________________ Jambu 270 Niccamamdia, Subhaddā(16), Visālā(2), Sujāyā(4), and Sumaņā(5). It lies in the centre of Jambū pedha and is at the height of eight yojanas.Anădhiya(2), the presiding god of Jambuddiva, resides on it.5 3. Jam. 90. Jiv. 151. 3. Jam. 90, Utts. p. 352. Jiv. 152. 4. Jam. 90. 1. Jambu (Jambū) Disciple of Suhamma(1), the fifth Ganadhara of Mahāvīra. He belonged to Kåsa va(1) lineage. He was the last omniscient of the current Osappiņi. Arya Pabhava was his successor. In some of the canonical texts Jambū is referred to as putting questions to Suhamma and the latter in reply recites the texts.5 Whereas in some of the canonical texts neither of the two are referred to but the opening words in them, "Suyam me āusam ! tenam Bhagavayā evamakkhāyam" are, as the commentators explain, of Suhamma in reply to the question from Jambū. 'Itti bemi' also generally occurs in the end of the chapters of the canonical works. These words, according to the commentators, refer to the end of a speech by Suhamma. Thus we find that some of the canonical works are reproduced by Suhamma in reply to the questions put by Jambū. 1 Nan. V. 23, Nir. 1.1., NisCu. II. 1 5. Jna. 5, 31-2, Upa. 2, Ant. 1, Nir. 1.1, p.360.
