Re: Kc 12 (omission)

Dear All,

In the following list of eight kinds of vidhisuttas, "paṭisedha" should be
added as the eighth one. I would also like to add that the problem with Mmd
calling vidhisuttas "kārakasuttas" is that the latter-named is apt to be
confused with the suttas of the kārakakappa.

Best, Jim
