2. Minor variants are noted in Bollée 1995: 135f. 3. This “correction" of T by Vaidya, just as his adoption of T's reading at N 198 d,
shows the correctness of Alsdorf's remark in his Itthiparinnā paper (Alsdorf 1974:
194 note 5). 4. Vattha na khiva-m-addena vann'addam citta-kammâdisu árdakan likhitam
Ardrānakșatram likhitam (Cū 413, 12sq.). 5. See Hilka 1910:33. 6. Śrīparni-sovarcaladikam (T II 136 a 2). 7. Muktā-phala-raktásokadikam (T ibidem). 8. Vasayôpaliptam vasârdram (T II 136 a 3). 9. Vajra-lepâdy-upaliptam stambha-kudyâdikam (1.c.). 10. Tattha negama-samgaha-vavahārā ti-viham samkham icchanti, tam jaha :
ekkabhaviyam baddhâuyam abhimuha-nama-gottań ca. 11. The particulars of this process, which stricto sensu seems to contradict Buddhist
conceptions, are told by Buddhaghosa with regard to the future Buddha, but will represent a common Indian idea as the Tusita-devata who form the setting see off the reincarnated in the Nandavana. Sumangalāvilāsinī 430, 11 states that sabbadevalokesu hi Nandavanam atthi yeva. Thus beings enjoying their positive karman in other devalokas will leave these in the same way. (See Bollée, A Note on the Birth
of the Hero in ancient India [in press]). 12. Ekena bhavena yo jīvaḥ svargader ägatya (...) asannataro baddhayuskah (...)
asannatamo 'bhimukha-nama-gotro yo 'nantara-samayam evârdrakatvena
samutpatsyate - ete ca trayo 'pi prakāra dravyârdrake drastavyāh (T II 136 a 6sqq.). 13. In another context (AvCū 526, 4 and in a stanza from a longer metrical quotation
in the vrtti 169 a 1 on Āyār 1, 1, 7,1") mentioned as the teacher of Jiyasattu, Rājā of Vasantapura. I do not understand why this prince in PrPN I, p. 288 no. 15 should probably be identical with a ruler of Rāyagiha of that name in Nirayāv 4, 1, as suggested by Chandra and Mehta at no. 38. A Jiyasattu of Vasantapura is
also found at ÄvCū 498, 6 and 503, 6. 14. For the formation of., e.g., Prince Selaga of Selagapura in Nāyā 1,5. Localisations
like these naturally are of little importance for the historicity of Sūy 2, 6 as already
Basham 1951 : 54 remarked. 15. Here Jinadasa's version diverges in that the nun is reborn in a foreign country
(meccha-visaye) as Addaya, son of Prince Addaga and his queen Dhārini, whereas
