Footnotes explain Jain technical words that the verse uses for numbers: naya is twofold, dravyarthika (the standpoint that considers substance) and paryayarthika (the standpoint that considers modes); ratnatraya, the three jewels, is right faith, right knowledge and right conduct. With eka (one), naya (two) and ratna (three) the verse gives the collar measures that the commentary renders as one, two and three angula.

Why it is kept for review: Jain doctrinal footnotes explaining number code words in a medical verse; no medical content of their own.
