3 Compare Candranandana’s commentary. Aruṇadatta’s indebtedness to Candranandana was already highlighted by P. Cordier (1901d: 154). Candranandana or his commentary are not explicitly referred to, but Aruṇa may hint at his main source in the introductory verses, where he says to have written his work in oder to elucidate the meaning of the words of the one with the right views (samyadraṣṭuḥ padārthabodhaḥ; see AVI 214). Statements introduced by kecid sometimes refer to Candranandana’s views (compare, for example, Aruṇa and Candranandana ad A.h.Sū.5.16cd–17).
