However, since Patafijali mentions the term varttikaSiilrikaJ} (MBh 2:284.3-4, see also note 19 above), probably referring to the work of one of the Varttika-authors who preceded him (on the problem of Varttikas in Patafijali's MBh most recently Bronkhorst, 1990, p. 128), there is no basis for Ojihara's hesitation.
