Commentary
Remarks
| Upper and lower margins are preserved. |
Philological commentary
| n1 | : cf. A 152 b6 lwā tspokinc-äṃ. The meaning 'enjoy' (Malzahn 2010: 999) is based on the etymological connection with tspok 'taste' and does not follow from the passages where the verb is attested. |
|---|---|
| n2 | : cf. A 166 b5 cami ṣoṅkātsāśśi. This word may suggest appurtenance to the Garbhasūtra. |
| n3 | smā(lok): Possibly a trace of the upper part of the l-ligature is seen to the right. This restoration is due to Ilya Itkin (p.c. 8 September 2016). |
| n4 | 4: This reading, which confirms the order of recto and verso, is due to Ilya Itkin (p.c. 8 September 2016). |
| n5 | ṣoṅkātsāñ: This reading, instead of ṣoṅkātsāś(śi), is due to Ilya Itkin (p.c. 8 September 2016). |
| n6 | : See Itkin 2016: 72. |
| n7 | /// ṣiṃñc-äṃ: possibly (klyo)ṣiṃñc-äṃ 'may they hear him'. |
| n8 | tsäknäṣtr-änn o(ki): This reading, instead of tsäknäṣtr-än no(ṣ), is due to Sergey Malyshev (p.c. 8 September 2016). |
