Notes
- 1. See our note on this word under EIAD 20, l. 1.
- 2. Sircarm, who reads sakasamayaparasamayasa- suggests to reconstruct -samyakpāraga-, which is unlikely. He also did not identify literary parallels to this expression. Our understanding of this pair of notions is informed by the passage shared by Visuddhimagga 522 and Vibhaṅga-aṭṭakathā 130, and discussed in Cousins2001. For a lenghtier discussion, see Tournier2018, who argues this series of titles point to Theriya-Vibhajjavādins monks.

[20] Remarks: Field register no. 214. See remarks on 063-064. ARIE is confusing about provenance; Raghunath's atribution of this pillar to Site-113 is an error. The site must be called Nagutaravihāra (occurences of nāgutara/nakutara in EIAD 80, 92.2, 220 and unnumbered potsherd).

Commentary
The inscription abruptly ends at the end of l. 6 and the other two sides of the pillar (the fourth side is hollowed and stood against a wall) do not contain any inscribed text.
