasena on the Kaş yap huda and Satkhand gama V rasena composed Dhaval Tika on the Satkhand gama in Pr krta - Sanskrit mixed language called Ma iprav la style. It was written in memory of Rāṣtrakuta king Amoghavarśa who was called Dhaval. Considering the importance of Dhaval tika, Jinasena says "It is the Tika of V rasena and the other Tikas are simply Panjikas. The Tika exposes the Siddh nta, the philosophical trends and in this context the Dhaval tika is Tika in true sense. Both Dhaval and Jaya Dhaval Tikas discuss the Jain philosophical trends profoundly they deal with the subjects of Mah karmaprakritipr bhrita and Kaş yap huda. V rasena was the disciple of ryanandi and El c rya. Jinasena praises him by saying rutakeval and Prajñ rama a. V rasena completed the Dhaval tika in Saka Sam. 738 (816 A.D.) He composes only Purv rdha part of the Dhaval and Jayadhala tika. The Uttar rdha part of both the Tikas was written by his disciple Jinasena. JayaDhaval Tika on the Kaş yap huda Jayadhala Tika on the Kaş yap hudaas written by, Vrasena and Jinasena. V rasena composed it up to the fifth Varga Khanda and the remaining part by Jinasena. V rasena distributed the chapters of Kaş yap hudaccording to his own arrangement. Since the original text is related to Jň naprav da, the author discussed in detail the nature of knowledge and Nayas. All the Anuyogadv ras are Page 156 of 556 STUDY NOTES version 4.0
