59. Kalyāṇamitra’s commentary ends abruptly on F.326.a in the midst of comments on the “lifting of restrictions on material goods” (Tib. rdzas kyi dgag dbye). No colophon is given and the text even appears to end on an incomplete sentence (F.326.a): rang gi phyogs ma rdzogs par phyogs gzhan la ’jug par mi rigs pas des na dge slong. The Narthang adds sarvamaṅgalaṃ in Tibetan transliteration. Two further textual variations should be noted. First, Kalyāṇamitra comments on the “lifting of restrictions on goods” before glossing the line “nuns, nun postulants, male novices, and female novices should be made to lift restrictions after that,” thus reversing the order in the Kangyur text, the implication being that the nuns, nun postulants, etc. would not receive a portion of the offerings made to the saṅgha. Yijing’s translation, however, confirms the order given in the Kangyur version of The Chapter on Lifting Restrictions, placing the “lifting of restrictions on goods” after both of the two saṅghas, of monks and of nuns, have lifted restrictions (Taishō 1446, 1045c05): 二部僧伽，已作隨意竟.Kalyāṇamitra (F.326.a): de’i ’og tu dge tshul rnams la dgag dbye bya’o zhes bya ba ni rdzas kyi dgag dbye byas pa’i ’og tu dgag dbye byed pa des dge tshul rnams la dgag dbye ba’o/ /de’i ’og tu dge slong ma rnams la dgag dbye bya ba’o zhes bya ba ni dge tshul rnams la dgag dbye byas pa’i ’og tu dgag dbye byas pa des dge slong ma rnams la dgag dbye bya ba’o. And second, Kalyāṇamitra includes a few comments on lines that do not appear in this portion of the received Kangyurs (F.326.a): de tsam gyis nad pa ngal pa dang/ /gnas mal phan phun du ’gyur ba dang/ dus las yol ba dang/ gnod pa ’byung na lan gnyis bzlas so zhes bya ba ni lan gsum bzlas pa de tsam gyis nad pa la ngal ba ’byung ba’am/ gnas mal phan phun du gyur pa byung ngam/ dus las yol ba byung ngam/ gnod pa ’byung ba lta na dgag dbye go bar bya ba’i sngags lan gnyis bzla bar bya’o.
