·* INTRODUCTION I. HOW I CAME TO EDIT THE WORK. It was in the beginning of 1930 that I, for the first time, examined in detail a MS. ( hereafter called B1) of the Upanidāna-sūtra in the Government Sanskrit Library, Benares. The examination revealed that it contained a work which was of considerable importance for the Vedic metre in general and especially for the metres of the Sāma-veda. I at once made up my mind to bring out a critical edition of the work. But the paucity of the manuscript material seemed to offer a great difficulty. Up to that time there was no indication that there was any other MS. of the same work in our Library. None of our Manuscript Catalogues mentioned any other MS. of this name. A reference to the catalogues of other manuscript libraries proved equally discouraging, as I did not come across this name anywhere in those catalogues. Under these circumstances I most reluctantly gave up the idea of its edition for the time being. Only one MS. did not appear to be enough for the purpose of its critical edition, Fortunately only a few days after, I happened to read through the Yajuḥ-sarvānukramaņī with the commentary of Deva Yājñika. In this commentary I noticed a great many Sūtras on metre quoted from a work called Chandogaparišişța. On examination, to my great but at the same time pleasant surprise, I found that the Sūtras were quotations from our Upanidānasūtra which was called here Chandogapari işta. It led me to re-examine the alove-mentioned sources with a ·[ 2 more view to find out whether they referred to any MS. of the work by the name Chandogapari işta or by any other name which had any connection with it through sense or sound. The result of this re-examination was very encouraging. I found the work mentioned in several manuscript catalogues under different names such as छन्दः, सामगानां छन्दः, छन्दःपरिशिष्ट. The details in this respect will be found below. The fact that this work is, a few times, mentioned in the "Annual Catalogues of Sanskrit MSS. Existing in Oudh” ( see III. 6 and XIII, 28 ) led me to guess that there might be at least least one MS, of the work in our Library also. I began to examine our catalogues, along with the bundles of MSS., most patiently. After a most careful search, of bundles after bundles, lasting for many days, one fine morning, to my great pleasure, I came across one MS. (called bereafter B2 ) of a work called Chandaḥ which on examination turned out to be identical with the Upanidāna-sūtra. Having thus secured two MSS. of the work I at once set myself to the preparation of its critical edition. II. THE MS. MATERIAL. This edition is based on the above-mentioned two manuscripts ( B1 and B2 ) belonging to the Government Sanskrit Library, Benares. It is worth while to describe them here in detail. Bl:--The first MS., called Bi by myself, begins on folio l' and ends on fol. 8. There are on an average 10 lines in a page and 21 letters in a line. The size of the fols, is 7.711x4. 1" inches. It begins thus:--( sic ) FH aina 4A: 1 1a- ·[3] श्छंदसा विचयं व्याख्यास्यामो । गायत्र्युष्णिगनुष्टुब् बृहती पंक्तिस्त्रि- ष्टुब्जगतीति सप्तार्षारयेकाक्षरपदादीनि चतुरक्षराधिकानि प्रतिछंदसं गायच्यादीनाम्..... It ends thus :-(sic) यथा छंदोभिराछंना देवान्मत्स्यानिवो. दके नापश्यत्पुरा मृत्युरमृतत्वं गतो गताः। छंदोविदेव विस्तु धर्म- तस्तद्गुणाश्रितः । छंद । सामेति सालोक्यममृतत्वं च गछतीत्याह गाग्र्यो गार्ग्यः ॥ ८॥ इति उपनिदानं समाप्तं ॥ श्री संवत २६७५ वर्षे आश्वनबुदे २ गुरे त्र० शीवदाससुत त्र० मांझा (? or डां) णल्यखित यदि शुद्धं शु. On the title-page is written probably by a later hand: ( sic) उपनिदान ८ पत्राणि ८ तत्र० केशवजीसूत् रतनजीनी पोथी सही ॥ गीरधरजी प्रभुजी पाउनाथ ॥ त्रा० ( name illegible ) ने भाग आवा Another hand, probably of our own Library, has written on the same page : ७० उपनिदानसूत्रम् After the colophon, given above, a later hand has written one Jine which is not quite distinct. It mentions त्रिपाठि केशव and संवत् १६९३ (?). The whole work is divided into eight sections or chapters. The ending of the chapters is indicated only by the number, in figure, of the particular chapter; for example, the end of the first chapter is shown only by the number il pl painted red. The end of chapter VIII is indicated similarly by lllcll after STEIE Trouf etisi: (see the ending of the MS. given above ). The text of the Sūtras, as is evident from a few lines of the beginning given above, is given continuously with sandhi and without any break. Nor are they numbered in any way. Even the four ·[4] stanzas at the end are not numbered, though every half-stanza is followed either by one or two strokes like | Or ||. पृष्ठमात्रा is often used in the MS. B.