26. Following the Tibetan translation. The Sanskrit manuscript seems to say that their name will be Praṇidhānālaṅkāra or “Adornment of Vows,” though this is only a difference of two syllables from Pratibhānālaṅkāra, which would be the hypothetical reconstruction of the Sanskrit name from the Tibetan translation. Bodhiruci’s Chinese translation (Taishō 310 and 336) has 辯才莊嚴 (“Adornment of Eloquence”), which matches the Tibetan. By contrast, Dharmarakṣa’s much earlier translation (Taishō 334) has 莊飾預知人意 (“Adornment Foreseeing People’s Thoughts”), a name that appears with only slight variation in Kumārajīva’s subsequent translation (Taishō 335), which reads 莊飾豫知人意 and translates the same way (“Adornment Foreseeing People’s Thoughts”). It may be that the name in the Sanskrit bears some correlation to the earlier Chinese translations, but this is not entirely clear to us.
