Foreword It gives me much delight to get this occasion of writing a short foreword to the present edition of Ratnasekharasūri's Sirisirivālakahā undertaken by my papil Vadilal Jivābhai Chokshi. B. 4. (Hons). I was eagerly waiting for such an occasion for a long time ever since I began teaching Ardba-Māgadhi in the Gujarat College in 1923. Mr. Chokshi has made a very appropriate selection as the book is one of the most important books in the story literature in Ardha-Nāgadhi, of the Jaigas, and if the present edition receives & warm reception at the hands of the college-students and the general public, as it is expected to do, not only the editor will look upon his efforts as amply rewarded, but the students and scholars will get a sort of confidence and stimulus to do vigorous critical and original work in Ardha-Māgadhi which is a keen necessity of the day on account of several reasons. The Yas'ovijayji Jaina Granthamālā, tho Āgemodaya Samiti, the Atmānanda Jaio. Sabhā, the Sanātana Jbina Granthamālā, the Arbacemataprabhākara Käryalaya and many other institations have done and are doing an invaluable service to the spread and popularity of the Jaina Literature and Philosophy in Ardhs-māgadhi and Sanskrit. The edition's brought out by these institutions have generally been authoritaii Foreword tive, correct and reliable They have been, no doubl, of considerable help to scholars and students trained in the modern western methods of criticism and scholarship who by the use of these editions get their ground prepared for doing further work of exploring the vast field and doing research-work therein The number of Jajna students and scholars trained in the western method is gradually increasing and side by side with it, it is natural that the appetite for critical apparatus should also be on the increase Editions based on a critical examination of the Manuscript-material available and furnished with scholarly and critical notes and introduction are expected to quench the appetite, and it is no doubt a welcome feature that people have turned their attention now in that direction The present volume will have, I hope, its second edition more critical and scholarly as the editor expresses it in the preface, and it will be quite justified and reasonable on my part to expect school of critical editors opened by Mr Chokshi and his circle of friends in Ahmedabad doing A great service to the Sacred Literature of the Jainas in the modern critical way. Gujarat College K. V. Abhyankar, AHMEDABAD Professor of Sanskrit & July 1932. Ardha-Māgadhi.
· Preface. was A word of explanation is necessary for undertaking the present edition of Ratnas'ekbarasuri's Sirisiritālakahā. It is prescribed by the University of Bombay as a text-book in Ardha- Màgadhi for the First Year Arts examination, The whole of the book contains 1342 stanzas in all, but in the presunt volume there are edited only the first 400 stanzas, which form the portion prescribed for the F. Y. A. Examination of 1933. The idea of editing this book entertained by the at the suggestion of my Tevered prof. K. V. Abhyankar, under whom I passed the two most important and golden years of my college career, to whom I owe all my learning and scholarship, and who has always borne towards me fatherly love and affection by giving me invaluable help and instructions from time to time. It was under him that I leørnt the most joyaluable lessons of life. The most important qualities is him that attracted me most were his sincerity, fatherly affection towards his pupils, simplicity of life, 11 Preface and the capacity to take infinite pains which 18, ab somebody has said, 'the first and the most important quality in & gedius' In him I have found an ideal Professor who has always seen his welfare in the welfare of his students-a very high ideal which only few Professors can achieve. Hence it is that I take this opportunity, in this short preface, of paying my homage to my worthy Guru by bending down my head to him in veneration But the less said the better. Therefore, apart from this digression which can not be helped, I shall come to the subject ploper Although I entertained the idea of editing this book long ago, I was not able to commence the work soon on account of various distractions and difficulties It was however, & few months before, that began the work in right earnest The chief aim with which I undertook the work was to enable the University students to get copies of it, there being very few copies of it (published some years ago by the Agamodaya Samiti Surat ) available in the market Another consideration which goaded me to do the work was the wide spread popularity and importance of the book in the Jaina world, and the unparalleled greatnessr of the subject with which it Preface tlar in deals. It discusses the topic of the Narapada by giving us in beautifa), lacid, and simple Präkrit Forse, the life-story of king Sbripāls and his queen Jnyanasundari, which the Jainas always cherish in their hearts, especially in the days of tho Zyambıla Oil Festivals, and which has enabled the Joinas for ago 10-gether to accomplish their spiritual welfare. It is the story of king Sbripāla that has created a very high respect for the Marapada in the minds of the people; and it is the same story that has purged the hearts of many of their seseral irrparities by esborting co practise the Ayamuila penance with great fondness and delight giving up all attachment to sweetness and taste. There was a third consideration siso iz to wake this book oseful to persons interested in the study of Ardda- lāgadhi and the Jains Literature. It is with these codeiderations in viers that the work of citing this rolame her been dertaken. The test has been based mainly upon the printed text of the Āgamodaya Samiti edi tion, which is the most trustworthy being edited by the reverend Jaina Acharya Shree Sagarā- Dandavurishwarji who has earned for himself the title of " Agamoddhāraka' by his editing almost all the Āgames of the Jainas and many V Preface other important books which would hardly have been possible without bis great learning and scholarship. On account of want of time at my disposal and various other considerations I have not been able to go through the various Manuscripts which are available at some Bhandājas' and Upās hrayas'. However, I intend to do this at a later date. But in this volume I have given an exhaustive introduction, having collected all available and useful information about the satbor, his works, his date, his Gachchha, his predecessors and his pupils o c I have traced the origin of the story literatore of the Jainas and have explained the purpose etc. of the author in writing it. For the benefit of the students I have given also a brief summary of the portion prescribed from the story, and at the end of the introduction I have instituted comparison between Suivālakahã and Kummāputta so that the students might have & comparative study of the two books. Over and above the introduction I have given a word for yord English translation of the text, and full explapatory, critical, and grammatical notes in English-which is a special feature of this book. One more special feature is the illustration of the Siddhachakra or the Navapada Preface wbich is given on P. 8 of the notes. In the boginning thore has also been given a short forevord by Prof. K. V. Abhyankar for which I am groatly indebted to him. Here I must also espress my gratefulness to Sjt. Mohanlal Dalichand Dacai, B.A.L.L.B. Advocate who bas furnished me with some valuable information about tho author, his works, and predecessors etc. dfy thaoks are also due to Divānbabādar K.H. Dhruva who helped me in anderstanding tho metros that are discussed at the end of the introduction, For purposos of translation and notes thero was taken at several places the help of the taraf (i. e, the commentary) published in the Agatodaya Samiti Edition, the name of its author being nut definitely known. In his Uped. gbāta' in the Agsmodaya Somiti Edition, hossover, the reverend Acharya Sāgarānandasiriji says that 'there is a belief that the self is written by Shree Kshmākalyānaba ( 57AY- 454Ufafa TT"). Some help has also been received for certain explanations and notes from some Jaina Sãdhus and friends. My thanks are also due to Messrs. B, G. Parekh, S.A. Kapadia and Sarabhai Nastab who helped me in making fair copies of my original dotes and trans-

