Miscellaneous Notes
This text speaks about the saukhya rite consisting in music and dance to be performed in the temple at the time of pratiṣṭhā and utsava. This text has a reference to the origin and the initiation(?) of the temple danseuses and of pañcācārya-s such as nartaka. Though the colophon reads, 'bhedamārgaśatasahasrasaṃhitāyāṃ' nothing is known about it
