Miscellaneous Notes
This is a text on pollution and its observances. It is written in the background of śaiva principles. Fols. 137-138 contain a brief account of brahmotsava; fols. 139-140 contain a portion of the āśaucadīpikā, fols 141-144a contain an index of dealt subjects of the Ms. This Ms. is too brittle, edges on both sides are lost in many leaves, smoe leaves are broken into 2 or 3 parts and hardly possible to put them together, some leaves are of different colours and this is written in different hands. It is very old
