      ab: This study presents a detailed analysis of the narrative of Goyama and the ascetics of Mount Aṭṭhāvaya in the Āvaśyaka Cūrṇi , including text and translation. By identifying a range of themes, intertexts and allusions in the narrative, a variety of Jain perspectives on the nature of asceticism are uncovered. Topics covered include the Āvaśyaka Cūrṇi as "commentary", the Āvaśyaka Niryukti background to the Āvaśyaka Cūrṇi narrative, some possible Śaiva allusions in the narrative, the significance of Goyama's physical appearance, Goyama's explanation of the canonical story of Puṃḍarīa, and Goyama's power of bestowing limitless food. In addition to the narrative told in the Āvaśyaka Cūrṇi , its earliest metrical version in the Uttarādhyayana Niryukti is discussed and translated as well.
