However, the reading of this word (Sanskrit vikraaya) has variant readings: (1) in some editions (eg. Gajendra Gadkar) it is vikkaña, (ii) in some editions (Shastri, Sahitya Akademy), it is vikkaaśća, that is, genitive in accordance with tae Prakrit rule, (iii) in some editions (Pischel) vikkaastar according to the rules of Hc.'s Prakrit grammar-- sthar-thayo staḥ (4, 290). Pischel also ultimately pre-suppose the reading Sanskrit vikrayārthań to avoid grammatical irregularities in Prakrit. However, at least the reading vikkaāa shows that that reading was prevalent or the time of RBh, and hence, it was necessary for him to justify the reading by quoting a Sūtra, tādarthye, which has a parallel in Hc. (4,290).
