9. ms. contains one verse which is not found in any other ms. Nor has any commentator commented on this verse. Refer to the foot-note 1 on p. 242.
10. One reading which is yielded by both the and the
mss. is not found in any other ms. Only the printed to edition has accepted this reading along with the reading which we have accepted in the present edition.

11. In sutra 246 (p. 120) there occurs the term 'omulaga'. This ms. has enabled us to select the correct reading. All the editions printed up to this date have the incorrect reading 'ussulaga' at this concerned place. Only Jarl Charpentier in modern times has expressed his doubt regarding the correctness of this 'ussulaga'. He in his notes explicitly states that the term 'ussulaga' can never mean 'having eaten.' All this proves the importance of the oms. The editor who has undertaken the task of critically editing the old text should spend enough time in reading old mss., in scrutinising the readings yielded by them and in selecting the correct reading from among so many. This is the invaluable piece of advice which Late Munirāja Shri Punyavijayaji used to give to those who took up the task of editing old texts.
This is the palm-leaf ms. belonging to the same Bhaṇḍāra. It is written in 1232 V.S. In the published catalogue it is listed under No. 32. In the new list it is given No. 92(2). Its size is 37 cms. X 5 cms. It has 139 folios. Only folio No. 60 has two lines per side. All other folios have 3 to 6 lines per side. Each line has 58 to 64 letters. The first side of the first folio is blank. The text ends on the second side of the last folio (No. 139). At the end there occurs a very brief colophon, viz., 'samvat 1232 phalguni sudi 5 some'.
This ms. yields four readings which are accepted by the author of the Curni but are not available in any other ms. notes 11 (p. 102), 8 (p. 110), 4 (p. 117), 9 (p. 198).
