EDITOR'S NOTE
bhadra's AnuyogadvārasūtravȚtti, 7 accepted in the Hemacandra's Anuyogadvārasūtravștti, 1 accepted in the Anuyogadvāracūrni and Hemacandra's Vịtti, 1 accepted in Haribhadra's and Hemacandra's Vịtti are not available in the mss. of the Anuyogadvārasūtra utilized by us. Again, one variant noted in the Anuyogadvārasūtracūrni and two tikās, one noted in the Hemacandra's and Haribhadra's Vșttis, and one noted in Hemacandra's Vștti are also not found in the mss. of the Anuyogadvarasütra utilized by us. Thus in all 43 readings (40 representing old tradition and 3 noticed by old tradition) are not available in the mss. utilized by us.
Important readings available
Though the state of affairs is like this, we are helped much in our task of critically editing the text of the Nandisutra and the Anuyogadvārasūtra by the various mss. preserved in Jaina Jñāna Bhandāras and representing different traditions. This will be clear from the following seven paragraphs.
1. The interpolated readings on which the authors of the Nandicūrni and other two commentaries do not comment have found place in the body of the text in most of the mss. Yet at three places (refer to p. 6 n. 11, p. 76 n. 10 and p. 87 n. 9) in I ms. only and at one place (p. 9 n. 3 and the original reading on which this note is) in
o, #, and I mss, the concerned interpolated reading does not occur at all. This interpolated reading has been added afterwards with the sign of addition.
2. Readings accepted by the author of the Nandicūrni and found in the mss. are noted down by us as follows: one reading is found in Homs, only (p. 30 n. 4); one in Jo ms. only (p. 31 n. 3); one common reading is found in two Hlo and Jo mss. (p. 30 n. 5); one common reading is found in to, co and Jo mss. (p. 7 n. 5); and four common readings are found in o, o, o, Alo and Imss. (p. 8 n. 4, n. 6, n. 7, n. 8).
3. Oms. has given us one reading which is available in the Nandicūrni and the Haribhadrīyāvrtti (p. 14 n. 2).
4. Regarding the readings accepted by the author of the Anuyogadvāracūrni, eight readings are common to all the mss. (p. 63 r. 1; p. 71 n. 7; p. 80 n. 6; p. 123 n. 2; p. 133 n. 1; p. 135 n. 12, n. 14;
6-7. At these two places we have forgotten to mention I ms. We corrected
this mistake in the suddhipatraka after having scrutinized again the concerned portion of T ms.
