b Sushena's Ayurveda Mahodadhi – Annapanavidhi (Dietetics in Ayurveda), edited with Introduction by Sri S. Venkatasubrahmanya Sastri, Tanjore Sarasvati Mahal Series No. 20, Madras Government Oriental Series LX, Tanjore 1950; this ed. is based on three MSS which are not described. References are to b. 1231 It is called Āyurvedamahodadhi in all the colophons of the ed., but Annapānavidhi in the opening lines (omitted in CBORI XVI, 1, Nrs. 21–23). 1232 Compare DGV IV, 286–287. 1233 MS Nr. 21 of CBORI seems to contain three more sections than the printed text: mukhavā-sādhikāra, dhūpavarga, and vājīkaraṇavidhi.

This view is based on the opening lines of Dāmodara's Ārogyacintāmaṇi, which refer to āyurvedamahodadhi, which is not the title of a treatise there, while, moreover, Suṣeṇa is left unmentioned. Cat. BHU (see Nr. 20) also regards the Ārogyacintāmaṇi as a commentary. 1236 CC I, 155, 596, 730; II, 175: Śārīraka by Suṣeṇa, written under his pseudonym Śrīsukha; compare CC I, 643 (Śārīraka by Śrīmukha) and 675 (Śārīraka by Śrīsukha).
