In the common texts here the author is made to state that the non-Buddhists were *very few*, but the old reading is found in the A text, viz. to, "many" and it is evidently the right one. This reading moreover is confirmed by the Fang-chih which quoting from our pilgrim's account of this country tells us that in it "the non-Buddhists were remarkably numerous".
