SOURCES, CONTRIBUTION AND INFLUENCE OF PCV. 295 qualities. (4) R膩ma is said to have strung his bow to dispel the
fear of enemies while protecting the Yaj帽a of Janaka. (5) R膩va峁嘺
decides to kidnap S墨t膩 because she was previously promised to him
by Janaka. (6) Surpanakh膩 is called Candranakh膩. (7) Mandodari
recognised S墨t膩 by the marks on her feet. (8) Hanuman convinces
S墨t膩 of his genuineness by referning to her love-quarrel with
R膩ma and applying of a Tilaka on her forehead by R膩ma. (9)
A峁噓m膩n and other Vidy膩dharas burn the city of Lanka with their
fiery tails. (10) Vibh墨峁�a峁嘺 tries to stab himself but in vain,
The above analysis reveals that in point No. 3 there is influence
of the PCV exclusively. In the points Nos. 1, 2, 4, 6, & 10 there is
influence of the PCR or the tradition of the PCV. In point No. 8 the
reference to a lovequarrel shows the influence of the PCV-PCR tradition.
The reference to the applying of Tilaka (point No. 8) and
the burning of Lanka (Point No. 9) is indicative of the influence
of the VR.
B. Influence on Non-Jaina Works
Now we shall arrange, according to their age, the non-Jaina
works which have been influenced by the tradition of Paumacariya峁�.
1. Works composed in India:
(a) Sanskrit works:
(i) N峁泂imhapur膩峁嘺 (5th cent. A.D. ?) :-It is an 鈥楿papur膩峁嘺' (1)
Stringing of the bow by R膩ma in the presence of many candidates
on the occasion of S墨t膩's 鈥榮vaya峁僾ara' (See Supra, Ch. 3.S.E). (2)
T膩r膩 originally the wife of Sugr墨va (See Supra, Ch. 3.6 G). (3)
Prophecy that the piercer of the trees would be the killer of V盲li
(In the PCV the prophecy is to the effect that the lifter of the Ko峁璱艣il膩
would be the killer of R膩va峁嘺. (See Supra. Ch. 3.7 B).
Dr. R. C. Hazra (See Bulcke, p. 160) holds this Pur膩峁嘺 to be
of the 5th century A. D. But it is an Upapura峁嘺 and the date of
Upapur膩峁嘺s is always posterior to that of the principal 18 Pur膩峁嘺s
which are generally held to have been composed up to the 5th century
A. D. Therefore, its date should very probably fall later than the
5th
cent. A. D. If it is not so, then the Paumacariya峁� and
Nrsimhapurana belong to a contemporary period, hence all the above
points should have some common source.
(ii) Bhatti K膩vya (6th-7th century A.D.):-Appearance of Garuda
when he is remembered by R膩ma (See Supra, Ch. 3.8C).
