Miscellaneous Notes
Though folios of the text beras a probable number in square backet still the disorderliness of the folios can not be avoided, because of the poor condition of the manuscript. Some time the colophons to some text divisions are not clear. The colophon to 1st text division reads as: ' iti mahāśivatantre sūlinīdurgākriyāvidhāne divyaśāsanannāma prathamopadeśaḥ ॥ '. Folio 53 is blank. This text may be a part of ākāśabhairavakalpa whic deals with sūlinītantra
