2 Those on p. 29, 11. 8, 9, and on p. 33, II. 17, 21 (“course” for “cause”) are mere printer's errors. On p. 29, 1. 21, “intentionally,” I suggest, should be “according to disposition”, or as we should say ad hominem: a usual term in Pali Commentaries for Sūtra-method as opposed to that of Abhidharma. For “trans.”, p. 105, 1. 17, we should of course read “distinguishes between”, or the like.
