14 PAUMACARIU top of the three worlds, who has conquered all the eight (types of) Karmas, who has conquered all the five senses, relying on whom as the support great sages attained salvation, in whose religion kindness towards the living has the chief) place, who has done away with birth, old age and death, who is the refuge of all the three worlds, who possesses the highest spotless lustre, who is free from sorrow and destruction, who is neither male, nor eunuch, nor female (?) who does not partake in any activity, who is indivisi- ble, continually existing and the highest of the high, who is Nārāyaṇa, Sun, Vaiśravana, Śiva, Varuna, Fire, Moon, Wind; who- ever he may be, Abhimanyu was there praying to that deity, and concentrating (on him) (?), he succumbed to death.' Here it is clear that once we are agreed upon the real nature of the Supreme Deity, Svayambhū has no partiality for giving it any specific name, call it Nārāyana or Siva or Wind or whatever you like. A passage similar in spirit to the above can be cited from PC.: किय वन्दण सुह-गइ-गामियहों, भावें चन्दप्पह-सामियहों। 'जय तुहुँ मइ तुहुँ गइ तुहुँ सरणु, तुहुँ माय ३'पु नहुँ बन्धु-जणु ॥ तुहुँ परम-पक्खु परमत्ति-हरू, तुहुँ सन्वहुँ पर पराहिपरु । तुहुँ दंसणे गाणे चरितै थिउ, तुहुँ सयल-सुरासुरेहि णमिउ । सिद्धन्ते मते तुहुँ वायरणे, सज्झाएँ झाणे तुहुँ तक्चरणें ॥ 11 TIT 11 अरहन्तु बुद्ध तुहुँ हरि हर वि, तुहँ अण्णाण-तमोहनरिउ। तुहुँ सुहुमु णिरञ्जणु परम-पउ, तुहुँ रवि वम्भ सयम्भु सिउ । PC. 43 19 4-9 "(Rama) bowed down with devotion to Lord Candraprabha who helps others attain the blessed state (and recited a hymn) 'You are the thought-principle; you are the goal and the refuge; you are mother, father, kinsmen (to me), you are the highest par- tisan; you are the destroyer of the greatest grief; you are the high- est of the high; it is you who are found in Darśana, Jñāna and Caritra; you are bowed down to by all the gods and demons, you are in the scriptures, in Mantras and in grammar, in religious studies and meditation, and in the practice of austerities; you are the Arhat, the Buddha, Hari, as also Hara; you are the enemy of the mass of darkness in the form of ignorance; you are subtle, pas- sionless and the highest abode; you are the Sun, Brahman, Šva- yambhū and Siva'." The third passage is in the Svayambhūcchandas. It is given there anonymously as an illustration of the Adilla that can begin a Sandhi. As shown later on it is very likely that the passage is from Svayambhū's pen. It is as follows: अक्क-पलास-विल्लु अडरूसउ, धम्मिम (उ) ऍम ऍ(जेम?) महुअरु तूसउ । बुद्धाइच्च बम्ह हरि संकर, जे मेराउ देउ हरिसंकरु ।। SC. VIII 39. "Let the pious feel satisfaction in the same manner as a bee (going in search of flower juice indifferently to all the trees alike) the Arka, Paláša, Bilva and Ațarūsa. Let the Buddha, Aditya, Brahman, Hari and Sarkara, causing delight give.......... the last line is a bit obscure). These three passages breathe an air of toleration which pre- ..(?)'
