________________ JANUARY, 1992 151 Şad-drsti appears to have been used as a variant of sad-darśana. The verse 48 of the Bijolia inscription reads : 8 pancācāra-parayaņātma-matayah pañcānga-mantro-ijvalah panca-jñāna-vicāranāsu-caturāḥ pañcendriyā-rtho-ijayāḥ srimat-pañca-guru-praņāma-manasaḥ ..... The term pañcācāra denotes the five ācāras which are darśanācāra, jñānācāra, viryācārā, câritrācāra, and tapācāra; these are specified in the Nemicandra's Dravya-samgraha, Ch, III, gāthā 52, which runs as follows : daṁsaņaņāņapahāņe viriyacāritta-varatavāyare appaṁ param ca jujai so āyariyo muni jheo. The pañcăngamantra appears to refer to mantras classified under five heads, viz., ävhāna, sthā pana, samnidhikaraņa, pūjana, and visarjana, for the worship of the god. The pañca-jñānas are mentioned in Umāsvāmi's Tattvārthasūtra. Ch. I. Sūtra 9 which runs as follows: mati-śrutā-avadhi-manahparyayakevalāni-jñānam. The pañca-indriyārthas are specified in the sūtra : sparsa-rasagandha-varna-sabdāstadartha, Umāsvāmi's Tattvārthasūtra, Ch. II. sutra 20. The pañcagurus are Arhat, Siddha, Acărya, Upadhyāya and Sarvasadhu as mentioned in the well-known sacred Jaina mantra : ņamo-arhaņtāņam namo siddhānam ņamo äiriyāņam ņamo uvajjhāyanāṁ namo loe savvasāhūnam.
