A History of the Canonical Literature of the Jainas c8.147

Dasaveyāliyanijjutti. Haribhadra Sūri in his com. on this work says: “णियुं पुर्व्वगतादुद्धृत्य विरचितं” (p. 9ᵇ) and “णियुंहेकं पूर्व्वगतार्थविरचनाकर्त्तारं” (p. 10ᵇ). The editor of this work observes: “यूहे उद्धरण इत्यागमिको धातुरिति न्यायसङ्ग्रहः” (p. 12, fn.). In spite of these explanations, it remains to be ascertained whether nijjuhaṇā means a re-production ad verbatim or that of an essence embodied in words by the author concerned.
