Miscellaneous Notes

This text contains an incomplete procedure of performing the festival for bhadrakālī. The 2 colophons on fol.100a and 101b mention the source for this as rudrayāmala. The text begins on fol.100 noted in the margin and ends on fol.112 as found in the margin. The text has an abrupt beginning and contains part of ch.12 and the whole of ch.13. Ninty-nine fols are lost at the beginning. Perhaps they contained ch.11 and 12 of this topic. It is not known whether phaṇimāla and devatāvāhama formed part of this topic as included in the rudrayāmala. Phaṇimālā is known in Tamil as paṇimāla (no.46.2) and contains śloka-s adressed to various deities starting from vighneśvara for blessing the people of the locality where this festival is conducted. Devatāvāhan is incomplete. There is no ms. of teh text in any library