Introduction 1. The story of Shripāla occupies & very The importanon important and prominent place of the story in the Story Literature of the Jainas. It is looked upon with such great reference and eacresness by them that it has become enshrined in the hearts of all the Jainas-young and old, from very ancient times. Its popularity and greatness can be seen from the zeal and devotion with which they read in the days of the Ayambila Olis--and translate into action the aceful spiritual lessons which they learn from the Räsa of King Shripala or Shripala Charirra, composed by the great Upadhyāras Vinayavijayaji & Yas'ovijayaji and based on our author Ratpasekharasări's Şirisiri çālakaha, the very text that is edited in this rolame. Its greatness can also be seen from the fact that our author puts it is the mouth of the Great Sage Gautamaskāmi, the first Ganadlara of Lord Vabāyira, who rereals it to the well knoten Jaina King Sbreniks rho 125 an ardent adherent of Jainism. This is done, evidently, not only to create an atmosphere of antiquity 2 Introduction round the story, but to convey home to the readers the supreme greatness and importance of the topic with which it deals, implying that even such a great sage as Gutamaswami himself testified to it by emphasizing it to his devout follower king Sbrenika 2 But what is that great topic which makes The topic of the story also great? It is the Navapada the Navapada the most sacred and significant expression in Jainism, which gives in brief the sun and substance of the whole of the Jalna Religion It connotes the nine most important Padas or Dignities in Jainism Congisting of Panchaparameshthe (the Five High Souls)-viz the Arihanta (or the larthankara or the Jina), the Sıddha, the Acharya the Upadhyaya and the Sadhu-and the Four-fold Rel gron consisting of सम्यग्दर्शन, म्यगज्ञान सम्यक्चारित्र Right Faith, Right Knowledge, Right Character and Penance (All these Nine Dignities are fully explaired in notes on St 1 ) The Panchaparameshth z are regarded as the magis (1o the establishers or founders ), the 1990 (1. e governers) and retais (1 e the propagators) of the various doctrines and principles of Jainism such as the Jiyavichara, the Nine Tattvas, the Karma and तप 1 Introduction 3 Thoory and the well-known Spädrāda of tho Jainas etc, which creato in the hearts of tho peoplo B love for the Four-fold Religion mentioned above. The Arihanias are the sets, the Acharyas are thodach and the Sadhus are the प्रचारफs, Cultivating a true and irm Faith (धरा) in tho Vino Dignicies by undorstanding them proporly by studying their gunas or qualities otc, is an indispensable thing to those who want to attain Perfection and reach Liboration. Once a firin Faith is created in them and in thc words and scriptures propounded by bem, tho *jiva 'obtains what is known ! Bodhibija or Samyalta i, e. Enlightenment. It is zaid in the नवतत्यप्रकरण verses 51, 52 "जीपाइनवपयत्ये, जो जाणइ तस्स होइ सम्म । भावेण सद्दहतो, अयाणमागेऽवि सम्म । सन्वाई जिणेसरभासिया वयणाई नानदा हुंति । ए बुद्धी अस्समणे, सम्मतं निच्चलं तस्स ॥" 3. To enable and help the people of this torld Tho three main in obtaining this Samyallra claeree of the 31988' or Bodhibija, thus making it easy for them to traverse the path of spiritual Telfare without any hindrance and resch Liberation Tras one of tha most important things that the Jaina Teachers or Achārgas of old franted to accomplish. For achieving tbis purpose, thes Idtroduction thought it necessary to adopt different methods of imparting knowledge to different divas' or souls according to their capacities of grasping and understanding things Hence they divided the souls into three main classes viz Target or those who put complete faith in their preceptors and their preachings and always act according to their advice, (2) algerit or those who put faith in their preceptors and their preachings after giving a full scope to their powers of reflection and reasoning, and (3) araigard or those who come to acquire Faith by reading stories and lives of great persons Wo find even to-day that all the souls of the world fall under one or the other of these tbree main classes 4 As for the Shraddhanusaris, the Acharyas had no angjety, for they always The origin of the have an inborn belief in the story literature of the Jaibas Nino Digoitres etc As for the Tarkapusaris, they (1 e, the Acharyas) have always paid proper attention to them for whom they have composed impor tant Sutras and various other religious books which expound the principles of fundamental truth and discuss the questions which enable the soul to understand the true nature of this Jot.pduction 5 worldy life, the greatness of Ahsma Dharma (pon-injury to any of the six kinds of living organisms ) consisting nf renunciation and asceticism, the nature of Karma which binds the soul aod makes it poder in this miserable spordis oxistence, ind the way in which its complete Destruction can be brought about-thus enabl ing the soni to zot itself completely released from the bondage of Karma and reach Final Beatitude Fully under tanding and fo.lowing these principles, the Tarhanusaris are enabled to accomplish their spiritual welfare They are thus the most intelligent and b, st of the 'jivas,' 1€ a firm Faith be cultivated in them, and that is the reason why oven to-day we find that tho Jana Preacher-Sadhus always give a due impo rtance to them 10 the first half «f the r daily sormons in which they propound the principles expounded by the Achāryas of old Their oum ber is, however, greatly limited the Shraddha. nugaris being met with in the world in greater pumber than the Tarbānusaris Bat the number of the Charitanusâris 13 still greater, because the vast majority of humanity are always guided in their actions by hearing and reading stories and lives of great persons whose examples they always follow. Bearing this 8 2 6 Introduction m&35 in mind and wishing to do good to the vast majority of humanity at largo, the Jaina Achāryas of old attached greater importance to them and adopted the method of writing stories and lives of great persons which they call charitas, Lathas, or kathānnhas, and akhyanas etc, and to-day also we find that the Jaina Sadhus reserve the latter half of their sermons for telling such stories or kathānalas composed by the Achāryas of old and in expounding them in order to impart religious teaching and knowledge to the common at large who hear the stories with great attention and interest. The voluminous Story Liferature that the Acharyas of old have produced is rich both in 11- terary and didactis qualities, & special feature of which is the high enotions and gentiments with which they are lader and the jofallibility of their appeal to the hearts of the readers and hoarers. 5. As we have 8311 in the beginning Rataas'ekharasfuri's Sirisirivālakabā or The place of 81. nyalakahā 20 All hayana, as it is called by the story litera. Gautamaswami, occupies & very ture of the Jainas important and prominent place in this Story Literature of the Jainas. There are, no doubt, many other Introduction equally important Lathas in Jainism such as the Story of Varadatta and Gunamadjar), the Story of Abhayakumara, the Story of Ilachputra, the Story of Karmaputra eta, but this 13 10 à ray'a pet story of the Jainas. It is be cause of the greatness of the topic with which at deals As the poet hinself says, through the mouth of Gautamaswami who says to Ling Shrenika to whom he reveals the story, in Verse 36 12 "तो भणइ मुपी निसुणुसु, नरवर । अक्साणय इम रम्म । सिरिसिद्धचक्षमाहप्पसुदर परमचुनकर ॥ Then the sage cald -ob king 1 lieur this beautiful story which is charming on account of the greatness of the Siddhchahri, and which excites great wonder (in our hearts )" The greatness and importance of the story 15 also due to the literary and didactic qualities which it posse8583 6 The purpose of the author in writing the story is the same Aathor & purpose pounded before viz to convey ID writing the story home to the readers the great ness and importance of the Navapada or the Siddhuchara and 90 18 Or- 8 Introduction study it in the game light. The author himself reveals his purpose of writing the story in the very first verse of the book where he ways:- "अरिहाहनवपयाई, झाइत्ता हिअयकमलममि । सिरिसिद्धचक्कमाहप्पमुत्तमं किंपि जपेमि ॥" Having contemplated in the lotus-like hoart the Nine Dignities suoh 28 the Arhat. etc., I shull speak a little about the most elevnteil greatness of the Siddhachakra (or The Circle of the Sacred Ones ;.” While reading the story it also appoirs that the author wants to lay a greater stress on Bhava or extremely pure montal condition and Ayambıla Penance. stio» has also been laid on the effect of Karma also. Moreover, by writing this story the author wants to show the superiority of tho Jana Religion over the Suiva and other religions, just as tho Mahābbārata stories show tho superiority of the Brahmadic Religion over other religijns. 7. The greatness of the Vavaparla has been omphasized in striking Tords Tho greatnece of the Vatrpada. by Gautamasıāmi, the narrator of the story himself in versos 16 to 34 which are briefly summarized Introduction 9 on pages 30 and 40 of the notes. It is again further emphasized by the Sage Munichande before King Shripāla and bis queen Madanasundari in Sts. 190 to 194, 206 to 225 and 238 to 242. What does he bay ? Ho says that the propitiation of the Siddhachakra formed by the Nine Dignities is the only faultless and sinless remedy for removing all the pains, niseries and diseases of this world. It is the root-cause of all our happiness of this as well as the next world. In short, it is the One Supreme Thing which constitute; the very essence of the whole of the Jaina Religion, As the author says in St. 192:- "एएहिं नवपरहि, रहिअं अप्नं न अस्थि परमत्यं । एएसुच्चिस जिणसासणस्स सबस्स अवयारो ॥" Hence it is due to the power of the propitiation of the Narapada that many a soul were enabled to be emancipated in the past, Bro enabled at present and will be enabled to be so in fatare, and thus obtain the lordship of all the three worlds by their attaining to the position of A Tirthankara or & Siddha. The Navapada is thus a Desiro-giolding Tree which fulfils the desirds of the wiads of those who propitiato it. It is said to be the very 10 Introduction accom esgence of the Tenth Pûrva called Vidyānuvada and it has the porter, if it is well propitiated, to enable us to accomplish the eight great Siddhıs or supernatural porers such as Animo (or the power of becoming as small as an atoni ), Laghınā (or the power of assuming excessive lightness at will etc ) He who propitiates it with puie meditation accompanied with penance accomplishes large destruction of Karma But there 18 no wonder, enys tho poet, that by the propitiation of the Siddhar chalra all the great Suldhrs otc. Ura plished, because by worshipping it is obtainod even Moksha or Final Beatitude Hence it 23 that the poet says in veree 210 एयं च परमतत परमरहस्सं च परममतं च । परमत्थं परमपयं, पन्नत परमपुरिसेहिं ॥" * This ( 1 the Siddhachalra has been declared by tho Tirthankaras ( lit Supromo Be inge) to be the Greatest Truth (Tatra) the Greatest Secrel, the Greatest Spell the Greatest Thing and the Greatest Paula' But stop and reflect Con each and every Lind of man propitiate the Siddhachakra and achieve all these things ? Yo', says tho poet, Only that man can do so who is possessed of forgiveness, self-control and freedom from passions Ho Introduction 11 alone can become the worshipper of the Sıdda chakra, hilo a man who 18 possessed of opposite qualitlas becomes its insultor or Viradhala 88 ke is called Hence he who wants to be a true worshipper of the Siddhachakra, whether a monk or & householder, should make his mund totally free from passions and should observe pure celibacy and character, because ho who worsbips it with an impure wind, though its propitiator, instead of bringing to himself his desired object and happines, undoubtedly brings bim misfortune But if a person propitiates it with a pure mind and if any wicked person thiphs of doing anything wrong to him, that wicked person instead of duog so, brings wrong to himself Hence a person wishing to do good to himself should worship the Siddhnchalra mith a pure and delightful mind, keeping pure celibacy together with practising the penance of Āyambila fasts and observing proper religious rites Jf he will do so with a pure montal condition, he will get all the pros. porities oven of gods and excellont human beings, Even formidable disesses fuch as indigestion, consumption, fover, fistula, gout, will novor come to him and if they have come to him before he propitiated the Sradhachakra tber 12 Introduction will at once be destroyed. Moreover, by worshipping the Siddhachakra he will saffer no misfortune such as slavery, servitude, having no art, having impaired or defective organs of sense, blindness, a degraded body, & degraded famıly etc In the case of a woman the misfortune of being not liked by her husband, bein: 8 poison maid, a whore, & widow, a barren woman, a woman bearing a dead child eto will never come to her In short such as the greatness of the Navapada or the Siddbachakra that by worshipping it the 'jiyas' are always able to fulfil the desired objects of their minds, and there 18 no doubt about that Again such is the greatness of the Navapada, says the poet further, that by its propitration all the epils such as wicked planets, demons, ghosts and witches etc of those high souls who are possessed of a pura mental condition, disappear at onco Moreover, by the propitiation of the Navzpıda all the dangors from water, fire, serpents, and beasts of prey, the pains from poisout and calamities such as excessive rain, drought etc and diseases such ag pla que etc which brng death to the bipeds and quadrupeds--all these do not remain the world Moreover, oven barren women get Intreduction 13 name, date, ot going any external sons, even the children of nindus (1.c. women bearing dead children) become alive and play with joy, the defects of the stomach disappear and all other kinds of misfortuno perish. Thus such is the elevated greatness of the Siddhachakra or Navapada upon which the author has based his whole story. 8. As regards the author, it is a matter of great pleasure that we have The author, his not to take the special trouble to Gachchha, source for information about predecessors and pupils etc his namo or date as is often the case with regard to many Sanskrit pouts like Kālijāsa and others. The author himself has given as definite information about his name and date etc, in Sts. 1340, 1341 where he says: * सिरिवजणगणहरपट्टपरहेमतिलयसूरीणं । सोसेहिं रयणसेहरसूरीहि मा हु संकलिया ॥ तस सहेमर RETT मि। चउदसअट्ठावीसे लिहिया गुरुभत्तिकलिएणं ।। From this internal evidence we come to know that the name of tbe author is Ratna. sekharaşüri and that he fourished in the fourteenth centory A. D., as it is stated that 14 Introduction he composed Siriyalakaha in Samvat 1428 10 1362 A D Moreover, Ratpas ekhara here states bimself as the pupil of Vajrasena and Hematılaka and as we shall see later on, it 13 clearly stated in the last verse of our author's gurrait trecare that Ratnas ekhara vas tie pupil of Vajrasena and a successor of Hematılaka who was tho Pattadhara successor of Vajrasona Our author bere calls himself the pupil of both Vajrasena and Hematılaka ouly in order to shut his respect for the latte, bat as a matter of fact, he was the pupil of Vajrasona and a successor of Hematılaba [The compound सरिवज्जसेणगणहरपट्टपह हेमतिरयसूरीण Is tolved by the commentator of Sirivalahaba as follows "श्री वज्रसेनगणधराणा-श्रीवजसेनसूरीणा पट्टस्य-प्रभव स्वामिनो ये हेमतिल्कसूरयस्तेपा (शिष्यै श्रीरत्नशेखर alifa ) ", thus making Ratnas ekhniasuri the pupil of Homatılakasır. But from the facts stated above, this appears to be a wrong solutio The correct way of solving the compound 19 -श्री यज्रसेनगणधरश्च (तस्य) पट्टप्रभु-हेमतित्पश्च तेषाम् 1 e तयो (शिष्यै श्री रत्नशेखरसूरिमि )-and this solution is quite in keeping with the cuplanation given above ) L Introduction 15 " From this internal evidence we also come to know that he had & pupil named Hemachandra This much is the important information that we get from our text.

