________________ 18 Chandrabhal Tripathi 12.4 Pāțan, Sanghavinā pāṇāno bhandar (1) Siglum: Pu. Palm-leaf Ms. 111 Folia, dated23. For description see Descr.Cat.Mss. ... Pattan, compiled from the notes of ... C. D. Dalāl ... by L.Bh.Gāndhi. Baroda, Orient. Inst. 1937 (Gaek.Or.Ser.76), p.209, No.344.1 (i.e. Foll.1-111; on Foll.112ff. other texts follow). Muni Punyavijayaji (hence Siglum Pu) got the films of this Ms. prepared and then forwarded them to Hamburg; photographs of these films were used by Deleu and Schubring for MNSt.B (see MNSt.B,p.4). (2) Siglum: M. A modern transcript on paper, 233 Foll. written on one side only. For its description etc. see Hamm,p.8 and Deleu,p.3. It was got prepared by śri Keshavlāl P. Mody (hence Siglum M) and sent to Prof. Schubring24. This could be used for MNSt.B. (Its present whereabouts are unknown.) 12.5 Baroda, Muni Kāntivijayaji Bhandār Siglum: K. Paper Ms., 164 Folia (Size: 11 by 5 inches, 5 lines to a page, țabo occupies 2 to 3 lines of unequal length; 43-52 akşaras in a line; fair writing). Not dated. The original Ms. was lent, with the consent of the authorities, by Muni Punyavijayaji to Prof. Schubring. Deleu describes it to be in "excellent condition". It contains, with a tabo, Chap.I-V only; "... it appears that a continuation was never intended" (Deleu,p.4)26. 23 The correct date is given by Deleu: samvat 1454 varse aşādha vadi 10 Sanau Mahānisitha-pustakam likhitam Il. The date given by Hamm (samvat 1954!) is a misreading. It was Deleu who identified the original Ms. (Pu) with the modern transcript (M), which adds to the above-mentioned colophon of the original: patranka 111 tādapatriyall, thus indicating that folia 1-111 of the palm-leaf Ms.(Pu) contain the MNA. 24 Deleu, MNSt.B.p.3 notices a "curious colophon" on p.64 of this "Ms.": samvat 1456 varse kārttika vadi 12 soma-väre sri-Stambhatirthe (i.e in Cambay] Pancakalpa-pustakam likhăpitam asti. 25 See, however, the remark of Deleu: "No date, but the outward appearance being almost identical with that of Ms. ß in Schubring's Kalpasūtra p.16 (Berlin Ms.or.fol.2108, dated samvat 1812) makes it likely that K was written at about the same time" (MNSt.B,p.4). 26 JRK p.304 registers two manuscripts in Baroda, in Muni Hamsavijayaji's Collection, No.781 and No.1575, but not a single manuscript from Acārya Kāntivijayaji's Collection. Both, Hamsavijayaji's and Käntivijayaji's, collections were housed in the same building (Sri Ātmärāmaji Jaina Jñāna Mandira) in Narasimhaji-ni pol, Baroda, vide JRK, p.iv,No.17:BK, and p.v, No.41:Hamsa.Page Navigation
