Sravanānuvartini-mananapūrvavartini śraddhā. Jaina Devagupta in his commentary on sambandhakārikā on Tattvārthabhāşya writes : naisargikād avāptaśraddho' dhyayanādibhir ādhigamikam āpnoti / Janias do not talk of the remaining higher stages of sraddhā, but they implicitly accept them. In Buddhism we find references to all the four stages of śraddhā. In the following passage of Camkisutta (MajjhimaN. 2.173), there is reference to sravanapūrvavartini Sraddhā. saddhājāto...dhammam sunāti 1 We have references to mananānuvartini-nididhyāsanapūrvavartini (the third stage) śraddhā. It is called ākāravati saddhā (Majjhiman I. 320). Here the term 'ākāra' is used in the sense of 'supporting logical reasons'. This sraddhā is also described as 'avetysprasādā' (Abhidharmakośa 6.75). In Abhidharmakośabhāsya (8.7) we have reference to nididhyāsanānuvartini sraddhā (i.e. the fourth stage). The following is the passage in point : tasmāt tarhi sraddhā prasādah 1 tasya hi dvitiyadhyānalābhāt samāhitabhūminiḥsarane sampratyaya utpadyate so 'dhyātmaprasādah | This Sraddhā is adhyātmaprasādā. It is interesting to note that like many important technical terms, this term 'adhyātmaprasāda' also occurs in