This, it appears, relates to the ta in respect of the fa dealt with in Sirivālakahā, and one 11. Before closing this topic of the author and his works etc. One more Two Ratna'se important point remains to be kharasuris made clear. Thero have been two Ratnas'ekbarasûris-one our author about whom we have already discussed everything, the 52nd Pattadhara in the Múla Tapa-gachchha Paltārali, who flourished in the 16th century, who was the successor and pupil of Munisundarasūri the 51st Pattadhara in the Müla Tapāgachchha Pattavali, who possessed the title of Balasaraswati, who lived as 32 Acharya from Sariyat 1502 to 1517 and who was also the author of several works such as श्राद्धप्रतिक्रामणवृत्ति (Samvat 1496) थाविधिसवृत्ति (Sarvat 1506) Tariatu (Sauvat 1516 wyra ATTE Otc. It should be remembered that author Ratnas'ekharasüri, who was a pupil of Vajrasenasari of Nagori Tapāgachchha and who flourished in the 14th century, is quite different from this second Ratnasekharasīri who Our 1 26 Introduction uas a pupil of Munisundarasűri of the Müla Tapagachchha and who Aourished in the 16th century. 12. So far as is known to the editor, nobody has been able to trace the story Our author the of Shripāla to any other origifirst originator of the story nal source and in point of time Ratpasekharasuri's Sirivālakabā is the earliest story about Shripāla If that 18 true, our author can be said to be the first originator of the story. This inforonco is supported by the author's description of the Siddhachakrayantroddhār, by giving which he saved the Sıddhachakrayantra from oblivion. Therefore, most probably Ratnasekharasūri's Sirivalakabă is the first and earliest composition on the life and history of King Shripāla, and it has become the direct or indirect source of 80 many Sanskrit and Gujarati works which are composed oven upto the 19th century. 13.

In the country damed Magadha where origivated tho Tirths of Lord Mabāvira, there was a city named Rajagrha where ruled the wellkuown Jaina King Shrenika. He had a chief queen named Nanda who had an excellent son named Abhayakumārs. He had also a second wife named Chillană bo had the oldest son damed Asogachachanda (i. e. Kūdika) and The story 30 Introduction other two sons named Halla and Vihalla He had many other queens such as Dharni eto and many other clever sons Once upon a time Lord Mabapira, who was moving upon the surface of the earth on on bis religious journeys, arrived at a city, situated in the vicinity of Rajagrha For the spiritual benefit of the people of Rajagrha he sent the sage Gautama bis first Ganadhara, to that city (Le to Rajagrha ) Having heard of Gautama's arrival, all the people of Rajagtha, including the king, forthwith came to the garden with all their grandeur, und having bowed down to him they took their proper seats Then the Reverend Sage Gautama, in yoice as profound as the sea preached to them tbe nature of true religion and the greatness of the meditation on the Siddhachakra formed by the Nine Digpities or Nayapada worshippiog which, he said, a man obtains real happiness like King Shripala After this brief introduction, the poet comes to his story proper King Shrenika asks Gautamsyamı as to who was this King Shripala and how did he obtain real happiness, by & Introdaction 31 adoring the Siddhachakra; and Gautamsyni, therefore, narrates to him the story of King Shripala in the following manner. In the famous country of Mālvà there was an excellent city named Ujjaini There ruled King Prajāpāla. He had two very beattiful clever queens named Sohaggasundari and Ruppasundari respectipely. Sohaggasundari was born in the family of the worshippers of S'iva and hence she was & heretic. Ruppasundari, on the other hand, yas the daughter of & Sbrāyaka and hence she was & believer (in the Jaina Faith). They were of the same age and possessed of the same grace and beauty; and eventhough they Co-ives, they were generally attached to one another. Bat once when they were thinking over the nature of religion existing in their individual minds, there was a great disagreement between them even as great as the differopce between Dectar and poison. In the meanwhile, both of them, enjoying with the best of kings various kinds of amorous sports, became pregnant in a sport time and at the propor time daughters were bom to both of them and they were given the names Sarasuodari and Mayanasundari respecti- Tely. Thon when it was time for their study were 32 Introduction a they were entrusted by the king to the two preceptors Sivabhuti and Subuddhi who were proficieat in the S'aira and the Jaina doctrines respectively. Surasundari learnt various sciences and arts. But 'as is the preceptor, 60 is the pupil'. Hence as her preceptor was heretic she also turned out to be 80 and became puffed up with pride. Mayanasundari also learnt all the arts and sciences, and sho was 80 trained by her preceptor who was proficient in the Jaian Doctrine, that she also became well-versed in it and came to acquire the virtues of pure discrimination, docorum etc. blessed with the gift of religion. As her tescher was possessed of intellect, tranquility, and self-restraint, she also came to acquire those virtues. Gradually both, Surasundari and Mayanagundari attained to youth. Surasundarî was, then, asked by her father to choose her own husband and selected Aridamana the son of Damitarî, the King of Ujjaini, Mayanasundari was also asked to choose her own husband. But she who had acquired pure discrimination by her study of the essence of the thoughts and the words of the Jina, and who was Introduction 33 * Oh 7 possessed of the yirtue of modesty did not speak, and, therefore, being asked again by the king she, having smiled a little, said father | 18 it proper that you, who are endoned with discrimination, ask me this question (It 19 not proper,) because noble born girls do not sav such things as ' let this be my husband' But to them, he who is given to them by their parents, is 10deed I welcotne Still, borover, here in the question of giving a husband or wife, oven parents are merely an instrumental or apparent cause and not an efficient one, because generally the union between souls as busband and wife is already decided by our actions of previous births Whatever I arma, good or bad, is accumulated by a jiva at a particular time, that karna of his comes into effect at another particular time as if tied down with a string That daughter who is possessed of many werita, oponthough given in a lovy faxrily, becomes happy, and that daughter who 18 devoid of merits, oven though given in a noble family, becomes miserable' The king was greatly dis pleased at this and told that it was due to his tavour that sho was enjoying beantıful dress and ornaments etc and bow was it that she dared to say like that Mayan, retorted tlat 34 Introdnotion she was born in his house on account of the merit of good deeds practised by her ia her previous birth and hence it was that she was experiencing all those pleasures From that day the king became her greatest enemy be cause she believed that anything, good or bad, was done to her by her karma and did not believe that anything was done by the kingher father who, he thought, was thus belittled by her She was, therefore, married to a prince of the lepers, and Mayank with a delightful mind, while going with Umbara, that prince of the lopers, was not at all dejected at heart. But as good luck would have it, this Umbara was none else, but prince Shripala, the son of king Sinhartha and his wife Kamalaprabha who, after the death of her husband deserted bis kingdom with her two years' child Shripāla, on account of the fear of Ajiyagena her husband's brother, who later on usurped his brother's kingdom, and in the favourable company of a multitude of lepers, went to Ujjain, and passed her days there bringing her son up to youth by means of the wealth obtaiged by selling her ornaments But unfortunately her son was at this time attacked with the disease of leprosy, and therefore she having entrusted her son to Introduction 35 some neighbour went to the city of Kosambi for getting the medicine of the disease of her son from a physician there who, as somebody told her, was Fell-yorsed in curing all the eighteen varieties of the disease of leprosy, and haying learnt there that he had gone on a pilgrimage, she waited for him there in Kosambi for a few days. In the meanwhile she came to know from a Jains ascetic there (who was possessed of avadhi' knowledge ) that her son Tas taken by that multitude of the lepers and was made their king. And that not be had become the husband of Mayanasundæri, the daughter of the king of Malaya. He also forther told ber that bis disease was also dow completely cured on account of the power of propitiation of the Vayapada the greatness of which they came to know from & Jaida Hani named Munichands, who kner very well Vaganā who was greatly devoted to the feet of the Jins and who told him all her account. The Bage also, in order to remove the pain of Jayană and to cure the disease of her husband, showed them the Andradyo-the faultless (ie sinless) remedy of propitiating the Siddhachakra.

