*45 The correct text may be º´ÉÉxÉÖºÉxvÉÉxɺªÉɸɪÉ: (through it involves UôxnùÉä¦ÉRÂóMÉ) taking into consideration the current of the previous three phrases. Then the translation would be ‘The Resort of self-inspection’. To avoid UôxnùÉä¦ÉRÂóMÉ, Prof. J. J. Pandya suggests the text to be º´ÉÉxÉÖºÉÆvÉÉxÉ +ɸɪÉ: / º´ÉÉxÉÖºÉÆvÉÉxÉä +ɸɪÉ:*

*46 The printed text runs as º´É¤ÉÉävÉnù{ÉÇhÉÉä ¦ÉRÂóMÉ: but the correct text seems to be º´É¤ÉÉävÉnù{ÉÇhÉÉä%¦ÉRÂóMÉ: according to our understanding.

*47 The text should be iÉii´ÉÉi¨ÉYÉÉxɺÉÆnùÉä½þÉä and not iÉii´ÉÉi¨ÉYÉÉxɺÉÆnùä½þÉä which is found in the printed text.

*48 ‡EòiÉÂ / to desire. [Hence, ‡´ÉEäòiÉ: means ‘(any) improper desire’] ‡´É may be a mere expletive having not any special sense. Then the word means ‘Desireless’.
