58. The preceding two lines possibly reflect a corruption in the scribal transmission of Toh 593. Though there is some variation among the Sanskrit and Tibetan sources consulted, all agree that Jayakara, Madhukara, and the third figure whose name varies are included in the same compound, which accounts for the use of the dative plural form. Treating them as a single compound also aligns with their previous mention in this text above. No version of this passage apart from Toh 593 and its correlates in other Kangyur collections treats the third name separately. Similarly, vidyācārebhyaḥ (“to the masters of spells”) is treated separately in the majority of sources.