Puntapāla, Kamalaprabhā, king Prajāplāa and
all came to know this and there was & great
praise about Mayanā that she was a great

Shripāla to his palace with great celebrations,
honoured thom by giving them much wealth etor
and Shripala with his wife and motheç

enjoying all kinds of pleasures and happiness,
Now in the meanwhile it so happened
that on a certain day, while the prince Shri.
pāla with his retique was moving in the city of
Ujjaivi like a prince of gods, a certain villager
asked & citizen who that prince was and the
latter replied that he was the 800-in-law of the
king (Prajāpāla). Hearing this prince Shripāla
was greatly dejected at heart because he did
not like that he should be known by the.
name of his father-in-law because it is said in
the Nitisastra that those persons are the best
who become famous by their own merits; those
who become famous by the name of their
father are of the middle type; those who become
famous by the name of their mother are lov.
Introduction 37 88me 1 and those who become famous by the name of their father-in-law are the lowest of all. He, therefore, returned home with a pale faco, bis mother asked him the reason of his dejection, bjp explained the to ber and having persuaded his wife aod his mother he decided to go to foreign countries in order to earn sealth and strength for regaining the kiogdom of his Father Sinharaha. He started at an auspicious moment, vaidered at various places and after some time came to a forest where underneath a beautiful Champaka tree he saw & certain Sadhakr and helped him in accomplishing the Vidya given to him by his preceptor. In return that Sadhaka gave him two medicinal herbs, Jalatarini, and Paras'athhanitärini-one which enabled a man to go safely through water, and one which enabled le man to erade the Yeapons of the enemy respectively. Then tho Sudhala took him to the declivity of a mountain where he helped certain mineralogists in {ccomplishing the gold-producing, liquid. They thanked him much and offered him gold, and though he was indifferent to the taking of it, they tied some of it to the skirt of his garment. Then the prince moving through various places radually came to the city of Broach irbera 38 Introduction . aushe bought clothes, ornaments and weapons etc. by selling that gold. Now in the city of Kosambi there lived a very rich merchant named Dhavala who had come to the city of Broach accompanied by merchants and even though he made & very big profit there he was intent upon going to a distant shore on account of the covetousness of wealth, and therefore, for that purpose he made ready 400 ships. Then in an picious moment Dhavale embarked on those ships but they did dot move in spite of the sailors' trying to do so. Then Dhayala got down, went into the city and asked a sikottari (a female evil spirit) the reason of the ships': not moving and he was told that they were stopped by a god and would move only if possessed of thirty two auspicious marks on the body were given in oblation to that god. Dhavala having satisfied the king of Broach with presents etc. took permission from him for catching hold of such a man. The king allowed him to do so on a condition that such a man must be a foreigner and most be helpless (i, e, without & guardian etc). Obtaining this pormisson from the king Dhavala ordered . his men to find out such a man, who after a a man Introduction 39 . were gTest search succeeded in finding out Shripala to be exactly such a man as they required Dhovala again obtained the permission of the king and sent his soldiers to captare him. They tried to do so bat on heating the roaring noise prdaced by the prince, they ran away. The army sent by the king, being impelled by Dhavala, was also defeated by the prince in 10 time. Here ends the portion edited in this yolame ,16. The form and style of the story are like those of epic poetry and remind Form, style and os of Mabābhārata and such author of Sirivz lakabă compaother stories. Its diction is si. red with tho-e mplo, lucid and easy to grasp, of Kummaputta. and adds to the beauty of the story. The author has troven his story in such a beautiful and charming manner that the interest of the reader is sustained throughoat from beginning upto the end, The language that he has ased in composing most of his verses is simple and reminds us of the verses of Anantahansa's Kummāputta. However, the excelent literary and didactic qualities which Ratnas'eshara's Sirivāla tabā possesses are not to be met with in Kummā. patte. Though the yerses are simple and easy & 40 Introduction is both, yet the riebness of imagination, thought and espression which are found in Sirivālakahā are rarely to be seen in Kummāpatta. Again Sirivālak ahā 'is rich both in quality and quantity, whereas it is not so in the case of Kummāputta which lacks, more or less, in both. Moreover, the author of Kummāputta does pot appear to be so great a scholar and voluminous writer as the author of Sirivālakahā. In originality also Ratnas'ekhara far more surpasses Anantahansa, for so far as it is known upto now Sirivālakahá appears to be the origibal composition of Ratnas'ekhara, whereas Anantahanea has borrowed his story from S'tibbavardhana's version of Kummāputta which is commentary in Sanskrit on the original source Rsmandala of Dharmaghosa (St. 125 ). A comparison of other works composed by both also leads us to the same conclusion that the agthor of Sirivālakahā is far more original, voluminous and scholarly than the author of Kummäputta, 17. The scholarship and learning of Ratnas’e- The literary and kharasûrí are also seen from the special features various literary and special feaof Sirivalakha which are tures that are found in Sirivālskabā itself. They are as Kuumāputta follows. a absent 22 Introduction 41.

(5) The fifth feature is the use of difficult stanzas at random in the toxt, which contain the descriptions of countries and cities, the des. cription of the marriage ceremony of Surasundari, the prayer-song" to Lord Rşbha by Mayanasundari, etc. In Kummāputta vo get one or two such descriptions but they are not 80 remarkable. (6) The sixth more important and highly creditablo feataro is the description of the Recitation Rite of the Siddhachakrayantra (Sts, 196 to 206), which, as the author Boys, has been extracted from the Tenth Pürra called Vidyanurada, and thus saved from oblivion. * These various terms require fairly long explanations and they are given in the potes on the Sts. wherein they occur. For further details on the Siddhachakrayantrs aad its Recitation Rite refer to the notes on Sts. 196 to 206.
Introdaction 43 (7) The seventh feature is the Apabhrens's verses (Sts. 73, 76, etc.) which contain the sola. tion of the riddle which the two princesses Sarasundari and Mayanasundari were asked by their father King Prajāpals to solve, and so 01. In Kummāpatta also two such Apabhrans'& verses are used which give the description of the birth festival of Kammāpatta. But in this respect also, the verses ased in the former appear to be of & superior qoality than those used in the latter from a literary point of view because in the former the dialect is the pure Apabhransa dialect whereas in the latter though the stanzas appear to be written in Apabbhrans's they resemble old Gujarati, 29 Diwanbahādara. K.'H. Dhruve also holds, (8) The eighth feature is the frequent 'use of grammatical formas like forente fazat which is explained' in notes on St. 20 and the mastery of the anthor over various grammatical pecuharities. (9) The ninth feature is the use of certain pure Sanskrit words and phrases, which we term Sanskritism. Throughout the whole text it appears that the writer of this Prakrit book Iatroduction has also got a mastery over Sanskrit and is well acquainted with the relation betireon Sanskrit and Prakrit Dialects, (10) The tenth feature is the use of various Temaets or good sayings which are collected and given at the end of this edition, (11) The eleventh and the last feature is the motre that is used in the text. The general metre running through the whole text is the Bime as that which is used in Kuñmāputta also viz, the truf metre which consists of 30 and 27, Mātrās or syllabic instants in the first tivo and the last two Padas respectively, there being 4 Padas in all. ( For a further detailed explanation on आर्या metre refer to वृत्तरत्नाकर). In addition to this Ratnas'ekhara has made use of some other metres also e. g. the urgens metre which is used in the description of the marriage ceremony of Surasundari. It consists of 4 Padas each Pada containing 16 syllabic instants, the last letter of each, which is a determinant, being always necessarily long, and there being stress (***) on the 1st, 5th, 9th and 13th syllabic instants. In Guj. this yra mêtre métreris more popularly, known as "149.' Besides, there is also used in the prayor-song, to hord Rsable by mayendudan the train metre w Introduction 45 Lord Rsabha by Mayanasundari the पन्झडिआ, hetra which is often met with in Prakrit Láterature. It consists of 4 Padas, each Pada containing 16 syllabic instants, there bging stress the 3rd, 6th, 11th and VAth syllabic instants. These very good singable metres and can be appreciated by those who know the science of music. on TO 18. From all this our discussion it appears that in literary qualities Kummā Superiority of Sirivālakala putta is quite meagre and inferior ter Kammāpatta when compared to Sirivālakshā. In didactic qualities, also, Sirivälakaba surpasses Kummāpatta because the appeal made by the former is far more greater Jhan that made by the latter. No doubt, Kammāpatta has succeeded in laying stress on Bhava or the extremely pure mental condition which is also emphasized in Sirivalakahā. But the latter, Bhava is not the main thing that the author wants to emphasize, but it is be greatness and importance of the Navapada emphasizing which he has achieved a far reater success than Anantahansa has dong emphasizing Bhava, Thus in conclusion can say that Ratnas’okhara's Sirivālakahā
46
Introduction
far surpasses Anantahansa's Kummāpatta both
in literary and didactic qualities, and this is
but quite natural because the author of the
former far surpasses the author of the latter