-The second MS., colled B by myself, begins on fol. 1° and ends on fol.7%. There are on an average 10 lines in a page and 25 letters in a line. The size of the fols, is 8.4" X 4' 2" inches, It begins thus:--(sic ) श्रोन्नमः सामवेदाय नमः ॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥ोम्॥ अथातश्छंदसा विचयं व्याख्यास्यामो' गायत्र्यु- ठिणगनुष्टुब वृहती पङ्किस्त्रिष्टुब्जगतीति सप्ता$ण्ये'काक्षरपदादीनि चतुरक्षराधिकानि प्रतिछंदसं' गायत्र्यादीनामुस्कृतिरवसानं' छंदसा. मार्ष। लौकिक' च'...... It ends thus:-(sic) यथा छंदोभिराछंना देवान्मत्स्या- निवोदके ॥ नाऽपश्यत्पुरा मृत्पु'रमृतत्वं' ततो गताः ॥ ३ ॥ छंदो- विदेव विप्रस्तु' धर्मतस्तद्गुणाऽश्रितः ॥ छंदसामेति सालोक्य'ममृ- तत्वं च गछतीस्याह भगवान् गाग्र्यो गााः ॥ १० ॥ ४ ॥ इति छंदः समाप्तः ॥ संवत् १७१४ वर्षे भ्राद्रवदि १० लिखितं व्या० जनासुतन्या० खोखलासुत व्या० गोकलसुत व्या० गदाधरेण लिखितं ॥ श्रीरस्तु ॥ कल्याणमस्तु ॥परोपकारार्थ च ॥ श्री ॥ This MS, wholly agrees with B1 in its division of the chapters and in the manner of indicating their ending, with the only exception that the ending of chapter VIII is shown here by 11 ll just before, and not after, the last four stanzas. The significance of il go 11 after fizif atira:, as shown above, is not quite clear. Like B1 it also gives the text of the Sūtras continuously and does not number them. But the MS, differs from B1 in this respect that the scribe, or more likely a later reader, of the MS. made an attempt to divide the text of the Sūtras by strokes like I written ·above the lines, as will be evident from the beginning and ending given already. The division of the text of the Sūtras shown by such' strokes in the MS. does not always coincide with that adopted by myself in the printed text, and to my mind is, in many cases, quite arbitrary. A few examples will make this clear; e. g., the Sūtras 4 and 5 given on page 1 of the printed text are shown as only one Sūtra in this MS: So is the case with Sūtras 7 and 8 (page 1) of the printed text. The first two Sūtras given on page 2 of my text are similarly shown as forming only one Sūtra in the MS. This is enough to show the arbitrary nature of this division of BP. Both B1 and Bº write the real anusvára ( as in Brzife ) as 7 and 6 respectivly, after the preceding syllable. L-LAHORE MS. Through the courtesy of my friend Prof. Kailash Nath Bhatnagar, of the Sanatana Dharma College, Lahore, I had the advantage of collating a few folios (i. e., fols. 1, 3, 5) of a photo-copy, in his possession, of a third MS, also, which is referred to in the footnotes by L. He happened to visit Benares in July 1930 and brought these 3 folios with himself in order to show them to me, for which I am grateful to him, I regret I do not remember any details regarding the original MS. of the photo-copy. But it would appear from the foot-notes that the MS. generally agrees with our own MSS. III. METHOD FOLLOWED IN THE PRESENT EDITION. As already hinted, the division of the Sūtras, as ·] given in this edition is not based on any traditional evidence. Though I have derived some help ! by way of hints ) in this respect from B2, I hare really depended in this respect on my own judgement. In arriving at my conclusions, of course, I took some help from a comparative study of such works as the Rgveda-prātiśākhya, Pingala-sūtra and the Yajuh. sarvānukramaņi. Under these circumstances, there is some likelihood of my division of the Sūtras being incorrect in some cases. It is mainly owing to this likelihood that I have refrained from numbering the Sūtras. As pointed out above, the MSS. show the ending of the chapters only by means of their numbers. Here also I have departed from the traditional evidence in so far that, instead of the mere numbers, I have added colophons, e. g. sfa qUAISETIT:, at the end of each chapter. The word Adhyāya, assigned to these chapters, is also mine and has no traditional basis, as far as my information goes. The stanza ब्राह्मणात्ताण्डिनश्चैव पिङ्गलाच्च महात्मनः । निदानादुक्थशास्त्राच्च छन्दसां शानमुद्धृतम् ॥ on page 23 as well as the fact that the work is divided into eight chapters led me to use the word Adhyāya for them on the analogy of the Pingalasūtra, which also consists of eight Adhyāyas. As regards the last four stanzas, I have excluded them, on the evidence of B², from chapter VIII. They are clearly of a sort of an appendix. References for the Vedic quotations given in the work have been shown in the foot-notes. Besides, ·[ Ý ! I have also given references to some parallel passages in other works on metre. IV. NAME AND NATURE OF THE WORK, As already indicated, the work is named differently in different Manuscript Catalogues. For example, in the "Second Report of Operations in Search of Sanskrit MSS. in the Bombay Circle” by P. Peterson the same work ( called Upanidānam in the colophon ) is described on p. 113 (see also p. 185 ), under the nanme छन्दोविचय; and on p. 180 it is called सामगानां छन्दः, cf. also p. 383 of Aufrecht's Catalogue of the Oxford MSS., 1864. On p, 28 of the "Catalogue of Sanskrit MSS. Existing in Madh”, XIII, it is simply called 3. On pages 38 and 257 of Stein's Catalogue of Jammu MSS, the work is called griTife. For other references and details in this respect Catalogus Catalogorum, Parts I and II. Besides, it has already been pointed out that the commentary of Deva Yājñika on the Yajuḥ-sarvānukramaņi refers to the same work by the name reloroftrare several times, see pp. 7, 327. Even our MSS. name it differently. It being so, it was a question as to which name should be given to the work in this edition. Any of the abovementioned names apparently would have done equally. But I prefer to adopt the present name, firstly, because it is more significant than the others inasmuch it readily signifies the nature of the work that it is, like the Nidāna-sútra, connected with the Sāpaveda, It also shows the dependence of this work on the Nidāna--sūtra, which is clearly stated in the stanza : lauatfignata etc. quoted above. Moreover, the see ·[ 8 ] .- - MS, B1 which calls it Upanidāna is the oldest, as far as I know, of all the dated MSS, of the work. Though B1 calls it merely Upanidāna, I have named it Upanidāna-sūtra because it is really in the Sūtra style. As regards the nature of the work, it is obviously of the same type as the Anukramaņi literature of the other Vedas, Like the Kgvedic Chandonukramaņi of Saunaka, it also aims at giving an Anukramaņi of the metres of the Sāmaveda-samhitā, with the only difference that like the Sarvānukramaſis of Kātyāyana it also gives, in the first three chapters, a general outline of the Vedic metres and that chapter VIII is also of a general character, V. CONTENTS AND SCOPE OF THE WORK, As already stated, the first three chapters of the Upanidāna- sūtra are of a general character. The first chapter gives the names of the seven Ārşa metres, describes their nature and details their varieties. The second chapter deals with the defective and Aticchandas metres, and describes the method of determining the real nature of doubtful metres aud other allied matter.. The third chapter deals with the Daiva, Āsura and Prăjāpatya metres on the one hand, and those of Yajuh, Sāman and æg on the other. Chapters IV to VII form the nucleus of the book and deal with the metreşof tho Sâmavedla -Sanhita in detail as follows: Chapters IV and V* give the Anukramaņi of the 5* There is one doubtfül point on p. 12, line 1. While the wholo chapter deals with : metres of the stanzas occurring in tho ·* [9] metres of the Pūrvārcika. Chapter VI gives that of the Āranya-kānda † and the Mahānāmnyārcika 1 :- Chapter VII deals with the metres' of the Uttarārcika. It must be pointed out here that the method of treatment adopted in this chapter is rather different from that followed in the preceding chapters. While the preceding chapters give metres of the stanzas of the Pūrvārcika