Commentary

Philological commentary

n1	**vinaiyśe as a reading can be ruled out. There is only one name that contains vinaya as an element (wiynarakṣite/wñiyarakṣite in THT 2685 a2, a4, which uses wa and not va), and plenty of names starting with cina- (cinatewe, cinatyuti, cinamitre, cinaupte, cinasene).
n2	Could this be a form of tukṣi?
n3	Taiṣṣi = 太史
n4	It seems that this passage means that Sarwarakṣite gave flour in the form of ready made bread. This bread further can be made into goat-bread (śro-kanti).
