H.C. Bhayani has an essay in vol. 1 of his "Indological Studies" (Ahmedabad 1993) titled "The Apabhraṁśa Passages from Abhinavagupta’s Tantrasāra and Parātriṁśikāvṛtti" (pp. 276–296), originally published in 1971 in Vidyā 14 (2): 1–18. There he attempts to correct/rewrite the 32 Apabhramsha passages in the Tantrasāra are the 7 Apabhramsha saṅgrahaślōkas in the Parātriṁśikāvṛtti. I don't have a soft copy, but he says there (p. 293) “there is nothing specifically dialectal or regional or ‘Kashmirian’ about Abhinavagupta’s Apabhraṁśa.” Prof. Bhayani also noted that the text of these verses as printed in the KSTS edition (in 1918, when Apabhramsha studies were in their infancy) is "a chaotic jumble of letters from which it seems near-impossible to make out any connected verbal structure or palpable meaning." I remember hearing that Paul Gerstmayr was working on these verses at one point._______________________________________________On Sat, Dec 1, 2018 at 3:10 PM Harry Spier via INDOLOGY <indology@list.indology.info> wrote:I was told the verses in the tantrasAra are in Apabhramsa.Harry Spier_______________________________________________On Sat, Dec 1, 2018 at 1:26 PM Artur Karp <karp@uw.edu.pl> wrote:Dear Tatiana, and dear Harry,Strange, somehow. Your exchange contains no information re the language of the vernacular verses ending each chapter of the "Kaashmira (with short 'i'! - TO) Shaiva works".

I vaguely recall looking at a tantrasAra manuscript about 20 years ago that had prakrit verses that were different from those in the KSTS edition. But that was 20 years ago so I could be mistaken.Harry SpierOn Sat, Dec 1, 2018 at 2:22 AM tatiana.oranskaia <tatiana.oranskaia@uni-hamburg.de> wrote:Dear Harry,
Thank you ever so much for the tip!
Are they to be found only in the KSTS edition?
Best wishes,
Tatiana