doing so, the editor would like to wish, after

as long as the sun and the moon shine in heaven
let this story as well as its readers prosper.

(5) Whose chief queen was Nanda by name, she having an excellent son named Abhayakumāra, endowed with many virtaes and a store of four kinds of talents. (6) He had a second wife name 1 Chillana, the daughter of king Chedaya, who had (the eldest) son named Asogachanda (i. e. Kunika) and (the other two sons named) Hala and 'Vihalla. (7) He had many otier queens such as Dham Tani and others, and many clever sons who were devoted to the foot of their parents.

Thus theirs is a very unique place in the Jaina worship and devotion, and the incessant flow of their eternal adoration, from ancient times, has remained up flinching even up to-day. This is quite evident from the two great religious festivals, .. which the Jains (especially the orthodox) so devoutly obserye very magnificently and reve rentially eren to-day, in the months of Chaitra and Ashwin, known as rufe siets when they keep what are known as "Āyambila' fasts (which consist in taking rough (4*) and tasteless (8) food devoid of ghee, sugar, oil, wilk and all such tasty articles of eating which create passions, and which we generally take every day—and this fuod, too, is to be taken only once a day). It is, therefore, essential for tis, as students of the Janna Literature, to study properly all these nine great and important Di-l goities, and have a clear conception of s}l of them, so that we may have a fair idea of what constitutes the essence of the Jaina Religion.

They sro aloogison by Haribhadrasuri as he say, in his conimentary on the Āvas'saka Sutra, as he bag not given them in his commentary on the Tandilltra on account of the fear of length, If we were to give at length all these stories an full details, it would make a whole separate volume Hence being satisfied by only odame rating them as above we shall bere tale tho first story from each of the four lists of illus trations, and give four stories in details in order to illustrato the four buddhis' respectively Those desirous of knowing all of them in de tails should refer to the two commentaries mentioned above The four illustrations that are to bo giren here are .- (1) FETE (SL.

But all these 13 illustrations cannot bo giron horu for four of arnocessarily lengthening the notes. Henco tho recond illustration of fire alono, (the first illostration of tho dancer (Sk. a) is not giron be cause it is not so intorcating and does not so well and exqui-itely illustrato tho Aplpattiki Buddhi), is given hero. It is as follows:-- Thero tas al city bamed Ujjaioi. Io its vicinity there was a villago inhabited by dan cers. In that silingo thero lived a dancer named Bharat. His wifu had died, but he had a young con named Rohaha. Henco in order to kell look after hier ho soon married socond wife. But she did not treat Rohaba rcll. Rohaha, lokerer, brought her round by playing a trick with the help of his Autpattikt Buddhi. But thinking that, in order to tato revenge, she will Lill bim by poison etc., he al Tray's took his food in the compaay of his 16 Sırı Sırala kaha father, but never took it alone Now on s coitaja day, he went with his father to the city of Ujjain, and he saw that city of Ujjaini which was like the city of gods (to Indrapuri) With his heart struck with yondor, he obserped the whole of the city very well, and then, with his father ho went out of the city His father, saying that he had forgotten something in the rity, asked Robala to sit on the ban, of the river Sipra and went to the city agaia for bringing that thing Now, hore, Rohaks also according to his clever boy-like nature, drew die figure of the pole of the city on the sand of the bank of the river Supra Now, in the meanwhile, the hang of Ujjaini who was mounted on his borbe, and pho was moving quite alone, being on account of ope reason or the other, separated from 1118 company, tried to pass by that path When Rohaha gaw biom passing through tho (figuro of tho) city drawn by hin he asked the king Oh, king I do not go by this path The king ashod" Why?" Rohaha replied Do you pot 800 that this is tl o royal palace ?" The Ling, through curiosity, Enw the whole of the city drawn by bim (ie Rohnka) and ashod · Bor! gyor seo this city boforo I' Rohala tr did you Notes 17 roplod, "No, I bato come here from my villago only to-day" Then the king thought. "Oh, wondorful 13 tho talent of this boy Thon he asked Rohaha “ Boy I what is your namo, and what is your villago ?" Ho replied "My damo 13 Rohaha, and I live in the neighbouring city." By this tino these arrived Rohaka's father and both of them started for their villago Tho king also vont his own way and thought in bus mind "I havo got 499 ministers, but if however, may get a prime minister possessed of exceptional talent and intulligence, then my hangdom would go on quite lioppily, bocauso gonerally a ling possessod of the strength of baddhi' (10 talent), though wanting in other kinds of strength, 19 never defeated and conquers other bings as if in sport. Thinking thus, he after a for days called before him the leading men of the village, and apparentis ordered them tomahe a very tig stone' lying outside tl our village into a covoring (10 ceiling) fit for a royal 'mandap', fathoat lifting it from that place But by ordering them to do so ho really wantod to test the 'buddhr(the talent) of Rohala Then receiving this order from the king, all the people of the Tallage, thinking it mp3 sible to Muty out 2 18 Siri Supalakaha the order of the king and therefore with their minds greatly troubled, gathered together in an agsembly outside the village and began to asl ope another thus “ What should be done DOW? the king has given us a very bad order, and if the order of the bing wall not be carried out, great evil will come to us While they were thinking thus it became mid-day, and their anxiety increased more and more Nor Rohaka, as usual, did not take his meals without his ther and ho (se his fathor) had gone to the meeting of the villagers outade Thop Rohaka, being very much hungry, went to his father and began to cry and said "I am very hungry, therefore come home for moals" Bharata, 1 13 father, said Child' you are happy, you do not know any calamity of the village He asked “ Fathor what 18 it? Then Fharata oxplained to him the order of tho ling in full d-tails. Then by the power of his inanto talent Rolaha at onco thought out plan of accomplishio the work and said "Do not bo troublod Dig underneath the big stono in order to croato r' wandapa' fit for the Ling and placu pillars at proper places Then male the ralls and polish them." When he raid so, all the people of the village cried Notes 19 out "excellent !" and then all of them went to thoir houses for meals Hasing taken thoir mesls thoy came to the place where the stono was lying, and began to do their work. After a punbor of days they completed the whole 'mandopa', and that stone served the parposo of its ceiling Then the royal officers brought the intelligence to the king that the order of His Majesty ras carried out. The Liog asked "hos?" Then they revealed to the king the wholo manner in which the 'møndapa' tas created Then the king asked as to whose buddhi it was and they replied “This is the Autpattık. Buddhi of Robaka, the son of the dancer Bharat In this way the kig tested the 'buddhi of Rohaka twelve other times by giving similer riddle like orders as illustrated in the remaining 12 ilustrations given in the second verse, all of which Rohala solved easily by mesas of his innate 'buddhi' The king was, then, greatly pleased with his wonderfal Autpattıki Buddhi and appointed him his prime minister—thus placing him at the head of all his 199 ministers Here ends our illustration of the Autpattibi Buddhi (e) निमित्त (Sk. नैमित्तिक) or the Story of an Astrologer which illustrates the Vainayaka Buddbi - 20 Sırı Sıriyalakaha In a certain city there lived an inspired sage (or seor). He had two pupils who were studying under him 'the science of marks and omons (Falhas)' One, who was very obedient and modest towards the preceptor, always pondered over what the preceptor taught, and if there remained any doubts after pondering over, he went to the preceptor and solved them Thus always pondering over whatever he learnt, he became clover and intelligent The other pupil wrs devoid of all these virtues of modesty, pondering over, etc and hence he did not torn out to bo so Now, once, being asl ed by the preceptor both of them started for an sghbour ing village On the road they saw some big foot-prints and therefore, the pupil who had formed the habit of ponooring over (Vimrus' Jakarı) ashed the other who never pondered over (Avarussalarly thuy "Brother, whoso footprints are these !" Aunrus'yakati toplied what 19 to be asko i horo Theso aro the foot-priats of nn clephant " Then Vimrus'yakası sand "Do not speak like this thoso are the foot-prints of a slic-olephant, and she is blind by the left evo on hor 18 wountod a certain qucen - her Joosbanil 18 alive, and she 23 houty with child, nad about to give birth, and shio will deliter Notes 21 to-day or to-morrow, and & son will be born to her " Then, when he said so, Avim rus'yaları asked' How did you know this?" Vimrusyakāri replied: “Knowledge can be judged by Conviction, hence whilo going further it will be more cortain by conviction Thon they reach ed the village of their destination, and on the bank of a great lake outside that villago they saw the queen halted there They also 83 w that the she-elephant was blood by the left eye At this moment a certain maid-servant (of the queen) said to a cop-tier I congratulate you upon the hing's getting & son" Thereupon Virus'gakārı called the attention of Avimra s'yabari upon the words of the maid-servant, and the latter replied: "I am convicted of everything, your knowledge is quite right " Then they, having washed their hands and feet, sat under & fig-tree situated on the bank of that great lale in order to take rest, and were seen by an old woman who was carrying & pot full of water apon her head, and sbe examined then and thought " Verily, these appear to be learned persons Therefore, I shall ask them about back of my sou who has gone to & foreign country, She asked them the same, and while the coming 22 Sırı Sirialakıbā 6 she was doing so, the pot on her head fell down and was broken ato hundred pieces Then at once, Avimrus'yakarı spoke Your son has gone to destruction (1 e death ) like this your pot." Vymrus'yakari said: "No, no, brother 1 do not speak like this, her son bas already a me to her huuse", and he, then, said to the old woman “Oh you, good old lady ! go home and see the face of your son." Then, she, being spoken thus, sent towards her house as if become alive again, giving handreds of blessings to Vimras'yakārı, and there sho found that her son had come home. There she was bosed down to by her son, and she also gave him ber blessings and told him about the incident of the astrologer (Vimpus'yakari. Then with tho permission of her sbo gavo a psic of clothes and a number of rupees to Vimrus'yakan as & present And Arimrus'gabări greatly dejected at beart thought in his mind thus: “Verils, I am not well taught by the preceptor, otherwiso how 18 it that I cannot hao this if ho doos it?" Then baving performed the Norh of the preceptor, both of them caune toforo the preceptor Thoro Viarras'sahati at the sory sight of tho preceptor bent down luis head, foldod his boods, and fell at the lett HOD, Notes 23 taught an of the preceptor with great respect, and with his eyes full of the toors of joy But Avim rus'yakarı stood thoro es motionless as a moun tain without oven slightly bending down his body, inhaling smoke, and emitting out the fire of nalice Then the preceptor asked him " How is it that you do not fall at my feet?" He replied “He, who is well-taught, will fall at your feet, not l' The preceptor said " How do you say that you are not well- Then he revealed to him the wholo account Then the preceptor asked Vitrus'ya. karı "Boy' tell me how did you know this 8" Then he said * At your advice I began to ponder over thus that these foot-priats aro well-known as those of an elephant, but when I reflected over it further, whether they wore of an elephant or of a sbo-elephant and geeing their corporoal size I decided that they were of & sho-elephant Again I found that the sheelephant had completely cut down a bovor of Vallı-creepers which forms her substinence on her right side, but not on the left Hepee I decided that she was blind by the left eye, Again I reflected that a person possessed of such a retinue, and mounted upon an elephant, cannot be other than a royal person and that 24 Siri Sirivālakabā person had, I found, slighted the elephant at a certain place in order to calm doira hor bodily pain, and judging from the size of her body I decided that she has & queen, and see. ing some small bits of the shirt of a red garment eotsagled in a tree I decided that her husband iras alive. Finding that she had got up after supporting herself on her hand on the ground, I decided that she was heavy with child and judging the unbearable freuing and placing on ground her right leg I decided that she was about to deliver Now as regards the question of the old woman my reflection as thus:-"Just as her pot merged into the dost from shich it was born, in the same way the son also will meet his mother who gave him birth". Then after this the preceptor looked at Vicarus'yahari rith d-light and praised him, and to Avimrus'ya karı he replied: " It is your fault, that you do not ponder over, and not mine We (preceptors) aro simply to explain to you the meaning of the s'astra' (or scriptures ), but it ie for you to pondor ofer. Thus this has the Vainasiki Buddlu of Vimros'agakäri. (3) हेरणिय (Sk, हरण्यक) or the Illustra tion of a gold and silper merchant which illastrates the Karmaji Boddhi.

