726 Compare Cikitsākalikā 54 and A.h.Sū.6.159 (triphalā), 55 and A.h.Sū.6.164cd–165ab (trikaṭuka), 56 and A.h.Sū.6.166cd–167ab (pañcakola). 727 The recipe of saḍaṅgapānīya (100), for example, differs from Ca.Ci.3.145cd–146ab (see P.V. Sharma’s notes). 728 The recipe of pippalivardhamāna (115), for example, is a compromise, based on both Caraka and Suśruta (see P.V. Sharma’s notes). 729 The same subject is dealt with in the Carakasaṃhitā (Sū.25.40) and in Vāgbhaṭa’s works (A.h.U.40.48–58; A.s.Sū.13). 730 See P.V. Sharma’s explanatory notes to ed. d for more special features of the work. See also ABI 251–252; AVI 269–270; R.P. Bhatnagar (1992): 273–279; Satyaprakāś 343–347. 731 CBORI XVI, 1, Nrs. 71–73. R.P. Bhatnagar (1992: 267–268) mentions two more MSS which call Tiṣaṭa the son of Vāgbhaṭa; this author is convinced that Tiṣaṭa’s father was the Vāgbhaṭa who wrote the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdaya and Aṣṭāṅgasamgraha. Compare ABI 250; AVI 270; D.Ch. Bhattacharyya (1947b): 152. 732 ABI 250. AVI 270. P.V. Sharma (1972b): 90. The names of several authors from Kaśmīr end in -ṭa. R.P. Bhatnagar (1992: 269) remarks that names ending in -ṭa are common in the whole of western India (see his examples). 733 See P.V. Sharma’s Intr. to ed. d, 2. R.P. Bhatnagar (1992: 269–270), taking into consideration that sun-worship was popular among the Hindus of Sindh and the Pañjāb, assumes that Tiṣaṭa’s family belonged to Sindh. 734 Vṛddhatrayī 462. 735 J. Jolly (1901): 5 (C.G. Kashikar 6), and (1906): 467–468.
