Under the head of pamāna, that is divided into davvao, khettao, kāla', and bhāvao, the measures of space, length of liquids, time and dry measures are treated of in extenso. There are frequent citations of lengthy passages of antique colouring, which deal in the form of a dialogue with the instruction of Goyama (by Mahavira) on this point. A very minute doctrine of atomos is also found here, see Bhagav. 2,256.971 The enumeration of the measures of time is similiar to that in the kālāņupuvvi, above page 29, the progression by 84's beginning three gradations after the quinquennial yuga. In the discussion on palovame (palyopama) we find inserted a lengthy passage from the Pannavanā (thiipaa) in reference to the duration of the continuance of creatures in their different gradations. This insertion is given in full in some MSS., in others the beginning and conclusion above are given, it being stated that it is a citation from the Pann. Not much farther on a question is introduced in the following fashion which does not seem original°72 :- tattha ņaṁ codae (codakah), prerakaḥ, prcchakaḥ) pannayayam (ācāryam) evaṁ vayāsi, and then follow questions and answers in the usual way introduced by atthi naṁ .., and haṁtă ! atthi. Later on [35] comes the dialogue between Goyama (and Mahavira), clad in an old form which is probably caused by citations.
Under the head of Gunappamāna, the first group of the bhāvappam, the nanaguņap. is said to be four-fold :- paccakkhe, aņumāne, uvamāņe, and ägame. The last is divided into loiye and louttarie. To the loiya is ascribed everything that is annanihiṁ micchäditthiehi saccaṁdabuddhimativigappiyam : tam jahä : Bharaham Rāmāyaṇam jāva (BCR, evaṁ A) cattāri a vedă saṁgovargā. Here we have a reference to an earlier enumeration. See above, pp. 9,28. We find that jam imam arahaṁtehim bhagavamtehim sayvadaristhim paņiam duvālasaṁgar ganipidagar, tam : ayare java ditthivãe is considered to be loguttarie, There are, however, other divisions of the agama ; thus, those into sutta,
