वंदामि अज्जनागं च गोयमं च जेहिलं च वासिटुं। विण्हुं माढरगोत्तं, कालगमवि गोयमं वंदे ॥३॥ गोयमगोत्तकुमारं, सप्पलयं तह य भद्दयं वंदे। थेरं च अज्जवई, गोयमगत्तं नमसामि॥४॥ तं वंदिऊण सिरसा थिरचित्तचरित्तनाणसंपन्न । थेरं च संघवालिय कासवगोत्तं पणिवयामि ।।५।। वंदामि अज्जहत्थि च कासवं वंतिसागरं धीरं । गिलाण पढममासे, कालगयं चेव सुद्धस्स ॥६॥ वंदामि अज्जधम्मं च सव्वयं सीललद्धिसंपन्न । जस्स निक्खमणे देवो छत्तं वरमुत्तमं वहइ ॥७॥ हत्थं कासवगोत्तं धम्मं सिवसाहगं पडिवयामि । सीहं कासवगोत्तं धम्म पिय कासवं वंदे ।।८।। सुत्तत्थ रयणभरिए, खमदमभद्दवगणेहिं संपन्ने।
देवड्डिखमासमणे कासवगोत्ते पणिवयामि ॥९॥* It is of course obvious that these găthās are added sometime after the second Valabhi council that met under the leadership of Devarddhi gani kşamāśramana, Possibly, the gathās refer in brief to the lineage to which belonged Devarddhi gani
ksamaśramana. 25. अहवादव्वायरिओ तिविहो-एगभविओबद्धाउओ अभिमुहणामगोत्तो, xxणिबद्धाउओ उजेण आउयं बद्धं,

जथासंखं आदेसो---- AvCu.I.p. 585. 26. The Nandisutra edited by Muni Punyavijaya reads Ajjānandila and not Ajja Nandila
in the Nandi sthaviravali. The correct name probably was Arya Anandila, since the editors of the critical edition by Muni Punyavijaya, Dalshukh Malvania, and Amritlala Bhojak, give only one v.1., 3touttifest and do not read Ajja Nandila from any ms. referred to by them. One does not know when the name Ārya Nandila came in currency. (could the Arya Nandi of the Dhavala-tīkā be Ārya Nandila or
Arya Anandita? -Editors) 27. See Hiralal Jain, the Satkhandāgama Vol. I, “Intro.," pp. 49-50, the Dhavala,
अ०१४४०; theJayadhavalā, अ०१२३९; theDhavala, अ० १४२९, १४५८; theJayadhavala, अ० ९७३. Also Hindi "Intro.," to Satkhandāgama, Vol.II.p. 36.

We think that this hagiological list follows the sequential order. -Editors.
