The Guṇaprabha of Parvata here mentioned is not to be confounded with the great Vinaya master of the same name mentioned by Tāranātha.² Burnouf was of opinion that our Guṇaprabha might be the Guṇamati, Master of Vasumitra, mentioned in the “Abhidharmakośa-vyākhyā”, but there does not seem to be any ground for this unlikely supposition.³ In the 8th *chuan* of our treatise we find a Guṇamati disputing with a great master of the Saṅkhya system.
