Miscellaneous Notes
This text states different views concerning the celebrations of skandaṣaṣṭhī. It is very brief and seems to be a manual for priests
Manuscript Beginning
tulāmāse tu saṃprāpte prathamāyāntithau śucau। kartavyaṃ ṣaṇmukhasyāsya pūjā ṣaṣṭhyantamuttamam। āśvayukśuklanandāntaṃ vrataṃ kuryāt vratotsavam।
Manuscript Ending
tulāmāse samārabhya kṛttikāyāṃ samāpayet। madhyamantviti vij~eyaṃ kanyasaṃ kṛttikā(ṃ?)yajet॥
