Stok, Toh 613, and Toh 989 read: rdo rje rdo rjes ’dren ma. The Yongle and Kanxi Peking Kangyurs read: rdo rje rdo rje ’dren ma. This translation is tentative. The word ’dren ma is an old Tibetan term meaning “mixture” or “variety” that is related to the more common ’dres pa, and, following Negi, understood as corresponding to the Sanskrit saṃkīrṇa or kalmāṣa. The Tibetan ’dren ma as a translation of the Sanskrit nāyikā, referring to Cundā as the “leader” or “principal deity” is also possible, but this reading leaves the phrase rdo rje rdo rjes somewhat difficult to resolve. - [Previous: notes.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.goddess.cundadevidharani*bo-d989~en-84000.notes.18) - [Next: notes.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.goddess.cundadevidharani*bo-d989~en-84000.notes.20) - [Up: notes](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.goddess.cundadevidharani*bo-d989~en-84000.notes) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.goddess.cundadevidharani*bo-d989~en-84000.notes.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.dharani.goddess.cundadevidharani*bo-d989~en-84000.notes.19) · Pramāṇa
