Miscellaneous Notes

Similar to Cat. no. 54. This text deals with the procedure of festival in the temple. It deals with vijñāpanapūjā, vṛṣādhivāsa, dhvajārohaṇa, aṅkurārpaṇa etc. and abruptly breaks off with pratisarabandhana. The author whose name is not known states at the beginning that he is writing this work based on the kāmika and other āgama-s for the easy understanding of the novices in the field