etc, exhaustively in detail, this chapter deals only with exceptional cases; ep. in this connection, तृचर्चे पूर्वास्वेवहूत्तराः प्रत्येतव्याः gaar agtla (p. 17, lines 2-3). By the way, it also points out the cases of Vikāras ( ? = irregular metres ). Chapter VIII deals with the colours and deities of the various metres. This is followed by four stanzas describing the sources of the work and eulogizing the science of metre. VI, THE DATE AND AUTHORSHIP OF THE WORK. It is very difficult to assign even a general date to the composition of the Upanidāna-sūtra. The fact that the work is of the same nature as the Anukramaņis of the other Vedas, and is written in the Sūtra style, the tone of its concluding stanzas as well as of the first Sūtra, all this indicates that it must belong to a considerable antiquity. But in spite of all this, it is Púrvārcikn, it is not clear why the stanza safecafea: ANTO: (3081812313) is quoted hero. In the printed texts of the Sāmayeda it occurs only in the Uttararcika. À Cp. Sämavoda-samhitā with the Comm. of Såyana (Bib. Ind.), Vol. 1), pp. 243-365. Cp. Sāyana's Comm. on tho Sāmavoda (Bib. Ind. ), Vol. II, Pp. 366.386.

·[ 10) n strange that the work does not seem to have been referred to by any very old author. Even Sāyaṇa does not refer to it, though he points out metres of stanzıs in his Sāmaveda-bhāșya*. The only work where, so far, I have found the work referred to, and that too very extensively, is the commentary of Deva Yājõika on the Yajuh -sarvānukramanī. Unfortunately we do not definitely know the date of even Deva Yājnika. There is no doubt that Deva Yājñika lived after Sāyaṇa. He quotes Mādhavācārya many times in his commentary on the Yajuḥ-sarvānukramaņi as well as in that on the Kātyāyana-śrauta-sūtra. A comparison of these references shows clearly that this Mādhavācārya is identical with Sāyaņu. For instance, the references to Mādhavācārya on pp. 510 and 733 of Weber's edition (Berlin, 1859) of the Kātyāyana-srauta-sūtra be verified respectively from pp. 217 and 337 of Weber's edition (Berlin, 1859 ) of the S'atapatha-brāhmaṇa. It is thus clear that Deva Yājñika is later than Sāyaṇa. As regards the lower limit we can fix it from MS. of his commentary on the Yajuḥ-sarvānukramaņi existing in the Govt. Sanskrit Library Benares. The MS. belongs to the recently acquired Mahīdāsa ( ?=Mahīdhara ) Collection. transcribed at Kāśi in Sainyat 1619 and was purchased by Mahidāsa in Samvat 1631 | . * I have not so far compared the metres as given by Säyana with the metres as given in this work, and so cannot say whether he is, in any way, even indebted to this work. † For anothor MS. of tho same work, dated Sainva* IG02, sec ). 19t of the Catalogue of the Poona MSS., 1916. can a It was ·( 11 ) Deva Yājñika must have lived at least about 50 years before this. It is likely therefore that the Upanidānasūtra which is quoted as an authority by Deva Yājñika existed even before Sāyaṇa. If so, the question still remains why Sāyaṇa did not utilize it. * As regards the authorship, really we do not know any thing. It is not clear whether the concluding words : ETIE 771 tisaf 7152": have reference only to the last few stanzas or to the whole work. In the latter case it can only mean that the work was composed by one belonging to the school of Gārgya; because Gārgyat himself who is older than Yāska cannot have composed this work which, on its own admission, is partly «lerived from Pingala who is later than Yaska. VIII. CONCLUSION, In conclusion, it is my pleasant duty to express my thanks to the learned editor of the Princess of Wales Sarasvati-Bhavana Texts for the inclusion of this work in that series, and to my friend Pandita Nārāyaṇa S'āstrī Khiste, Sahityāchārya, Assistant Librarian, Govt. Sanskrit Library, Benares, for his ready cooperation in the search of the MSS. of the work. Sarasvati Bhavana, Benares. May 5. 1931, un M. D. SHASTRI. * I have not yot examined the question as to which of the Sakhäs of the Så maveda the Upanidāna-sūtra belongs to. The determination of this question may explain why Sāyana, if he is postarior to the work, does not rofor to it. i Cjx. Indische Studien, sol. VIII.
