Indrabhooti Gautama, the Principal disciple of Mahaveera, the 24th Teerthankara composed his speech in the form of Dwadashanga Shruta the knowledge of which reached Acharya Dharasena through Acharya tradition. He taught Bhootabali Acharya and Pushpadanta Acharya some portions of 12th Anga included in Drishtivada and some portions of 5th Anga Vyakhyaprajnapti. They composed Satkarmapahuda in 6000 aphorisms at about the 7th century after Veera-nirvana. It came to be known as Shathandagama. It is said that its commentaries were written by Kundakunda, Shamakunda, Tumbuloor, Samantabhadra and Bappadeva respectively, but these commentaries are not available now. Its last commentator was Veerasenacharya, who completed the compesition of his commentary Dhawala on the 13 the day in the moonlit half of the lunar month of Kartika. This commentary contains 72000 couplets.
In the first portion of Dhawala there is special description of Satpraroopana i.e. Jeevasamasas and Marganas, in addition to the history of Dvadashanga and composition of the book. The language of aphorisms is entirely Prakrit. There are 221 verses of previous acharyas cited here and there out of which only 17 are in Sanskrit and the rest are in Prakrit. One third of the commentary is in Prakrit and the rest is in Sanskrit.
All this Prakrit is almost the same Shauraseni in which the works of Acharyas like Kundakunda are written. The Style of both Prakrit and Sanskrit is very beautiful, refined and mature.
