1 Some spell this name Matfdft/aputra ; he and Mauryaputra were sons of the same mother, V^ayadevI, but different fathers ; the former of Dhanadeva, the other of Maurya. I do not know any legend which connects this Maurya with a king of the Maurya dynasty, which besides would be impossible from a chronological point of view.

Jaina Sutras Part I, passage 115

Jaina Sutras Part I, passage 228

Devarddhi's position relative to the sacred literature of the Gainas appears therefore to us in a different light from what it is generally believed to have been.

For this 1 a man is longing when he destroys this (earth-body) by bad, injurious doings, and many other beings, besides, which he hurts by means of earth, through his doing acts relating to earth. Thus I say. (4)

A fool, doing cruel acts, comes thereby ignorantly to grief. * Through delusion he is born, dies, &c.'

The righteous man who lives up to these sen- timents, does therefore neither kill nor cause others to kill (living beings). He should not intentionally cause the same punishment for himself 2 . (4)
