________________ E. Leumann, An outline of the Avaśyaka Literature Verse count. In reality, there is no verse count, as little as in the other Bhāsya-s. Only when dealing with the Gañadharavāda (Av.-niry. VI 1-64) the numbering of verses is listed, as a rule, after the internal colophon at the conclusion of the eleven sections. [1991-2064) ....... Gautama-nāmā prathama-ganadharah. gāthāgram 74.** 12065-2103] ................. [2104-2145] tặtīya-ganadharaḥ samāptaḥ [2146-2228] gāthā-grantha 83. [2229-2260] ................ [2261-2322] sasthah. gāthāgram 63 (!instead of 62). [2323-2343] saptamaḥ. gāthāgram 21. [2344-2363] astamaḥ. .............. [2364-2407) navamaḥ gāthāgram 44. [2408-2430] daśamah. gāthāgram 24 (!instead of 23). [2431-2483] ekādaśamah. gāthāgram 53. As already mentioned before, the verses in the available specimen are, of course, numbered interlinear from the beginning to the end. This numbering, made or arranged for by the user that indicates only every tenth line shows numerous slip-ups, which emanate from interpolations and numbering mistakes. Counted interpolations are 469'. 470'. 472'. 998". 1299lf. 3037'. 3187". 3991' (appended in the margin). - At the conclusion of the Pancanamaskāra-part (after 4020) the information gāthāḥ 4029 has been added that also presumes a second, equally wrong, counting, because according to the first, at this point, the number 4026 should result. Counted according to śloka-s, the text should have 4822 grantha-s; the complete colophon of the manuscript reads: Višeşāvaśyaka-bhāsyam samāptam .............. mangalam mahāśrīḥ. granthậgra-parimāņam sahasra 4822. Sīlānka's Text. Śīlānka's commentary exactly reflects the described [33] arrangement of the text. With him, the following main colophons can be found: after 1012: tad evam Nandi' Anuyogadvāra-praghattaś ca sodhitāiti gāthārthah. namah śrutadevatāyai bhagavatyai. 3331: tad evam upodghātaḥ samāptah. Apparently, an internal colophon is missing after 4020. In the ms. only the syllables . . lpā sūtram ity-ādi are found that have been almost completely effaced by another hand. Hemacandra writes tad evam avasitah pancanamaskāra tad-avasāne ca namaskāra-niryuktih samāptă". 1988 (Av.-niry. VI 1) - 1990 are preparatory contents, where in 1991-1996 (Av.-niry. VI 2-7) a summary overview of all eleven sections has been given. This overview at the above summation (74) has been carried over to the first section; Silänka, however, only begins the explanation of the Ganadharavāda with 1997 (Av.-niry. III 127, cp. below, p. 9), Hemacandra even only where the Bhāsya-explanations begin (with 2008). 1 A marginal note at the first stanza reads iyam vrttau na vyākhyātā na ca budhyate, one such at the second stanza has only been preserved in traces. IŚīlānka calls the stanzas 1-836" simply Nandi (because 79-835 are concerned with the contents of the Nandi). Jinabhadra also uses this title in (836 & 3458 for the Nandi-part of his work and even refers to C(ūrņi at Niry.) IX 10 f. with the words jahā Nandie to C I 14 f. - The following praghatta means coherence (of events, facts, discussions, thoughts, compound members, etc.); cp. Nemidatta's Kathakośa 58,26' tatah Sunandayā dhātryā prôktam pūrva-praghattakam, (same as ... proktam pūrva-vrttāntam ), 76,6 end jñātvā pūrva-praghattakam, comm. on Yogabindu 486° (ahi-sanka-visa-jñātāc): ahină adastasyâpi tathāvidhapraghattaka-vaśād ahi-sankā .... comm. on Yogabindu 257 (havih pūrma-priyo vipro bhunkte yat pūpik'ādy api): yad yasmāt tathāvidha-vişama-praghattaka-vaśāt pūpik'ādy api .... Sāyaṇa on AitBr. VII 13,7 (Aufrecht, p. 384). 2 ota p? 3 Optah Bbs. Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
