The spelling of the word is corrupt in the printed Gaṇapāṭha, but the Kāśikā reading is supported by Vardhamāna in his Gaṇa-Ratna-Mahodadhi¹ (IV 285) who gives it on the authority of Śakaṭāṅgaja. Another reading seems to have been \*Muchikarṇa\*² (corrupt \*Śuchikarṇa\*, G. R. M., p. 174). - [Previous: c16.68](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.68) - [Next: c16.70](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.70) - [Up: c16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16) ## Cites (1) - [Gaṇaratnamahodadhi](https://indike.org/pramana/in.vedanga.vyakarana.khila.ganapatha-works.ganaratnamahodadhi) — Vardhamāna (grammarian), Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.69](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.jayaswal-1924.c16.69) · Pramāṇa
