Miscellaneous Notes

This text deals with the vāstupūjā and its procedure. It differs in some respects from nos. 118.1 and 204.7. Fol. 1A contains a few lines on vṛṣabhapratiṣṭhā. Fol. 17a-18a enumerates 27 ghaṭādhipa-s for vāstupūjā and has fragments about the same. The scribe salutes one akhilāṇḍapaṇḍita (vide fol. 67a)
