20. paccakkhananijjutti corresponds to the sixth ajjah. in Haribh., and consist of three parts :-1, A metrical section in 22 (26 B) vv.. with an enumeration of the 5 mūlagunas, 1089 2. A prose portion treating of the 12 yratas (5 aņuvr. 3 gunavr, 4 sikşăpadyr.) Haribhadra calls its sections sūtram ; this is doubtless to be regarded as a bit of the sutram, which is presupposed in the other chapters, but not directly admitted into the text of the Nijj. 3. A metrical conclusion of 74(70B) vv., which closes with the same two verses as
apter 10 There are 194 vv. verses in all given in P, but in x only 90. It stands alone in Peterson's Palm-leaf 77 (without statement as to the number of verses) and 86g (94vv.), – The prose part (nominative in e!) is directed with great vigour against the annautthiyas (anyatirthika) and against the parapasamdapasaṁsās, or the parapāsaņdasam According to Haribhadra, the Brahminical sects1040 Bhautika and Voţika (Digambara, see above p. 67) are treated of under annaüo. The 363 doctrines attacked in anga 2 are referred to under parapāsaņda. See p. 259.1041 According to H. there is no mention bere of the seven schisms. [76] He mentions also a legend (in Prakrit) of Cāņakka and Camdagutta in Padaliputta. Cf. Hemac, paris, chap. 8 and 9).

dated Dec. 1857—se Ind. Stud. 4,335 - contains the following statement extracted from the introduction of a Thibetan work edited by Wassiljew : "there are 363 different schisms in the religion of India,” Since I found nothing of the kind in the introduction of Tāranátha, which was doubtless referred to here. I had recourse to Wassiljew himself. On the 8th of October, 1883, I received from bim the following kind reply :-'I cannot inform you definitely in which of my works 3 13 Indian schools are mentioned, if at all; but it is certain that this number is frequently mentioned in Thibetan works. In Djandja Vatuktu's Siddhanta, which I have at present before me, I find the following ; "In the sutras are mentioned 96 darsana papantika (?), 141 dijakyta muluni(?) 62 injurious darśana, 28 which do pot permit salvation, and 20 which are ruinous." In Bhapia's work Tarkadjvala all the darsanas are enumerated in .110 species, 'viz'... According to my hasty count there are more than 120 names, probably because the same school is mentioned twice, i.e. in Sanskrit and Thibetan. And at the end, after mention of all 110 ( 120 ) species, we read :- in all 363 darsanas. As regards the names of those darśanas, it is too difficult for me to translate them into Russian and a fortiori into German, though, should you desire it, I will attempt it as best I may be able". I did not consider it necessary to have recourse again to Wassiljew's kindness, since, for the purpose in view, his communication was amply sufficient. It is clear from the above compared with p. 259, that it will be difficult to expect complete "agreement in detail; nevertheless the fact that the number of 363 dar fanas is common to the Jainas with the Thibetan Buddhists, is of great value.
