  75. kramaśaḥ sva.citta.dṛśya.dhārāṃ] A; C kramaśaḥ sva.citta.dṛśya.citta.dhārāṃ; Pn sva.citta.dṛśya.dhārāṃ kramaśaḥ.↩
  76. sva.citta.dṛśya.dhārāṃ] A and LAS (and TIB); C sva.citta.dṛśya.citta.dhārāṃ.↩
  77. hāsya.lāsya.gīta.citra.vīṇā.lekhya.yogāḥ] AC; Pn .vāditra. for .citra., but cites citra as the reading of the Tibetan.↩
  78. sva.citta.dṛśya.dhārāṃ] A and LAS (and TIB); C sva.citta.dṛśya.citta.dhārām.↩

  84. sarva.śikṣāmananatayā] C sarvaśikṣā amananatayā; A sarvaśikṣāmananyatrayā; Edgerton (BHSD, p. 417) notes that Foucaux translates mananā as ``pride'' based on his work with the Sanskrit and Tibetan versions of the Lalitavistara. This fits the context here, where amananatā is equivalent to rlom sems ma mchis pa. Pn emends this to .śikṣāmanyatayā.↩
  85. bodhisattvam] AC; Pn bodhisattvaṃ mahāsattvam.↩
  86. syād] A; C syān; Pn syat.↩

  91. akṣūṇa.] C 'kṣūṇa.; A akṣaṇa. (n.b. lack of vowel sandhi native to both MSS). It is not clear which reading is preferable. Regarding this term, Edgerton (BHSD, p. 3) notes that ``all the mss. in the Divy akṣuṇa., or akṣūṇa.; ed. always akṣuṇṇa.,'' and he prefers the reading akṣaṇa., asserting that the former readings are ``hyper.Skt. for Pali akkhaṇa... which really derives from Skt. ākhaṇa, target.'' The Tibetan translation, mi 'chor ba, is presumably based on the reading akṣūṇa., as found in MS C. I have chosen to follow the reading akṣūṇa., as this reading is also found in MS A subsequently.↩
  92. akṣūṇa.] C; A akṣaṇa.. Again, lack of vowel sandhi is common to both MSS.↩

  116. piṇḍa.] A; the reading in C is not certain: it seems to read piṇḍī., but the vowel marker looks as though it had been incompletely erased.↩
  117. śikṣate] A śikṣite (corrected in MS to śikṣate); C śikṣito bhavati |.↩
  118. sthito] C (also Pn); A visthito (corrected to sthito in MS).↩
