Out of these 7 kinds of Parikamma, the first six which refer to svasamaya, come within the range of the 4 nayas viz. Saṅgaha, Vavahāra, Rjusutta and Saddāi. Negama is of two kinds: Saṅgahiya and Asaṅgahiya. The former is included in Saṅgaha, and the latter in Vavahāra. The Saddāi nayas which are 4, are to be counted as one. So says the Nandīcuṇṇi (p. 106). It further says: All the 7 kinds are accepted by the Ājīvagas, and they are propounded by Gosāla, and they are looked at in three ways. It seems Jinadāsa Gaṇi, the author of this Nandīcuṇṇi makes no difference between the followers of Gosāla, the Ājīvagas and the Terāsiyas.
