particular phase of the tradition in question--namely that which makes the author of the Mimârsâ Sutras the pupil of the author of the Vedanta Sätras- with which we are most concerned is comparntively late in origin, and also that it presumes the author of the Vedanta Sátras to have been the game as the famous " Arranger" of the Vedas whose pupil Jaimini is said to be in the Purânas. It is also to be noticed that there is a further presumption in it that the Jaimini that received the Sama Veda from Vyása is the same as the author of the Mimâmsa Sätras. Here we may observe that although there is a Jaiminîya recension of the Sama Veda, there is no evidence in the Mimâriisa Sätras of any special connection between their author and the Sama Veda in particular. If all this is borne in mind, it will be readily granted that there is no difficulty in setting aside this tradition as untrustworthy if it can be proved from well-established facts that it does not fit in with the probabilities of the caso.
Personal references to thinkers and authors are more numerous in the Vodánta Batras than in the Mimamsa Sætras. The former are less than a fifth of the latter in bulk, judged by the number of Sutras in each; butihey contain 32 such references as against 26 in the Mimârsâ Sätras. Again, the bulk of the references in the former are to Jaimini, who is referred to no less than 11 times, and to Badarayana, who is referred to 9 times; while the Minnámsá satras refer only 5 times each to Jaimini and to Bådarayaya. There are thus 30 references in all to be discussed before arriving at any thing like a final conclusion. These may now be noted in order, and the Sätras concerned written out and numbered serially, for facility of quotation in the course of the discussion. (Group A): References to Badarayana in the Vedanta Sutray :
