Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)

Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammar

Vimalamati (विमलमति).—An old grammarian who is believed to have written a gloss named भागवृत्ति (bhāgavṛtti) on Pāṇini's Sūtras to which the grammarians Purusottamadeva, Sīradeva and others of the twelfth century refer. Some scholars say that भागवृत्ति (bhāgavṛtti) was written by भर्तृहरि (bhartṛhari); but it is not feasible, as there is a reference to Māghakāvya in भागवृत्ति (bhāgavṛtti). In books on grammar,. especially of the Eastern School in the 11th and the 12th century, there are several quotations from the Bhāgavṛtti. See भागवृत्ति (bhāgavṛtti).

Vimalamati (विमलमति) is mentioned in chapter 5.1 [śāntinātha-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.

Accordingly:—“[...] Then from the destruction of ghātikarmas, the great muni’s omniscience arose, a mirror for the reflection of the universe. Gods and asuras came together quickly like servants, wishing to make his omniscience-festival. Abhinandana and Jagannandana, Vahnijaṭin, Trijaṭin, Arkakīrti, and Puṣpaketu; and flying ṛṣis, Vimalamati and others, circumambulated Bala, bowed, and sat down.”.

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
