Dear Lance,

I wonder whether the name shouldn't rather be Ku"saraajaa, going by the 
Pali:
Ja V 312: kusaråjå pana aham eva ahosin
He is referred to thus throughout the Kusajaataka. But I don't have
the Mahaavastu to hand.
-----
In T1505, this would be quite reasonable due to the way the name is 
transcribed / translated, but in T1506 it definitely has to be something 
like "Ku'sendra / Ku'senda".. It could just be a variant of the name from 
some other canonical source.

Best wishes,
Stephen Hodge
