Dear all,

Sometimes, I cannot look up some "difficult words or phrases" in Atthakatha or Tika of a certain sutta.  However, those words or phrases could be found in another Atthakatha or Tika as well.  So, I have 2 particular questions:

[1]  Could we use another Attthakatha or Tika for reading a certain Sutta?  How could we know it will be the same meaning with the word/phrase that we are dealing with

[2]  Whether 2 separated Atthakathas/Tikas could be conflicted with each other?  If yes, what are your advices for this case?

Sincerely yours,

Huynh Trong Khanh
