[*ENDNOTE #1] It is ludicrous to consider the maṅgalācaraṇa verses as
separately numbered sections.
[*ENDNOTE #2] From this, I would assume that this is not meant to be a
separate section, but refers back to the previous #8.
[*ENDNOTE #3] This paragraph is taken as a separate section number 24 in
the Yadavpur edition, but this doesn't seem to be necessary.
[*ENDNOTE #4] Not found in Mahopaniṣad.
[*ENDNOTE #5] See section 30.
[*ENDNOTE #6] The verse that follows this in LBhāg: dvāravatyāṃ yathā
kṛṣṇaḥ pratyakṣaṃ prati mandiram | citraṃ bataitad ityādi-pramāṇena sa
setsyati ||
[*ENDNOTE #7] See quote from Kālikā-purāṇa in section 26 above.
[*ENDNOTE #8] The metre on this verse is incorrect, mixed jagatī and
triṣṭubh. The second line appears to be missing a syllable. It is probably from
PadmaP, Uttarakhaṇḍa.
[*ENDNOTE #9] So where does this reference come from? BhP 12.12.69? This
is first mention here.
[*ENDNOTE #10] This is the Gita Press reading. GP also has pramāṇāni not
pramāṇānām.
[*ENDNOTE #11] In section 21 above.

[*ENDNOTE #16] Quoted from Nārāyaṇādhyātma in Section 47 above.
[*ENDNOTE #17] Discussed above in Section 8.
[*ENDNOTE #18] yato
[*ENDNOTE #19] The Bhagavat sandarbha reading was parītya lokān
karma-citān... nātyakṛtaḥ.
[*ENDNOTE #20] MuṇḍakaU 2.2.7: divye brahma-pure hy eṣa vyomny ātmā

[*ENDNOTE #22] NTU 5.10 quoted above.
[*ENDNOTE #23] This section is full of quotes from Sruti that should be
pointed out. The section is also quoted in LBhāg 1.5.247-250.
[*ENDNOTE #24] Alternative numbering given as 6.255.56-64
[*ENDNOTE #25] Alt. atropasṛṣṭam. See 3.15.42 above.
[*ENDNOTE #26] Variant - sanandanādyair munibhir vibhāvyam.
[*ENDNOTE #27] I couldn't find this verse in the ViP.
[*ENDNOTE #28] This verse has already been refered to in sections 48 and 56.
The complete verse is:
rūpaṃ yat tat prāhur avyaktam ādyaṃ brahma-jyotir nirguṇaṃ nirvikāram |
sattā-mātraṃ nirviśeṣaṃ nirīhaṃ sa tvaṃ sākṣād viṣṇur adhyātma-dīpaḥ ||
[*ENDNOTE #29] padaṃ in original HV. These verses are 104.9-13 in the
critical edition.
[*ENDNOTE #30] mām eva in original HV.
[*ENDNOTE #31] Quoted above in section 51.
[*ENDNOTE #32] The BhagS reads sarvagasya tathātmā, which is obviously
wrong.
[*ENDNOTE #33] The ViP reading is samasta-śakti-rūpāṇi tat karoti
janeśvara | deva-tiryaṅ-manuṣyādi-ceṣṭāvanti svalīlayā ||
[*ENDNOTE #34] This verse is also cited in sections 48 and 107.
[*ENDNOTE #35] Section 18 above.
[*ENDNOTE #36] I can't find the source of this and the previous verse. The
reading seems to be corrupt - kvācidajayattmanā...
[*ENDNOTE #37] Quoted above in 4.10.
[*ENDNOTE #38] This phrase is found in many places is the Bṛhad-āraṇyaka
Upaniṣad.
[*ENDNOTE #39] dehānte devaḥ paramaṃ brahma tārakaṃ vyācaṣṭe | The
BhagS text has tārakaḥ for tāvakam.
[*ENDNOTE #40] Quoted above in section 94.
[*ENDNOTE #41] Sections 4 and 95 above.
[*ENDNOTE #42] This entire section ending with sparśābhāvād
viśuddhatvam is found in Rādhā-kṛṣṇī̀arcana-dīpikā, pages 10-11.
[*ENDNOTE #43] Not quite sure where Śrīdhara Svāmī's commentary ends.
[*ENDNOTE #44] Both verses quoted above in section 8. This whole section
is found there, word-for word. This is probably an error, surprisingly not called
into question by the Jadavpur editor. Another MS is needed for comparison.
[*ENDNOTE #45] This word is not in the vyākhyā given in section 7, which
otherwise follows word-for-word until ??. This is probably an error,
surprisingly not called into question by the Jadavpur editor. Another MS is
needed for comparison.
[*ENDNOTE #46] The section between superscript a's is not in the earlier
vyākhyā of these verses, but obviously belongs and is likely in the original
version. The same goes for other phrases in between superscripted letters in the
passage below.
[*ENDNOTE #47] ataḥ
[*ENDNOTE #48] miśrasyāpi
[*ENDNOTE #49] nirdeśobhayam
[*ENDNOTE #50] e. Not in the section 117 version.
[*ENDNOTE #51] f. not in the section 117 version.
[*ENDNOTE #52] Not in the section 8 version.
[*ENDNOTE #53] Not in the section 8 version.
[*ENDNOTE #54] Not in 117.
[*ENDNOTE #55] in section 117 tamaḥ
[*ENDNOTE #56] Not in section 8.
[*ENDNOTE #57] This seems to be the end of the common material.
[*ENDNOTE #58] This appears to be evidence that 8 is the original source of
the material, not 117. To be followed.
[*ENDNOTE #59] k. This section can be found in RKAD 12-13.
[*ENDNOTE #60] k. This section is found in RKAD 13-14.
[*ENDNOTE #61] muhūrtādi in the ViP version. There is another verse that
begins this way at 3.5.18.
[*ENDNOTE #62] Discussed above in Section 85.
