The names of the purvas [354] are as follows :
1. uppāyapuvvam,491 utpādapūrvam; 10 vastu and 4 culiya vastu ; ekā padakoți, 10 millions.
169
2. aggeniyam (A B C), agge-aniyam N (aggāṇīyam N ed., according to Leumann); agreniyam Abh.,492 and agrāyaṇiyam493 Schol. on N ; 14 vastu (so also in § 14) and 12 culiya vastu; sannavatiḥ padalakṣaḥ (9,600,000). A direct citation from this is found in Avasy. 10,42494 and in Malayagiri on upanga 4 (agrayaniyakhye dvittyapurve karmaprakṛti prabhṛte bamdhavidhane sthitibamdhadhikare catvāri anuyogadvārāṇi...). An anonymous avacuri on Candra-mahattara's Saptatikā (ms. or. fol. 690) calls this work an excerpt from the diṭṭhivaa, especially from the fourth prabhṛtam (karmaprakṛtināmam of the fifth vastu of the second purva ("agrāyaṇiya"). In the Vicārāmṛtasaṁgraha we find the following interesting statement taken from the "Nandivṛtti: -Sivaśarma-Suryadibhir agre 'niyadipurvebhyaḥ samuddhṛtāḥ śatakādi karmagraṁthiḥ. There actually [355] exists a siddhapāhuḍam in 120 gāthās, which is characterized as having taken its rise from the aggeniyapuvva; see p. 361.
3. viriyam, viryapravadam ;495 8 vastu and 8 culiya vastu; tasya 'pi(!) saptatiḥ padasahasrāṇi Abh., but in the schol. on N: 78 padalak ṣaḥ 7,800,000.-Citation from this in Haribhadra on Avasy. 10,42 (see p. 354, note 4).
4. atthinatthippavayam, astinästipravādam ;496 18 vastu (also according
the introduction to the Kalpäntarvācyani. In this work the number of vasti (? vastu) of each purva is said to increase from 1 on by geometrical progression (8192 in the case of purva 14). Here however in the text itself-see p. 366-we find entirely different figures which are quite credible. The figures in the case of 1.3.7.10 vary somewhat in the enumeration of the purvas in Nemicandra's pravacanasarodhāra § 92, v. 719-25.
491 sarvadravyäṇām paryavāṇām ( paryāyāṇām) co'tpadabhavam amgikṛtya prajñāpanā Abh., sarvadravyānam ut padam adhikytya prarupana N.

493 The Schol. on Hem. Kalpäntarvacyäni has the same.
494 aggeṇiammi jahā Divāyaṇa jattha ega tattha sayam/jattha sayam tatthe 'go hammai va bhumjae va vi//Haribhadra says: jaha agrianinie (!) virie at thinat thipavayapuvve ya padho: jatthe 'go Divayano bhumjai tattha Divāyaṇasayam bhumjai, jatthä Divayanasayam bhumjai tattha ego Divayano bhumjai; evam hammai. According to this the similar passage should be found also in puvvas 3 and 4. See the remarks on Ambaḍa in Aup. § 89; Ambada is mentioned ibid § 76 together with Divāyaṇa. 495 padaikadese padasamudayopacārāt sakarmetarāṇām jīvānāṁ ajivanam ca viryam pravadati 'ti viryapravadam Schol. on N.
