Miscellaneous Notes

This text contains the pratiṣṭhāvidhi portion of aghoraśivācārya's kriyākramadyotikā. Fol. 148a contains the ending portion of the antyeṣṭividhi in the first four lines. This folio which is numbered as 86 in the margin marks the beginning of this text indicating that the previous fols. which are lost here must have contained the other portions of the kriyākradyotikā ending almost up to the concluding portion of the antyeṣṭividhi. The portion contained in this text on this topic does not agree with that in the printed edns. Fols. 148a-156a deal with śilānyāsavidhi which does not have full agreement with the portion in the printed edn. (SIAA). Fols. 156a-180a contain the treatment of śivaliṅgapratiṣṭhāvidhi which agrees partially with that in the printed edn. Then follow the treatment of dvārapratiṣṭhāvidhi and others (fols. 180a-184b), jīrṇoddhāra (184b-187b), gaurīpratiṣṭhā (187b-189a), gaṇapatipratiṣṭhā (189a-189b), dakṣiṇāmūrtipratiṣṭhā, viṣṇupratiṣṭhā, bhaktapratiṣṭhā, mānuṣapratiṣṭhā (189b-192b) and samprokṣaṇa (192b-196a). Treatment of the topics in fols. 180a-196a are of the nature of gloss and must be based on the work of aghoraśivācārya
