4. Candavijaya (24) contains stories about the moon, its eclipse, distance from the earth, etc., needless to say not in accordance with Western Science.
6.
5. Ganivijaya (n.) A book of arithmetic. Devindathuoli.) Songs in praise of Indra, the highest of the gods inhabiting swarga. (Some, however, hold that these are really songs sung by Indra in praise of the Siddha).
7. Virathuo (y.) Songs in praise of Mahavira. 8. Gacchācāru (2) gives rules of conduct binding on the members of different Jaina sects.
9. Jyotikaranda rais.) A book of astrology, dreams, omens, etc.
10. A'yuhpaccakhana (24:42.) A book of the Vows which a man should take at the time of his death in the presence of a monk or nun. As these are considered too difficult for any one to perform, he is allowed in case of recovery to keep them in a modified form, and to permit of this he may take them in either a limited (lea ) or unlimited (le) form: e. g. he vows in the limited form not to lie; if on his recovery he should, nevertheless, tell a lie in the course of his daily business, he would be held to have committed the sin of lying but not that of vow breaking.
