I, 3, i, i, suttd. amu#i, munino satata/^ ^dgaranti. Such phrases differ in style from the rest of the prose part ; but it would be impossible to draw the line between them and the work of the real author. From what has been said, it will appear how difficult it is to do justice to such a work as the first book of the A&irdnga in the first attempt to translate it. In most cases I have contented myself with rendering the text according {o the interpretation of the commentator.

Jaina Sutras Part I, passage 262
This then is the most natural interpretation we can place on the tradition about the fourteen Pflrvas^ that they were the oldest sacred books, which however were superseded by a new canon.

There are beings living in water, many lives ; of a truth, to the monks water has been declared to be living matter. See ! considering the injuries (done to water-bodies), those acts (which are injuries, but must be done before the use of water, e.g. straining) have been distinctly declared. Moreover he (who uses water which is not strained) takes away what has not bden given (i.e. the bodies of water-lives). (A Bauddha will object) : ' We have permission, we have permission to drink it, or (to take it) for toilet purposes/ Thus they destroy by various injuries (the water-bodies). But in this their doctrine is of no authority.

No, would answer the pious believer in Buddhism or Gainism, that was impossible ; but the true faith was re- vealed in different periods by numberless prophets, and so it will be in the time to come. The theory of former prophets seems, therefore, to be a natural consequence of both religions; besides, it was not wholly unfounded on* facts, at least as regards the Gainas. For the Nirgranthas are never spoken of in the Buddhist writings as a newly risen sect, nor N&taputta as their founder.