If a has got constant practice of doing a thing and if he does that thing in an excellent manner, there is no won dor' Then that thief, hearing these words, burnt with rage Then he (1, e the thief) inquired of somebody who that farmer was, and having known him, he went to his (1 e the farmer s) field on a certain day, with a dagger drawn in bis hand, and standing before him he said "I sball kill you to-day” He asked " The thief replied * Because the other day you man Why ? » 26 Siri Siriyalakaba did not praise tay hole" The farmer said: " It was true because he, who has got practice of doing a thing always becomes a master of that thing There I, myself, am an example If you ask me, I will make these beans in my hand fall on the ground with their faces down wards, or if you like with their faces upwards o sidewards Then the thref being more struck with wonder said Mahe all of them fall on the ground with their faces downwards The farmer, thereupon, spread a piece of cloth on the ground and made them all fall on at with their faces downwards The thief was greatly struck with wonder and he again and again praised tbo cleverdoss of the farmer and sand "If the beans had bot føllen on the ground with their faces downwards, I would have certainly killed you' Here, in this story, the 'buddhi' of the thief and the farmer as the Karmaja Buddhi (4) (SL) or the Story of Abhagskumara bimself who is here said to be possessed of all the four buddhie (Before actually giving this story song explanation is here required to be made Each of the 21 llustratiops of the Parınınki Baddlı, is simply alladed to, by the commentator Malayagını, in bis commentary Notes 27 not & merely in one or two lines, the details being aot given because, as he says, all those stories are very very long and would cover separate big volumes Accordingly, this story of Abhaya e Abhayakumara ) 15 also given there in full details, but is simply alluded to in about line and a half But it is given in full details in Abhayakumara Charitra in poetry by Updhyya Shree Chandratılaka which 18 translated into Gujarati 10 three volumes by Motichand Oghavi Shah, and published by Bhaichanda Naginbhai Zavert for Sheth Nagıobhai Manchhoobhãı Jain Sahitya Fund Surat The detailed story of Abhayakumara given below, which illutrates the last 10 the Parinamısı Buddhi, 18 taken and summarised from the 8th 'sarga' of the second volume of this translation ) Abhayakumāra was, as 18 mentioned in our text also, the son of the well-known Jaing bing Shrenika, who ruled in the city of Rajagriba in the country of Malaya Io that same country there was a city named Ujjain, where ruled the mighty king Chandapradyota Once he thought of conqueria, Raagriha King Shreaika, getting news about this, became much puzzled, because he tbought that Chandrapra 28 Sırı Sırıyalalaba dyota, with his large army, will certainly conquer him, and hence he asked his talented son Abhay akamāra what to do Heashed his father not to worry about that,and he (10 Abhayakumara ) Ashed his men to put upder the ground over which tho enemy would lodge, j&rs full of gold coins Now in a short timo, Chandrapradyota, with 8 large army and many feudatory chiefs, invaded Rajagribs and besieged it. Getting news about this Abhayahumar3 sent a letter to Chandrapradyota in which he proto " You are the husband of queen Sʻsvārani, ny mother's sister You will, therefore, carefully consider the few liges that I write you My father has won over his side all your feudatory chiefs by giving them jars fall of gold coins, and they themselves, therefore, will hand you over to my father, with your hands and legs tied up If you do not believe in me, dig and scrutinize tbe places where they have lodged, and you will know the truth" Having read this letter, Chandrapradyota dug the ground under the camp of one focdatory kings, and found those jars full of gold COIDB, and thinking that his life was in dapger he ran away with his arcy from that place, sad to of his Notes 29 tberefore bis feudatory bings also did the sale When they reached Ujjaini the latter asked tho former the reason of his running away and ho explained to them the same They told tho king that it was false, and thus Chandrapradyota became aware of the trick of Abhayakucara, and in order to take revenge, he took a vow to get him (ie Abhayakumars) brought to Ujjini with big bands and legs bound In order to carry out this purpose, ho engaged a harlot who asked the king to procure for her two young girls possessed of equal beauty This was done, and thon the harlot, with the two girls, went to some Jaina puns, and all the three, jo & short time became great Shrayılasof course not at heart but only After learning all the daties etc of Shravikas they started for Rajagriha Having reached it, t; ey Visited all the Jains temples there, and then at last they wert to & temple barit by kaag Shreniks himself There they worshipped the Jiua in an excellent manner with great pomp At that time Abhayakumara, also, came there to worship the Lord Jina and seeing the har Jot and the two girls extolling the Lord Jina with as great & devotiob and attention as those of an ascelic, be got much delighted and thought in Dame 30 Sin Sirivalakaha that if he would go in they will be interrupted ja their worship, and therefore he remained out side After a time they got up carefully to avoid any kind of 'hinga' Then Abhayakumara weat in sud with the devotion of a co-religia Dist he folded his hands to them and asked them wo they were The barlot, pretending to be & great shtarıba told that she ras tuo widow of a rich Shravaha of the city of Aviati, and that the two girls with her were also the widows of her son who was also dead, and added that all this was the working of their eril harmay, and also told that all of them were to take Diksha (101tiation) in a few days, and that they had for the pro ent started on their pil grimage journo58 10 parious pilgrim-places such as S'atrunjaya, Sametas'ıkham etc Abhayakumans, A great Shravaba as he wae, was greatls delt ghtod to hear this, and losited them to tbe royal hou«o for ontortainment In return after some days, the harlot infited Abhayakumarn to her todporary residenco 10 Rajagrila for the In order to please his religious sigter, Abharahumara acceptel the invitation and sent to hor place He was given av excell nt din but in drink to nas given Chandrabisa' hich orier soino time throt him into 84mo ner, nino Noles doop slumber.

