1. The alternative title of the sūtra, as found in Kangyurs of the Thempangma line such as the Stok Palace Kangyur, is (following the Tibetan) The Mahāyāna Sūtra “Dharmaketu’s Question” (’phag pa chos kyi rgyal mtshan gyis zhus pa zhes bya ba theg pa chen po’i mdo) or (following the Sanskrit) The Mahāyāna Sūtra “Dharmaketudhvaja’s Question” (Āryadharmaketudhvajaparipṛcchānāmamahāyānasūtra). These titles are also found, with only minor orthographic variation, in the Narthang and Lhasa Kangyurs. Peter Skilling notes that dhvaja in the Sanskrit title is a “pleonastic” insertion (Skilling 2021, p. 208).
