VedaBase => SB 12.2.9 It probably got mixed up in the production process. The Devanagari text at SB 12.2.9 of the present printed BBT edition (LA 1988) p. 40, is actually the same as SB 12.5.9 (p. 144; even there its on the top of a left page!). The typesetter was probably fed the wrong set of data. The list entries "12.2.9" and "12.5.9" differ in only one digit. Or else it was done on purpose, to bewilder the demons! -ek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
