THE YUKTIDIPIKA ON THE SAMKHYAKARIKA: CORRECTIONS AND
EMENDATIONS IN THE TEXT
BY
Dr. V. RAGHAVAN
In Volume XII of this Journal (1954-5), Sanskrit Section, I dealt with the textual problems of this important commentary on the Sāmkhya Kārikās and offered a number of corrections and emendations in the text presented by P. B. Chakravarti on the basis of its single manuscript. That paper was to be continued and in the present contribution, I place before students of this work another series of corrections and emendations that have suggested themselves to me during my further study of the text. Apart from passages which are corrupt, there are also those that are very cryptic and obscure, whose anvaya is difficult and which consequently require proper construction. In the following notes I have therefore included such passages also, and offered explanations for them.

P.2
Verse 13
