¹⁹⁴⁶ शास्त्रदीपिका on पू मी. सू II. 1. 2 (p. 101) says: उक्तं ह्येतदाचार्यै.। धात्वर्थव्यतिरेकेण .. गम्यते॥'. This is तन्त्रवार्तिक p 382, then शास्त्रदीपिका proceeds . विवृतं चैतन्मण्डनेन 'कष्टममानाद्रूप .. भावना किं प्रदुष्यति ॥' This is भावनाविवेक p 50 (with slight variations) The भावनाविवेक on p. 61 quotes तथा क्रमव्रतोनित्यं ...मनीयते' This occurs in तन्त्रवा. p 381. The author regrets that M. M. Dr Jha (in Intro, to 'Pūrvamīmāṁsā in its sources' p. 21) asserts, on the very slender basis of the above quoted words of the Śāstradīpikā, that Maṇḍana wrote a commentary on the Tantravārtika. M. M Jha himself felt uneasy about his own sweeping assertion (p. 22 bottom), but he was not able to discover the verse of the Bhāvanāviveka referred to above.
