the commentary reference is paid to the pravacanam as sāmāyikädibiṁdusäraparyamtam, and in v. 58 erroneous doctrines and paşaṇḍin are treated of in detail. Then the glatthas (see above pp. 437,450,464), to which the text refers in v. 141, are expressly explained as śrinisithādichedagramtharthasutradharāḥ.857 Form all this we may draw the conclusion that the text is closely, [479] if not directly connected with the chedasutras.
We have already mentioned in reference to the mahākappa, Āvaśy. 8,55 above pp. 446,447, that the Nandi in its anangapaviṭṭha list recognizes the existence of a mahākappasuam, a cullakappasuam, and a kappiyākappiam. In the scholiast ibid, we find the following explanation :kalpakalpapratipädakam adhyayanaṁ kalpakalpam; tatha kalpaḥ sthavirakalpädiḥ, tat pratipādakaṁ śrutaṁ kalpaśrutam, tac ca dvidha kṣullakakalp mahākalp ca, tatrai 'kam alpagramtham alpārtham, dvittyaṁ mahāgramtham mahārtham ca. There is, therefore, no doubt but that texts of this class existed.8 858
[Vol. XVII. p. 1)
In Bühler's list there follow :
81
E. Nandisutram and F. Anuyogadvärasūtram, without any name to connect them. In Rajendra Lal Mitra, Notices of Ssk. MSS. 3,67 (Calc. 1874) and in the Ratnasagara, p. 508 (Calc. 1880) both texts are mentioned in conjunction, but at the close of the Siddhanta after the mulasūtras. In the Ratnas, the Anuyogadv. precedes. On the other hand we have already seen (p. 427 fg.) that, at the time of the three Sāmāyāris, and indeed at that of the already seen (p. 427 fg.) that, at the time of the three Sämäyäris, and indeed at that of the Vicaramṛtasaṁgraha, both texts were placed in a much earlier place of the Siddh., at the head of the painna group; though in the Vidhiprapa at least, their connection with this group is represented as uncertain (see 429").
In bearing the stamp of individuality and having a systematic arrangement, both texts have a claim to a free and independent position.
357 In the scholiast on Vicarämttasamgraha the following explanation for Jiyakappa is found in citation from the Pamcakappa: jam jassa ca pacchittam ayariyaparamparayaiviruddham | joga ya bahuvihi ya eso khalu jiyakappo u l-and the word jiyam is ibid. explained as follows:-jam bahuhim giyatthehim ainnam tam jiyam ucitam acittamity anart hamtaram vyavaharacurnipithe, jitam nama prabhutänekagiṭārthakṛta maryada tatpratipadano gramtho 'py upacarāt.
