Miscellaneous Notes

This text deals with the need to have the place where homa is to be performed cleansed and kept pure. The fire oit is also described. The last passage seems to be a citation from the ajitāgama which is mentioned there. As the opening passage is adressed to kamalāpapti that is, viṣṇu, the text may be taken to be part of the ajitāgama
