The Dṛṣṭivāda or Drishtivaad ("Disputation about views") is a lost text in the Jain religion. [1] It is the last of the 12 Jain āgamas as per Śvetámbara tradition, said to be promulgated by Māhavīra himself and composed by Ganadhara Sudharmaswami.[ citation needed]
The text is traditionally said to contain the entire knowledge of the Fourteen Purvas. However, its contents have been referred and explained in Nandi and Samavāyānga Sūtra.[ citation needed]
Subdivisions
The Dristivāda was divided into five parts, according to the Sarvārthasiddhi commentary from the Digambara tradition. [2]: 291
- Parikarma, containing Jaina calculatory science
- Sūtra, containing discussion about creeds and narratives
- Prathamānuyoga (Pūrvanayoga), containing Puranic narratives, religious biographies, and illustrative tales
- Pūrvagata, with fourteen subdivisions, containing discussions about Jaina doctrines and principles and may have been composed before the time of Mahavira
- Cūlikā, containing the Purvas, knowledge prior to Mahavira which was preserved only in oral form
