17 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.418–425 and 436–449 are also from the Bhāvaprakāśa according to Somadevaśarman's commentary. 18 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.108–112 forms also part of Rasārṇava and Rasendracintāmaṇi according to Somadevaśarman's commentary. 19 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.335–350 is also from the Rasacintāmaṇi according to Somadevaśarman. 20 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.25cd–27ab, 162cd–163, 164, 166, 172, 181 and 396 are also from the Rasamañjarī according to Somadevaśarman. 21 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.161 is also from the Rasapaddhati according to Somadevaśarman. 22 Many more verses are from this source according to Somadevaśarman, for example, 1.18cd, 21cd–22, 29ab, 33–34, 45, 50–51, 75, 357–362, 366–374, 376–390, etc. 23 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.140–148 has also been borrowed from Śārṅgadhara according to Somadevaśarman. 24 This verse is from the Rasendracintāmaṇi according to Somadevaśarman. 25 Somadevaśarman indicates that 1.118–121ab is from the Rasendracintāmaṇi, 1.181 from the Rasamañjarī. 26 These quotations are from the Rasaratnasamuccaya. 27 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.409–414 is also from the Yogatarangiṇī according to Somadevaśarman. 28 P.K. Gode (1935a), who refers to *ed. b. 29 The Sanskrit commentary ad 1.133–134ab quotes Bṛhadvāsiṣṭha. 30 Somadevaśarman's references should be used with some caution, due to the uncertain chronology of many rasaśāstra texts. The Rasendracintāmaṇi, for example, regarded as Mādhava's main source by Somadeva, has borrowed from earlier works.

v4.c63.50.4

Fortunately, Somadevaśarman is well aware of this problem and indicates in several instances that verses, taken from the Rasendracintāmaṇi, ultimately derive from earlier texts, such as Rasārṇava and Rasahṛdaya. 31 The Rasendracintāmaṇi is left unmentioned as one of Mādhava's sources in Gulrājśarmamiśra's commentary. 32 Numbered in agreement with ed. d. 33 Mādhava does not describe his treatise as a compilation, which it clearly is. 34 Āyurvedaprakāśa 1.16–18ab = Rasaratnākara I.1.27–29ab (not indicated in the commentaries); the same doṣas are found in the Rasamañjarī. 35 This classification is found in the Rasaratnasamuccaya. 36 These descriptions are from the Rasendracintāmaṇi and Rasacintāmaṇi according to Somadevaśarman. 37 Defined as a qualitative change in the commentary of Gulrājśarmamiśra (pūrvarūpasya rūpāntaraprāptiḥ).
