The following remarks were at the beginning of the original word file:

Explanatory Remarks 1. This is a database of Ratnakīrti’s works. It includes the whole work in the Ratnakīrtinibandhāvaliḥ. 2. The list of the works is as follows: 1) Sarvajñasiddhiḥ 2) Īśvarasādhanadūṣaṇam 3) Apohasiddhiḥ 4) Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhiḥ-Anvayātmikā 5) Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhiḥ-Vyatirekātmikā 6) Pramāṇāntarbhāvaprakaraṇam 7) Vyāptinirṇayaḥ 8) Sthirasiddhidūṣaṇam 9) Citrādvaitaprakāśavādaḥ 10) Santānāntaradūṣaṇam 3. The texts used for this database are as follows: 1), 2), 3), 4), 6), 7), 9) and 10): Ratnakīrtinibandhāvaliḥ, ed. A. Thakur, Patna: Kashi Prasad Jayaswal Research Institute, 2nd ed. 1975. 5): An Eleventh-Century Buddhist Logic of Exists, A. C. Senape Mcdermott, Dordrecht-Holland: D. Reidel Publishing Company, 1967. 8): La Refutation Bouddhique de la Permanence des Choses (Sthirasiddhidūṣaṇa) et la Preuve de la Momentanite des Choses (Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhi), K. Mimaki, Paris: Instititut de Civilization Indienne, 1976. 4. I give the page and the line numbers in two different ways. 4.1 The numbers in each individual database but 5) and 8) correspond to the page and the line numbers in Thakur’s second edition. For instance, [30.10] indicates the page 30 and the line 10 in the edition. The numbers in 5) and 8) respectively correspond to those which appear in Macdermott’s and Mimaki’s editions. Therefore, their numbers indicate the page and the line numbers in Thakur’s first edition. 4.2 The whole number in the database of Ratnakīrtinibandhāvaliḥ corresponds to the page and the line numbers in Thakur’s second edition. 5. I have made a critical edition of the Kṣaṇabhaṅgasiddhi-Anvayātmikā on the basis of three previous editions and the manuscript from the Nepal National Library. I have also improved its some parts with the Pathna manuscript, Jñānaśrīmitra’s Kṣaṇabhaṅgādhyāya and other Naiyāika’s works, such as the Nyāyabhūṣaṇa and the Tātparyaṭīkā. However, I have made the database of other works without a thorough investigation of them. I have intended to use it as a reference for reading the Anvayātmikā. Thus, I must admit that there are lots of errors and misspellings in this version. I would appreciate it if the user would point out any mistake in this database so that I can improve it.
