141. The Sanskrit colophon as per Samtani’s edition reads ye dharmā hetu­prabhavā hetus teṣāṁ tathā­gato hy avadat | teṣāṁ ca yo nirodha evaṁvādī mahā­śramaṇaḥ || likhitam idaṁ samvat 319 caitra śukla 9 (Samtani 1971, p. 68): “ ‘For dharmas that come about from causes, the Tathāgata spoke of their causes, and also their cessation: the great śramaṇa speaks in this way.’ This was written in the Saṁvat 319, in the month of Caitra, on the ninth of the white half.” The Sanskrit colophon as per Ferrari’s edition reads śubhaṁ || samvat 1971 dharma­rājena likhitvā divya­deva­śarmaṇāya dattam idam pustakam iti | tat­pustakāt pratilikhitam (Ferrari 1944, p. 587): “Good! In the year 1971, this book was given by Dharma­rāja, after having written it, to Divya­deva­śarmaṇa. It has been copied from that book” (1971 Nepali Samvat = 1915 ce). Stok includes a Tibetan transliteration of the ye dharmā verse, followed by dge’o/ bkra shis par shog. The Comparative Edition (dpe bsdur ma) Kangyur records that the Yongle, Lithang, Kangxi, Narthang, and Choné versions are all missing a colophon and that Stok is also missing a colophon.
