It is interesting to note that this Tibetan translation gives the Sanskrit title Candrasūtra, while its presumed Theravāda source would have had the title Candimasutta. It is possible that the translators and later editors Sanskritized the title in accordance with the translation practices of the time. The title Candrasūtra is not attested in Sanskrit works, but the title Candramaṇḍalasūtra is documented in a Sanskrit fragment from Central Asia that lists different sūtras.¹⁶
