________________ V. APPENDICES . A. GENEALOGIES The antiquity of the separation between the Svetāmbara and Digambara sections of the Jaina community is well indicated in the following lists of the gurus or teachers preserved by them: Digambara Svetāmbara 1. Mahāvīra 2. Gautama 2. Gautama 3. Sudharma 3. Sudharma 4. Jambu 4. Jambu 5. Vişņunandin 5. Prabhava 6. Nandimitra 6. Yaśobhadra 7. Aparajita 7. Sambhūtavijaya 8. Govardhana 8. Bhadrabahu 9. Bhadrabāhu Up to the fourth successor from Mahāvīra their teachers are common. Then they diverge for about two or more generations, but meet again in Bhadrabāhu after whom there is no conformity whatsoever except in the singular instance of Samantabhadra. This teacher is placed sixteenth or nineteenth in the Svetambara lists and about 34th in the Digambara lists. The continuations of these lines given below will show beyond doubt that after Bhadrabāhu the Svetambara and Digambara lists never meet again :Digambara Svetāmbara 10. Visakha 9. Sthūlabhadra II. Proşthila 10. Arya Mahāgiri 12. Kșatriya II. Ārya Suhastin 13. Jayasena 12. Ārya Susthiţa 14. Någasena 13. Indradinna
