Miscellaneous Notes
Copied from a MS belonging to the French Institute of Pondicherry, said to be No. L 68, but no RE number is recorded. There are two extra pages at the beginning, of which the first page records the contents and the second records the title of the text. The beginning page (p.1) records a list of rites to be performed during the installation of śivaliṅga. The text gives various pratiṣṭhā rites, which it attributes in some cases to āgamic sources, notably the suprabheda, svāyambhuva, kāraṇa
