Miscellaneous Notes

Copied from a palm-leaf MS belonging to Kailasa Bhattar, Tirunelveli. This has been kept in two bundles, numbered T 0293A (pp. 1 - 399) and T 0293B (pp. 402-944). There are 117 extra pages in this text, 55 pages at the beginning and 60 pages at the end of the first bundle (seems wrongly numbered as pp. 340 - 399). The beginning 55 pages record the contents (54 pages) and the title (1 page) of the text. This text is a compilation of āgamavacana-s on prāyaścitta. In one of the beginning extra pages there is a note which reads: "prāyaścittam copied by K. Sadanandan from the palm-leaf manuscript belonging to Kailasa Bhattar, Tirunalveli, 30/05/1969 "
