SACRED LITERATURE OF THE JAINS
tioned, among which are all the ten members of the present list, though arranged differently, but at the end they are called only icc-ai : saṁpayaṁ painnagă: nandi 1, aņuogadārais 2..., deviņdatthaya (7)3, tamdulaveyaliya (5)4, maranasamähi 5, mahāpaccakkhāņa (9)6, aurapaccakkhäņa (2)7, sarthāraya (4)8, caṁdāvijjhaya (69, bhattaparinnā (3)10, caüsarana (1)11 viratthaya (10)12, ganivijja (8)13, divasagarapannattisaṁgahani 14, gacchāyāra 15, icc-āi painnagāņi. Of the three additional texts mentioned here No. 5 is mentioned in Āvi, and elsewhere-see p. 428 --as belonging to the painnas ; the case is similar with No. 15. No. 14 belongs to the text referred to as No. 13 in Āvi.,-a text which possesses a considerable antiquity-pp. 268, 389. Is the samgahani on it mentioned here indentical with the Jambudvipasaṁgrahani of Haribhadra mentioned p. 413 (on upānga 6)? In connection with the above discussion V. treats of the isibhāsiyaiṁ (see pp. 259, 281, 402), and allots to them 50784 ajjhayaņas. We have already observed that Haribhadra on Āv. 2, 6 identifies the isibh., quoted there, with the devendrastava etc.", but on another occasion identifies the isibh. with the uttarajjhayana. We read therefore in V. that the isibh, were regarded by some as belonging to the uttarajjh. [430] uttarajjhayaņesu eyåim amtabbhavarti, to which the mahānisihajogavihi is joined in V.
* In the Vicarāmstasargraha (see p. 355) as in the three sāmāyāri there is an enumeration of the painnagas, which begins with Nandı and Aņuoga. Nineteen and not 10 painnas are here enumerated, but of these only the first three are given a name. The passage, which is intersting for other reasons, reads in the very corrupt MSS : anga 11, upāṁga 12, chedasamgaha 5 (!) mūlagraṁtha 4 pramikhāh, pratiniyată eva graṁthāḥ kalpabhäsyädyuktasūtralakṣaṇopetāḥ,yataḥ kvā'pi yogavidhaudrśyamānesu nardy-anuyogadvārä"-turapratyakhyānādy-ekonavinsatiprakirņakeșu kesāṁ cid eva jitakalpa-pańcakalpādināṁ viracayitaro jnăyante nämagrāham, na sarvesāṁ, yeşāṁ kartāro na jnāyamte tāni gañadharakstāni. Here then, āturapratyākhyānam (2), and not devemdrastava (7), comes after nandı and anuy, at the head of the remaining painnas. Here as in Āvi the paṁcakalpa and, in connection with it, the jitakalpa seem to be counted among the painnas, whereas-see below -- they are generally held to belong to the chedasūtra,785
I have been able to discover no further information that would prove the connection of nandi and aņuoga with the painna group. The lists
784 In anga 4,44 only 44 ajjh. are allotted to them in conjuction with the devaloga
cuyabhāsiya. 785 Either the panc. or the jitak, appears as No. 6. The Vicārām, however, recog
nizes only five chedasamghas. See above.
