Tātparyavrtti-tikā of Jayasena, edited by A. N. Upadhye, Rajacandra
Jain Shastramala, Agas, 1964. 6) “sakti-bhanita" corresponds to "sakti-samsūcita", an expression appearing
in the colophons of Amộtacandra's commentaries on the Pañcâstikāya and the Samayasāra: svaśaktisamsūcitavastutattvair
vyākhyā kļteyam samayasya śabdaih/ 7) iti śrīmad Amstacandrasūriņām křtiḥ puruşārthasiddhyupāyo 'para nāma
Jinapravacanarahasyakoşaḥ samāptaḥ/ (p. 85). 8) Dramas, for instance, are conspicuously absent in the vast Jaina litera
ture, which consists mainly of Purāṇas and Kāvyas. This is also true
of the Buddhists, who have contributed even less in the field of Purānas. 9) The following verse lists six miracles that attend a Jina :
aśokavrksah surapuspavrstir divyadhvanis camarabhāsanam ca bhāmandalam dundubhir atapatram şat prātihāryāņi jineśvarāņām//
Nitya-naimittika-pājhávali, Karanja. But these are not considered the true marks of a Jina:
devāgamanabhoyānacāmarādivibhūtayah/ māyāvişv api dpşyante nātas tvam asi no mahān//
Apta-mêmãnsä of Samantabhadra. 10) For the complete text of the Dvātrimśikā (only 21 are extant) sce
