Written by Prajñākaramati (950–1030), the ''Bodhicaryāvatārapañjikā'' is considered to be the most important Indian commentary on the ''Bodhicaryāvatāra''by Śāntideva. This commentary explains the words in the verses (''tshig 'grel''), with additional commentaries on difficult points. Excluding The Dedication Chapter, it has only nine chapters. +

:The first group of scribal hands seem to be those of students. The
master of the project was most likely ‘the red ink corrector’. This is
not simply a later reader’s hand, since sometimes the main text leaves
spaces for akṣaras it could not make out in the exemplar awaiting
consultation with red ink. Judging by the misread akṣaras, the
exemplar was in a very similar, Eastern script. The folios may have
been recycled. It is as if sometimes we can see the previous akṣaras.
Double daṇḍas are on the whole used very thoughtfully, so I have
decided to keep them. The main scribe/s has a strange propensity
towards gemination in ttva even if it is not needed, e.g. the abstract
suffix.
:As for the text, it seems like lecture notes in a reading of the BCA and
the BCAP side by side. However, there are original comments, too.
