Miscellaneous Notes

This text contains the procedure for attending to daily routine by a 'siva. Fols. 165-186 treat this topic. 15 fols are missing thus affecting the continuity of the treatment. The first line on fol. 165a runs as (ma)ntroddhāravidhir nāma aṣṭamo'dhyāyaḥ. This shows that the 8th chapter is lost. The writing is this text is different from that in the previous text. This is further attested by the first line on fol.165a mentioning that the 8th chapter is over; ch.8 which is over in 330.4 and perhaps ch.9 which deals with nityakarmavidhi could not follow ch.12, 13 and perhaps ch.14 (incomplete) which form part of the text no.330.1.

The text ends with the measurements of the kuṇḍa-s
