c8.288

*Mahā-Kappasuya*—This work, too, deals with *kalpa*. It is so named either because it is voluminous or because it is deep in meaning. This is probably a *Cheyasutta*; but, on that account it is not possible to identify it with any of the six well-known *Cheyasuttas*. It will be a folly to think that this work is the same as *Kappa* (*Bṛhatkalpasūtra*); for, it is mentioned over and above *Kappa*, in *Visesā*° (v. 2295)⁶
