Prakirnaka Sutra

The Prakirnaka Sutras , in short Prakirnaka are the "Holy Text"s (of Jainism) fourth part, called the "Complimentarys", the "Angabahya", The translation of "Prakirnaka Sutras" is "Various texts" or "Collection of Miscellaneous Texts". Only ten of the twenty Prakirnaka are recognized by the Shvetambara, which are the actual majority of Jain believers.[1] These Sutras deal with the "Great Virtues", the Mahavratas, and death. They also name hymns and prayers.

Presumably the texts were written between the VI and XIII< century A.D.[2]
