Miscellaneous Notes

There is an extra folio at the beginning which records a benedictory line - śrīgurubhyo namaḥ and the title of the text - subrahmaṇyapratiṣṭhāvidhi. The physical appearance of folios 70 & 71 makes those two different form the whole bunch, and since the folios are in very bad condition therefore the continuty of the text could not be examined. A secition of this text has been attributed to kumāratantra, vide. fol. 60b, l - 5; " iti kumāratantre kauśikapraśne mahāsaṃhitāyāṃ . . . . Vidhi e . . . . Ssamāptaḥ।
