Review: DASAVEYĀLIYA PĀDA INDEX AND REVERSE PĀDA INDEX; ISIBHĀSIYĀIM PĀDA INDEX AND REVERSE PĀDA INDEX

Dr. Yamazaki and his co-authors had noticed that to date, in the oldest Buddhist texts there were only two indexes of pada of the Suttanipata and the Dhammapada, along with their reverse indeses of the above two works and of the Theragatha padas. In early Jain canonical texts a Jain Agama Series indeed contains an index of the first padas only.

टोक्यो से प्रकाशित दो ग्रन्थों की एक साथ समीक्षा — दसवेयालिय के पद और प्रतिलोम पद अनुक्रम, जो लॉयमान के समीक्षित संस्करण पर आधारित हैं, तथा इसिभासियाइं के, जो शुब्रिंग के संस्करण पर। कंसारा बताते हैं कि बोले से भिन्न इनमें प्रतिलोम अनुक्रम में भी पाठ-सन्दर्भ दिए गए हैं। Two Tokyo volumes reviewed together: pada and reverse pada indexes to the Dasaveyaliya, on Leumann's critical edition, and to the Isibhasiyaim, on Schubring's, by Moriichi Yamazaki with Ousaka and Miyao. Kansara notes they give text-references in the reverse index too, unlike Bollee, and will index four more texts.
