·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 B?) of the Upanidāna-sutra 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 Yajuh-sarvānukramaņi with the commentary of Deva Yājñika. In this commentary I noticed a great many Sūtras on metre quoted from a work called Chandogapariģişta. 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 Chandog apariśişta. It led ing to re-examine the alove-mentioned sources with a ·more [ 2 ] view to find out whether they referred to any MS, of the work by the name Chandogaparisişta or by any other name which had any connection with it through sense or sound. The result of this re-examination was very once ncouraging. 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 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. B1.-The first MS., called B1 by myself, begins on folio 1° and ends on fol. 8'. There are on an 'average 10 lines in a page and 21 lettors in a line. The size of the fols, is 7.7" x 4.1" inches. It begins thus:--( sic ) ' HA DIETT 9A: I pura.

On the title-page is written probably by a later hand: ( sic ) उपनिदान ८ पत्राणि तत्र. केशवजीसूत् रतनजीनी पोथी सही ॥ गीरधरजी प्रभुजी पाठनार्थ ॥ त्रा० ( name illegible ) ने भाग पावा Another hand, probably of our own Library, has written on the same page : ७. उपनिदानसूत्रम्. After the colophon, given above, a later hand has written one line 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 of Pll painted red. The end of chapter VIII is indicated similarly by Ill after SERIE Tisut TTT: ( 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-stadza is followed either by one or two strokes like or ll. पृष्ठमात्रा is often used in the MS. B.-The second MS., colled BP by myself, begins on fol. 1° and ends on fol. 74. 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 ) मोनमः सामवेदाय नमः ॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥ोम्॥ अथातश्छदसा विचयं व्याख्यास्यामो' गायत्र्यु. निगनुष्टुब वृहती पङ्कित्रिष्टुब्जगतीति सप्तार्षाण्ये'काक्षरपदादीनि चतुरक्षराधिकानि प्रतिछंदसं' गायत्र्यादीनामुस्कृतिरवसानं' छंदसा. मार्ष' लौकिक' च'...... It ends thus:-(sic) यथा छंदोभिराछंना' देवान्मत्स्या- निवोदके ॥ नह्यऽपश्यत्पुरा मृत्पु'रमृतत्वं' ततो गताः ॥ ३॥ छंदो. विदेव धिप्रस्तु' धर्मतस्तद्गुणाऽश्रितः ॥ छंदसामेति सालोक्य'ममृ. तत्वं च गछतीस्याह भगवान् गाग्र्यो गार्गः ॥ १०॥४॥ इति छंदः समानः ॥ संवत् १७१४ वर्षे भ्राद्रषदि १० लिखित व्या० जनासुतण्या० खोखलासुत व्या० गोकलसुत व्या गदाधरण 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 c lll just before, and not after, the last four stanzas. The significance of Il poll after shirent oyid:, as shown above, is not quite clear. Like Bi 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 / written ·[ 5 ] 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 M8. does not always coincide with that adopted by myself in the printed text, and to my mind is, in many casos, 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 B?. Both BP and B2 write the real anusvara ( as in graife :) as 2 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 alreadý hinted, the division of the Sūtras, as ·[ 0 ] 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 B?, I bare 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 Ķgveda prātisākhya, Pingala-sūtra and the Yajuḥsarvānukramani, Uoder these circumstances, thore is some likelihood of my division of the Sūtras being incorrect in some cases. It is maiuly 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 more numbers, I have added colophons, e. g. xfa GUATSOITT:, at the end of each chapter. The word Adhyâya, assigned to these chapters, is also mine and has no traditional basis, as far as my information goos. The stanza aggrerfreugala for 154 AGIAA: 1 निदानादुक्थशाखाच्च छन्दसांझानमुद्धृतम् ॥ on page 23 as well as the fact that the work is divided into eight chapters led me to use the word Adbyāya for them on the analogy of the Pingalagūtra, which also consists of eight Adhyāyas. As rogards 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, + ·[ 7 ] I have also given references to 'gome parallel passages in other works on metre. ; IV, NAME AND NATURE OF THE WORK, Às 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 name 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 5. On pages 38 and 257 of Stein's Catalogue of Jammu MSS, the work is called triticfag. 