84 The title also refers to six hundred evacuative preparations, but, actually, the chapter mentions five hundred of them. The number six hundred indicates that the contents of this chapter are not exhaustive (see Cakrapāṇi's comments and the summarizing verses at the end). See Cakrapāṇi's comments on the term Kalpopaniṣad. See on the meaning of upaniṣad: H. Oldenberg (1896): 457–462.
