<p style='text-align: justify;'>A modern manuscript of the <i>Upoṣadhāvadāna</i>, "an account of an optional fast called Uposhadha or Poshadha [...] It is said to have been imparted by S'ákya himself. The work is divided into three chapters. The 1st treats of the history of the fast; the 2nd, its details; and the 3rd, its obligations" (Mitra 1882: 265). This manuscript contains apparently only the first two parts (<i>Upoṣadhāvadāna</i> and <i>Doṣanirṇayāvadāna</i>), and the language is very faulty. </p>
