Dear list members,

 

 

At the end of each chapter of the K.S.T.S. edition of Abhinavagupta's

Tantrasara there is a verse in Prakrit followed by a Sanskrit gloss in the

notes at the bottom of the page. Can any of the members give me any

information about these verses such as:

 

1) What is the reason for including the verse in Prakrit? Is it a quote by

Abhinavagupta from another source?

 

2) Is the Sanskrit gloss from the manuscripts (i.e. from Abhinavagupta, from

a commentator or from the editors?)

 

3) Is it possible to identify what Prakrit it is?

 

Many thanks,

Harry
