*Joṇipāhuḍa*—In the com. (pp. 401 and 753) on *Kappa* it is said that this is a section of *Puvva*. *Visehacuṇṇi* throws greater light on it. There it is said that animate objects from *ekendriyas* to *pañcendriyas* can be generated by one who knows this *Joṇipāhuḍa*, and Siddhasena Sūri had accordingly generated horses.¹ The pertinent lines are: “तत्य ओरालिय एगिंदियादि पंचविंदं तं जोणिपाहुडलिणा, जहा सिद्धसेनावरिएण अस्सा पत्ता।”—*Jainayuga* (I, 3, p. 90)
