Miscellaneous Notes
This kavaca means an armour, is a type of stotra in which the god is prayed to protect each limb of the devotee. In the present one both naṭarāja and śivakāmasundarī are prayed together, hence the name for this kavaca. IFI.T.657 contains the same text. The text under notice is complete and not published
