1 NCC VI, 284. 2 See: commentaries on the *Carakasaṃhitā*. 3 See: commentaries on the *Suśrutasaṃhitā*. 4 NCC: not recorded. P.V. Sharma (AVI 272 and 307) regards the term *gūḍhavākyabodhakavākyavant* in Cakrapāṇi's introduction to the *Cikitsāsaṃgraha* as pointing to an earlier treatise called *Gūḍhavākyabodhaka*, parts of which were incorporated by Cakrapāṇi in his new book; this *Gūḍhavākyabodhaka* is known in a single MS (Sarasvatibhavan Nr. 44763; see AVI 307). Herambasena, son of Śubhasena, was the author of *Gūḍhabodhakasaṃgraha*, which work was based on Cakrapāṇi's *Gūḍhavākyabodhaka* according to P.V. Sharma, who adduces in support of his view that Herambasena salutes in the introductory verses Cakrapāṇi, Maheśvara and Nityanātha, and professes that his treatise is a summary compiled from *Rasaratnākara*, Cakra, Maheśvara and other works (see NCC VI, 95; STMI 82–83; Cat. IO Nr. 710). N.N. Das Gupta (1936/37: 157) regards the *Gūḍhavākyabodhaka* as identical with a *Cikitsāsāra*, a therapeutic treatise attributed to Cakrapāṇi; this *Cikitsāsāra*, however, is not referred to by any other author. 5 NCC VI, 284: a medical lexicon. ABI 177: describes the properties of drugs. Bhagvat Sinh Jee 210. 6 CC I, 175 and 702; III, 146. NCC: not recorded among the works of Cakrapāṇidatta. Atrideva (ABI 318) mentions a *Sārasaṃgraha* by Cakrapāṇi. Atrideva (ABI 319) and G.

Hāldār (Vṛddhatrayī 470) claim that Viśvanāthasena, paṇḍit at the court of the Gajapati king Pratāparudra and author of the *Pathyāpathyaviniścaya*, wrote a commentary, called *Sārasaṃgraha*, on Cakrapāṇi's *Sarvasārasaṃgraha*. P.V. Sharma (AVI 210) also refers to this commentary. N.N. Das Gupta (1936/37: 157) was doubtful about the identity of the author of the *Sarvasārasaṃgraha* (see his references to some MSS of the work). G.N. Mukerjee (1927: 19) mentions the *Sārasaṃgraha* as a work on treatment, distinct from the *Cikitsāsaṃgraha*. A MS of the *Sarvasārasaṃgraha* (Cat. Skt. MSS. N.-W. P. I, 586, Medicine Nr. 21) probably contains the *Cakradatta*. 7 This work, apparently on grammar, is attributed to Cakrapāṇi by P.V. Sharma (AVI 210) and Haridattaśarman (upodghāta to ed. ee of the *Carakasaṃhitā*, page pha: title *Vyākaraṇacandrikā*). 8 Cakrapāṇi does not mention the title of his work; he refers to it as a (yoga)saṃgraha, i.e., a collection of prescriptions. It should be avoided to call Cakrapāṇi's treatise *Cikitsāsaṃrasaṃgraha*, which is the title of Vaṅgasena's work. 9 NCC VI, 281 and 284. Check-list Nrs. 165 and 166. STMI 42.