however, he did noteat them and brought them to
Ujjaidi and told Chandrapradyota how he had
pot eaten them on account of ill-omens on the road,
and come bomo hungry The kiog told the same
thing to Abhayakumara and asked him to 61
plain to him the bidden meaning of this.
Abhayakumara smelt the pot of the sweet-balls
and told that some such thing had been mixed
with them that a drashtıyısa' serpent has
been born in it Had Lohajangha opened it, he
would have met with death Then the serpent
was taken out of the pot and thrown into a
jungle Chandrapradyota was groatly pleased
with this talent of Abhayakumara and
promised him one boon which the former
reserved for a proper occasion
Similarly Abhuyakumara sas promised a
second boon on the occasion of his checking the
elephant Talagiri who had create 1 a great
excitement and uproario Ujjaint and whou no
body could control
He was also given a third and a fourth
boon ip zetorn of bis pacifying a great fire
and a great divine wrath (Upadrava)
Nor Abhay kumara thought the proper
occasion of askig all the four boods and
Notes 33 said: "Give me these four boons. (1) I should be seated on the elephant Nalagiri,(2) S'ivādevi should make me sit in her lap, (3) you should be the keeper of the elephant and ( 4 ) with all this I shall enter the pile made ap of the wood of Agnibhira chariot, Hearing this Chandrapradyota became as cold as ice and told Abbayakumāra with folded hands that he was unable to give these boons, and further told him that he was, thurofore, released and he could go. Then Abhayakumāra took a vow before him (i... Chandrapradyota ) that as he had brought him there bound by practising a religious deceit, he (i.e. Abhayakamāra) would take him (1.e. Chandrapradyota ) bound a mad mau from Ujjaini at mid-day, in the presence of all the people of his city; and then he returned to Rājagriba and appeased king Shrenika and all who were miserable on account of his separation. Now Abhayakumāra employed to beautiful barlots for entrapping Chandrapradyota, and he took the dress of a merchant and changed his voice by some magical charm. Then they (i, e. Abhayakumara and ihe two harlots) went to Ujjaini and hired a big building and stayed 3 as that of there Once Chandrapradyota happened to ape these two beautiful harlots and fell in love with them, and was smitten with great pange of love After great entreaty and requests through his mazd-servant, the barlots agreed that the bing should come to their place after seven days at a particular time when their brother Toold be absent, because he did not allow them to leave their place Io the meanwhile, Abhayakumara found out a man beving the same shape Chandrapradyots, called him by the name * Pradyota', and made him known in the city as his mad brother, and he told all the people that he was much worried about his brother and he did not know there to take him and what medicine to give him etc and sometimes he used to place him on a cot and tie him tightly and take bin on the royal road publicly, ereb though he gave lood cries, and that man also, as taught by Abhayalamara, used to cry out Oh people I please li tea to my ope sentence, I am bing Pradcota, bo is carrying me awafi get me released from him etc » the people ased to come to him, but recogni ing him not to be Chandrapradyota they used to laugh Adlong themselve Abhayakumara Hearing this dii

Sts. 16 to 34, contain the preaching of the sage Guutama and they are somewhat difficult but very important stanzas, as they discuss the topio upon which the whole story of king Shripāla is based, and they are put in the mouth of the great sage Gautama in order to emphasize the greatness of the Nayapada or the Nine Dignities, (already explained before). They are an outcome of the feelings of the poet's own beart, and hence they are very beautiful stanzas rich in lânguago, diction, thought and exposition of feelings. They are briefly summarized below, First of all, the sage Gautáma says that giving up 'pramäda' (i. e. carelessntgs and negligence), one should practise the true religion "खग्गं, छत्तं, उप्फेस, वाहणाओं य वालवीयणं" (i.c.. strord, an umbrella, & crown, shoes or sandals, and a fan ), 40 Sin Siriyalakaha as the sage further says which consists of Charity, Character, Penance, and Pure Mental Condition, the last being the most important, the other three depend upon it The puro mental condition, however, says the sage, depends upon the mind which can be best disciplined and restrained only with the help of pure meditation, and the most important of all the meditatiops is the meditation upon the Nayapada, also called fagmi (or the Circle of the Sacred ones) Then that this Navapada constitutes the very essence of the Jaina Relr gion, and then he describes the true nature of ench of these Nine Dignities in appealing words, and advises us to cultivate in our hearts & foeling of adoration for this Navapada which gives us real happinoss(vrz.

In order to thoroughly understand this Verse, the study of the Karmagranthas iz in- 72 Slui Sirivālskabā dispensable. We shall, however, try to explain them below. कम्माणं मूलुत्तरपयडीओ (Sk. कर्मणां मूलोत्तरमginta: ) The ( 8 ) primary and ( 158 ) substdiary divisions of Karma, There are fodr ways in which Karma binds the soul and this is known as the (fourfold ) Fat which is thus defined “पयइटिइरसपएसा तं चहा मोअगस्स दिळंता । मूलपगइठ्ठ उत्तरपगइ अडवनसयमेयं ॥" ( Karmagrantha I yerse. 2.) Thus far is one of the four main divisions of the पन्धतत्त्व and it ( 1. 8. प्रकृति) is thus defined 99 Het get" i, e, Prakriti means natural character or potency.' As soon as 8 soul accumulates Karma, the nature or potency of that Karma is also decided and this is Prakriti, la order to understand this natore or Prabriti, the illustration of a sweet-ball is very useful. Just us & sweet-ball made up of dried-ginger ( '#') removes alty of Find, that made up of Jorn' (tt) removes humor (for) and that made up of coagh-removing ingredients removes cough, in the same way some karma removes i. e. obstructs knowledge, -
Notes

some obstructs Dars'ana or True Faith, some
obstracts Charactor and so on. Thus at the
time of the binding of the karmas rith the
soul, their different natures or potencies are
decided and this is known as 'Prakriti.' Thos
here Prakriti means . natural character or
potency.'. Prakriti also means mor division'.
In कम्माणं मूलपपडीमो it has got this latter
meaning, and hence this phrase means the
Principal Divisions of Kerms which_ara & in
number (E. Eg ) viz. (1) carcity (2)
दर्शनावरणीय (3) मोहनीय (4) अंतराय (5) वेदनीय (6)
y (7) 77 and (8) 17%. Out of these 8 mein
divisions of Karma, the first four are often
called saif Karmas, because they destroy the
spiritual welfare of the sopl and the last four
are called una as they do not do so. The
formor four are sometimes also called farfar
or thoge which we are bound to experience, and
the latter four मनिकाचित or शिथिल Karmas ie.
those schick e mby, by extraordinary exertions,
Orade. ( The Farafats are also again divided
icto two subdivisions viz. (1) Tenia and
42) मुनिकाचित out of which the अल्पनिकाचितकर्म
can be destroyed up to & certain limit, by
practising hard and extremely pare inward
penance after which they must be esperienced.
74 Siri Sirivālaksha Contrary is the case in gara. They must first be experienced up to a certain limit and then they can be destroyed by hard and estremely pure inward pênance ]. The nature] character ( FR ) of these 8 main divisions of Karms can be understood by 8 illastrations givien in verse 38 of the Ta Huras follows: 'पडपडिहारऽसिमज्ज-हडचित्तकुलालभंडगारीण। जह एपसिं भावा, कम्माणऽवि जाण तह भावा ।" We shall discuss the same briefly below :- (I) The Nature of staircareant. It is just like a bandage ( 12 )' to our eyes of. 950 arger & ARTİ'). Just as not see anything if our eyes are bandaged, in the same way or account of the bandage of the शानावरणीयकर्म we cannot Бөe anything by the eye of our knowledge. Thus, in short, 11719- zou becomes a hindrance to a bad id acquiring koowledge (2) The Nature of laterceffunt Just as a king cannot gee & Dan stopped the door-keeper (प्रतिहार or वेत्रिन Pk. विति), in the same way the soul cannot see the things and objects of this world in their real nature, being stopped by the covering of दर्शनावरणीयकर्म (3) The Nature of He. This is the most power ful of all Karmas, and it becomes & we садgreat hin- Notes 75 dronce in oar getting fra and pure character as well as asceticism. Its effect is just like that of vine ( 75 ). Just as a map, who is drunk, becomes intoxicated and is unable to know whether he does a good thing or bad, in the same way s man under the influence of Hari- ThH is unable to discriminate between Dharma and Adharma (religion and irreligion). (4) The Nature of art. It is just like a treasorer (ANSMA ). Just as a great donor, such as B. king etc. cannot give charity lavishly if his treasurer is a misor (because the latter often dissuades him from doing so by telling him that the kingdom is suffering from this loss and that etc.), in the same way, the soul, which is also of a charitable nature and which is posseosed of Virya etc. cannot use them properly, so long as it is under the infuence of TRE- कर्म. (5) The Nature of वेदनीयकर्म. This Karma creates happiness or misery to the soul. Just as a sword (aff:) bosmoared with honey, when licked by a persou gives him taste at first but gives him pain afterwards on account of his tongue being cat or injured by the sword, in the same way under the influence of वेदनीयकर्म, . experiences momentary happiness, but saffers bitter pain afterwards (cf, the wellman 76 Siri Sirivälakahā Agfargeria in Jainism.) (6) The Nature of STT FÅ. It is compared to a fetter or & shackle (es). Just as & man, who is fettered, cannot be set free until the king orders, in the same way, under the infuence of the soul cannot be free from existence (fa) until the period upto which it is to stay there is completed. This Karma creates transmigration of the soul. (7) The Nature of $. It is compared to a painter (fazratt). Just as a painter paints various designs and various kinds of persons, in the same way, through transmigration, the jiva' gets various names and existences. ( 8 ) The Nature of 1879. It is compared to a potter (zita). Just as a potter makes good as well as bad pots, in the same way this 11778 puts a man in a noble or a low family. These the 8 main divisions in which Karma is divided, and they themselves are further divided into yarious sub-divisions which ve need not note here. This much for कम्माणं मूलपयडोओ. Now remain कम्माणं उत्तरपयडीओ (Sk, in para: ). Here Taifa has got the first meaning of patural character or potency.' Hence this phrase means the secondary potencies of action, which #re 158 in number (“ITUTE THE "), are Notes 77 :- and which are briefly enumerated in the following verse which occurs verbatim both in the नवतत्त्वप्रकरण (verse. 38), and in Derendrasiri's कर्मग्रन्थ I. (verse 3.) इह नाणदसणावरणवेअमोहाउनामगोयाणि । विग्यं च पणनवदुअवीसवउतिसयदुपणविहं। Thus मानावरणीयकर्म has got 5 Prakritis riz. (I) मतिमानावरणीय, (२) श्रुतक्षानावरणीय (3) अवविधानावर- णीय (4) मनःपर्यवज्ञानावरणीय and (5) केवलमानावरणीय. The दर्शनायरणोयकर्म has got 9 Prakritis (cf. कर्मग्रन्थ I. verse 9, line 2. which taye" देसण वड पण निदा, वित्तिसमं दसणावर * Thus they are (I) चसुदर्शनावरणीय, (2) अव दर्शनावरणीय, (3) अवधिदर्श- नावरणीय, (4)केरलदर्शनावरणीय, (5) निद्रा, (6) निद्रानिद्रा, (7) प्रचला, (8) प्रचलामचला, (9) योगदि (k.स्यानगृद्धि i. e.