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 Yajuh-sarvānukramaņi refers to the same work by the naine retrofite 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, beoause it is more significant than the others inasmuch it readily signifies the nature of the work that it is, like the Nidāna-sūtra, connected with the Sāmaveda. It also shows the dependence of this work on the Nidāna--Sūtra, which is clearly stated in the stanza : muy fear etc. quoted above. Moreover, the see ·( 8 ) : ! 1 MS. B? which calls it Upanidāda is the oldest, as far as I know, of all the dated. MSS. of the work), Though By calls, it mộrely Upanidāda,; 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 Rgvedic Chandonukramaņi of S'aụnaka, it also aims at giving an Anukramaņi of the metres of the Sāmaveda-samhitā, with the only difference that like the Sarvānukramaņīs 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, Asura and Prājāpatya metres on the hand, and those of Yajuh, Sāman and Rg on the other. -;.. Cbaptors IV, to VII form the nucleus of the book and deal with the motres of the Sänavada--sumhitā iu detail as follows: Chapters IV. and Vk give the Anukramani of the * There is one doubtfal point on p. 12, line 1: While the whole ohápter deals with metres of the stanzas occurring in the . -- one ·[ 9 ] metres of the Purvārcika. Chapter VI gives that of the Āranya-kānda t and the Mahānāmayārcika I 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 Purvārcika etc. exhaustively in detail, this chapter deals only with exceptional cases; .op. in this connection, तृवर्चे पूर्वास्वेवर्दूत्तराः प्रत्येतव्याः Fairy aftla (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 compasition 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 Pārvārcika, it is not clear why the stanza sferaforg: ATTO: (5081819313) is quoted hero. In the printed texts of the Sāmaveda it occurs only in the Utlarärcika. † Op. Sămaveda-samhita with the Comm. of Sâyana (Bib. Ind.), Vol. II, pp. 243-365. Cp. Säyana's Comm. on the Sāmaveda (Bib. Ind. ), Vol. II, pp. 366-386. 1 ·[ 10 ] strange that the work does not seem to have been referred to by any vary old author, Even Sāyana does not refer to it, though he points out metres of stanz:ıs 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 Yajuḥ-sarvanukramaņi. Unfortunately we do not definitely know the date of even Deva Yājñika. There is no doubt that Deva Yājñika lived after Sāyaṇa. He quotes Mādhavācārya many times in his commentary on the Yajuh-sarvānukramaņi as well as in that on the Kātyāyana-śrauta-sútra. A comparison of these references shows clearly that this Madhavācārya is identical with Sāyaṇr. For instance, the references to Madhavācārya 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 Yājõika is later than Sāyaṇa. As regards the lower limit we can fix it from MS. of his commentary on the Yajuḥ sarvā. nukramaņi existing in the Govt. Sanskrit Library, Benares. The MS. belongs the recently acquired Malīdāsa ( ?=Mahīdhara ) Collection. It was transcribed at Kāśi in Samvat 1619 and was purchased by Mahidāsa in Saṁvat 1631 7. * I have not so far compared the metres as given by Säysna 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 Samva* 1602, se p. 19% of the Catalogue of tho Poona MSS., 1916. can a to ·( 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 Yājổika 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 : इत्याह भगवान् गाग्र्यों गाय: 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 Gárgyat hiniself who is older than Yāska cannot have composed this work which, on its own admission, is partly derived from Pingala who is later than Yāska, 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 Sastri Kbiste, Sahityāchārya, Assistant Librarian, Govt. Sanskrit Library, Benares, for his ready cooperation in the search of the MSS. of the work Sarasvati Bhavana, Benares, M. D. SHASTRI, May 5. 1931. * I have not yet examined the question as to which of the S'akhās of the Sāmavoda the Upanidăna-sūtra belongs to. The determination of this question inay explain why Sāyana, if he is pngtarior to the work, does not refer to it. Cp. Indische Studien, Yol.
