Some notes on the Tattvasamgraha

                               p. 354

            Due  praise  has  been  paid  to  the  remarkable
        edition    of   the   Tattva-samgraha    by    Embar
        Krishnamacharya,   accompanied    by   an   excellent
        Introduction, and to the Foreward  where  the General
        Editor of the Gaekwad's  Series has given much useful
        information. My only aim is to give some  references:

            1. The karikas 222, 223, 285, 311, 328-9, 336 are
        quoted  by  Prajnakaramati   in  his  commentary   to
        Bodhicaryavatara, ix. 58.

            2. The stanza (cited on p.129)
            drstidamstravabhedam    ca   bhramsam    caveksya
            karmanam  /  dasayanti jina  dharmam vyaghripota-
            paharavat //

        is quoted  from Abhidharmakosa, chap.ix, translation,
        p.265. The author is Kumaralabha (or Kumaralata). The
        whole chapter on the Vatsiputriyas is closely related
        to the Kosa;  for instance, the argument  asti sattva
        upapadukah   (p.129)   is  discussed   on  p.256  and
        bharahara is discussed on p.256.

                               p. 355

            3.  The  beautiful  analysis  of  the  nature  of
        Bodhisattva, p.872, owes  also  much  to Vasubandhu's
        Kosa.  The sentence yatha Kecid upalabhyante 'titaram
        abhyastanairghrnya......is textually to be found in
        chap.iii,  translation, p.191, 1.  18  (compare  vii,
        p.84).

            4.  The karikas 3241-3242, tasmin dhyanasamapanne
        .....are quoted in the commentary to Bodicaryavatara,
        ix, 36 (with the addition  uktam ca).  [The quotation
        which follows  is from Nagarjuna's  Catustava].  This
        theory that the Buddha  himself  did not preach is an
        old one: the Vibhasa explains  at lengh that men will
        not believe what men say, because men are liars.  But
        they  will  have  confidence  in the  word  Of trees,
        because trees, not being "living beings" (sattva), do
        not lie.

            5. The Isvarapariksa is to be compared with Kosa,
        chap.ii, p.311 and Bodhicaryavatara, ix, 119-126.

            6.  The text  p.126, 1, 6, is Anguttaranikaya, i,
        p.22: ekapuggalo  bhikkhave  loke uppajjamo uppajjati
        bahujanahitaya......  katamo   ekapuggalo?  tathagato
         ....... Quoted  in  kosa,  ix,  transl.  p.259.  The
        Sammitiyanikayasastra, Nanjio 1272, Takakusu, vol.32,
        refers to that Agama.

            7. As noted in the Foreword, p.lvi, the words and
        doctrines  of  the  Traikalyapariksa,  p.505, can  be
        traced  in  the  Vibhasa, in the  Kosa,v, 25  and  in
        Samghabhadra's   commentary   to   the   Kosa.    The
        Tattvasamgraha  gives  us some technical  terms which
        had   not   been   correctly    read   through    the
        Tibeto-Chinese     translations,     for     instance
        anyathanyathika.
