Miscellaneous Notes
For general information see RE 30569a. In fact, only the first text division bears a proper colophon which reads: " iti vātulabhede śuddhākhye varṇapaṭaladvitīyaḥ। "; but all other text divisions, though without colophon, seem to be of the vātulaśuddhāgama because the verses of this text are more or less found in the printed edition of vātulaśuddhāgama. The verses of this text does not occur in the same sequence as in the printed text
