Miscellaneous Notes
At the beginning, the text contains aśloka which suggests that ākarṣṇa, uccāṭana and other acts are to be adopted for one's own security. The yantra of kārtaviryārjuna is based on the rudrayāmala (fol. 4a, 1.7). Several other kinds of kārtaviryārjunamantra-s are also mentioned. Tapas and kārtaviryārjunagāyātrī are also stated. Fol. 7b-8b are writen in Sanskrit and Tamil, the latter serving as a gloss for the Sanskrit original. Fols. 23 and 24 are missing in the bundle affecting the continuity of the description of the yantra