(For detailed explamation on all these al fiatas, Art I. sbould be referred to). The गोत्रकर्म, like वेदनीय, has got tro प्रकृति Notes 83 " viz. (1) उच्चगोत्र (1) नीचगोत्र. ef. कर्मग्रन्य L verse 52, line 1. which says: " गोयं दुदुच्चनीय, कुलाल इव सुघड मलाईभं ।" The अंतरायकर्म has got 5 प्रकृतिs viz (1) दानांव- राय, (2) लामांतराय, (3) भोगांतराय, (३) उपमोगांतराय, (5) वीयातराय. They are thus explained in कर्मनन्य T. Herse 52. line 2.

Like प्रकृति, स्थिति is also one of the four main divisions of पन्धतल and it is thus deined: "ठिई कालानहारणं". Hence Feufa means s certain fixed time'. As soon 19 a karms is accumulated by the soal, the time, for which it will biad the woul, al-o decided and this is hoown as fears. In order to understand this term also, we have, of çoars", to take the same illusiration of a siveet -ball sbieh Te took in onderstanding Prakri i (and later in understanding यगुमाग 16.रम and प्रदेश also, we shall take the same illustration) Just as some street-uall remains fit for eating for s month, some for 15 days and so on, and then it becomes useless, in the same way, One 84 Siri Sirivālskabā karma remains with the soul for 70 Kodakodisāgaropama' (this number is so great that it cannot be counted by an ordinary man) years, this being the maximum time, some for 40 and 80 on, and then it is destroyed and this is known as feftant. The maximum and the minimum time for which each of the 8 main divisions of Karma binds the soul 18 thus given in the Taattu, Verses 40 to 42 " नाणे अदसणापरणे, वेयणिए चेव अंतराए । तीसं कोडाकोडी, अयराणं ठिठ अ उक्कोसा ॥ सित्तरि कोडाकोडी, मोहणिए वीस नाम गोपसु । सित्तीर्स अयराइ, आउद्विइबंध उकोसा ।। वारस मुहुत्त जहन्ना, वेयणिए अनाम गोपसु । सेसागंतमुहुत्तं, पयं बंधढिईमरणं । (for further detailed explanation refer to HTTU Mehesānā Edition and Karmagrantha I ) कम्मविवाग (SE कर्मविपाक) The good. as well as bad effects of Karma which make us happy or miserable respectively. There are four principal inward which briog Karma to the soul viz.

And this bringing of happiness or misery to our soul by the rarious causes of karma is known Is कर्मविपाक, on which the whole of the Karmagrantha I. is based and it is itself called कर्मविपाक. The various outward canges of the coming of शुभ or अशुभकर्मs to the soul given at the end of the Karmagrantha I. are very useful for fally understanding the term 'कर्मविपाक' as well as for the spiritual welfare of the soul, Hence they are quoted verbatim below:- पडिणीपत्तणनिन्हय-उवधायपयोस अतरायण । अच्चासायणयाए, आवरणदुग जियो जयह ॥ गुरुभत्तितिकरुणा - वयजोगासायविजयदाणजुओ। दृढधम्माई अम्जा, सायमसाय विवज्जयो । उमग्गदेसणामग्ग - नामणादेवदनहरणेहिं । दसणमोह जिणमुणि-घेइनसघाइ पडिणीयो । दुविहंपि चरणमोह, कमायदासाइक्सियविवसमणो। घंघ निरयाउ महा-भपरिगहरयो रहो ॥ तिरिाउ गृहहिमओ, सदो ससल्लो वहा मणुस्साउ । पयइइ तणुकसायो, दाणहह मन्झिमगुणो य॥ मयिरपमाइ मुराउं, यालतवोकामनिम्जरो जया । सरलो अगारविल्लो, सुहनाम अन्नदा अमुई । " 86 Siri Siriyalakahā गुणपही मयरहियो, अज्झयणज्झावणारुई निच्च । पकुणा जिणाइभत्तो, उच्च नीअ इअरहा । जिणपूआविग्मकरो, हिंसाइपरायणो जया विग्छ । इस फम्मविवागोय, लिहिओ देविंदसूरीहिं॥" As for those desirous of knowing further details on the four principal inward causes, they should study Karmagrantha IV. called पडशीति Mehesana Edition verses 51 to 58. बंध (Sk.) This is one of the nine most important Tattvas. or categories of fundamental truth in Jainism, it buing the eighth in chronological Ordor. Soul with Karma is like gold found in earth with clay and other impurities clinging to it. Or, as heat unites with iron and water with milk, so Karma unites with soul. This uniting of the Karma with the soul, due to the causes already discussed above, is known 88 वधतत्त्व or वध and by बधकर्म is meant the karmas which we are at present accumulating- As we have already said before the घधतत्व in divided into 4 parts; see नवतत्त्वप्रकरण verse. - 34 ............यधो चउन्विगप्पो अ । पया हि अणुभाग- प्पएसमेएहिं नायव्यो॥" Thus they are (1) प्रकृति (2) स्थिति (3) अणुभाग 1. 8. रस and (4) प्रदेश.

The only thing that he wants to omphasize is that irhatever system of marr riuge might be, the happiness or otherwise of it does not depend upon any such system, but it depends upon a person's actions of former birth This is the view of the author, a Jaina Achá. rya, and hence it is the viery of Jainisin as well, and any believer in the theory of Karma (19 propoundod in the 6 Karmagranthas ) will certainly adopt this view, St. 92.

The commentator expl. ains: "साधुर्महासतीयमिति वाक्यं प्रादुरभूदित्यर्थः" Here the two-sided unthoughtful nature of the world is worth noting. As it is said in a Goj. idiom, 'the world is two-coloured (altall ful).' It is such that it Hatters the pro-perous though going wrong, and kicks the quiserable though going right. We have seen in the beginning of our text that the people of Ujjaini flattered Surasundari and praised the S'aiva Religion because at that time the stars were in her favour; and they scandalized and censured Madanasundari oven thoagh she took the side of Truth, and a blame was put upon the Jaina Religion which she patronized. Now here the same people praise her and the Jains Religion, because now the stars are in ber favour, Hence it is said, 'everybody will make friends with you in prosperity, but none will come to you in adversity'-soch is alivuya the nature of the world, 150 Siri Sirivālakaha which speaks one thing to-day and quite different thing the very next day. Hence persons caring for Truth and Justice should not be guided by the opinion of the world which is always fickle, and thus swerve from the true path that they have taken; but with courge and strength of the soul, they should go on traversing their puth of Truth and Justice without caring either for fame or censure, and they will find in the end that the victory will be theirs as was, as wo bave soon, in the case of Madanasundari, who though slighted off in the beginning by her father and the people of Ujjaini was honoured by them in the ond, and the people called her a great satee, thus her victory being complete. Itshould be noted, however, that it is not the praiso or censure that counts and makes a man greut, but the courage and soul-power that he showa.
