Background

The Vāyaḍa-gaccha author Jinadatta-sūri’s Viveka-vilāsa – Delight of Discrimination – belongs to the doxographical genre, a group of works dealing with the teachings of various Indian schools of thought. This characteristic appears in the ninth section of the work, where the six philosophical systems are reviewed and refuted. Even so, the work chiefly focuses on Jain orthodoxy in the areas of religious belief and practice. Matters relating to the ideal life of a Jain lay man are treated in detail, as well as related subjects. The date of the work is uncertain.

There are 12 chapters in the work, which end on the following pages in this manuscript:
