karaṇḍaka¦, nt., in cīvara-k° Mvy 9379, would natu- rally be taken as box (for monk's robe), as in normal Skt. and Pali.So one Tib. version (sprog, or dprog). But another Tib. version is sgrog, cord, and Das cites the cpd. chos gos kyi sgrog ma, strings or bands for fastening a religious robe, giving the Skt. as cīvara-karaṇḍaka. Corruption in Tib.? See Jäschke's Grammar 8: pr = Skt. ṭ, gr = Skt. ḍ. The Chin. rendering of Mvy gives cord, with the second Tib. (Note: on Karaṇḍaka-nivāpa see s.v. Kalandaka-n°.)
