v3.c46.1390

The authorship of the Bhesajjamañjūsā is some ascribed to Atthadassi Thera;69 J. Liyanaratne has proved that this claim is unfounded.70 The colophon of one MS mentions Anomadassi Saṅgharāja as the name of the author. This Anomadassi has been regarded as the one wrote the Daivajñakāmadhenu, but this identification is rejected by J. Liyanaratne. Another Sinhalese scholar claimed, without any evidence, that the Bhesajjamañjūsā was composed by the Pañcamūlapariveṇādhipati Maṃgala Saṃgharāja Māhimi.71
