KĀRTTIKEYANUPREKŞA
सकेमाणे चउविहे चउप्पडोयारे पण्णत्ते । तं जहा। पुहुत्तवियके सवियारी, एगत्तवियके अवियारी, सुहुमकिरिए मणियट्टी, समुच्छिमकिरिए अपडिवाई । सुकस्स णं झाणस्स चत्तारि लक्खणा पण्णत्ता । तं जहा। अवहे, असम्मोहे, विवेगे, विउस्सग्गे । सुक्कस्स गंशाणस्स चत्तारि आलंबणा पण्णत्ता । तं जहा। खंती. मत्ती. महवे, अजवे । सुक्कस्सणं झाणस्स चत्तारि अणुप्पेहाओ पण्णत्ता । तं जहा। भणंतवत्तियाणुप्पेहा, विपरिणामाणुप्पेहा, असुभाणुप्पेहा, अवायाणुप्पेहा ।
2) A similar passage is found in the Ovavaiya-sutta (Sūtra 30) according to which 4 dhammakahā takes the place of 4 anuppehā; and the order of enumeration of the four anuppehās is slightly different: anicoa-a. comes first, and ega or egatta-a, stands third. Further, under Sukladhyāna also, the order is slightly different: 1 avāya, 2 asubha-, 3 anamtavattiya, and 4 viparināma-.
3) As already noted above, according to the Ovavāiya-sutta, the Internal penance is of six kinds, the fourth being sajjhāya and the fifth, jhāna. The sajjhāya is of five kinds: 1 vāyanā, 2 padipucchanā, 3 pari. yattanā, 4 anuppehā and 5 dhammakahā. In the passages referred to under 1) and 2), Anuppehā and Dhammakahā figured as alternatives in the Thanamga and Ovavaiya, but here they are separately enumerated. This separate enumeration is further confirmed by another passage of the Ovavāiya which stands thus (Sutra 31):
तेणं कालेणं तेणं समएण समणस्स भगवो महावीरस्स बहवे अणगारा भगवंतो अप्पेगइया मायारधरा जाव विवागसुयधरा तत्थ तत्थ तहिं तहिं देसे देसे गच्छागञ्छि गुम्मागम्मि फडाफर्डि अप्पेगइया वायंति भयेगइया परिपुच्छति अप्पेगइया परियति अप्पेगइया भणुप्पेहंति अप्पेगइया अक्खेवणीमो विक्खेवणीओ संवेयणीको णिग्वेयणीमो बहुविहाओ कहाओ कहति अप्पेगइया उद्दुजाणू महोसिरा माणकोटोवगया संजमेणं तवसा मप्पाण भावमाणा विहरति ।
4) The Uttarādhyayana-sutra (xxx. 30, 34) also classifies the Internal penance into six kinds, and the fourth, namely, sajjhaya is of five kinds: 1 vāyanā, 2 pucchaņā, 3 pariyattanā, 4 anuppehā and 5 dhammakahā. In the earlier chapter (xxix), Sammatta-parakkame, among the topics enumerated, sajjhāya stands at No. 18 and is followed by vāyanā, padipucchana, pariyattană, anuppehā and dhammakahā which are numbered 19 to 23. It is possible, of course, to take that these five are just the amplification of sajjhāya. The text, as already quoted above, explains at length the effect of Anuprekşā on the soul aspiring after liberation.
1) Abhayadeva explains them thus : अनन्ता अत्यन्त प्रभूता वृत्तिः वर्तनं यस्यासावनन्तवृत्तिः, अनन्ततया वर्तते इत्यनन्तवर्ती तद्भावस्तथा, भवसंतानस्येति गम्यते । ......विविधेन प्रकारेण परिणमनं विपरिणामो वस्तूनामिति गम्यते ।...... अशुभत्वं संसारस्येति गम्यते । तथा अपाया आश्रवाणामिति गम्यते ।
