Manuscript Features

This manuscript comprises at least three originally independent manuscripts, each of which contains several stotras. Additionally, there are a number of prakīrṇapattrāṇi.

The content is: Āryāvalokiteśvararūpastava (complete, 4 folios), Āryāvalokiteśvarasya Karuṇāstavastotra (complete, 6 folios), Carpaṭipādastotra (complete, 6 folios), Viṣṇusahasranāmastotra (complete, 21 folios), a [[A 1311-22(5) [Viṣṇustotra]|Viṣṇustotra]] with unknown name (incomplete, 3 folios + 1 in another format, but similar in content), 1 prakīrṇapattra (stotra), a part of another manuscript consisting of folios 30 to 34 with a [[A 1311-22(6)[Śivastotra]|Śivastotra]] (title unknown) and the Navagrahastotra, and finally one folio with praises of Gaṇeśa.

Most of the folios are well preserved. Writing is rubbed off on a few pages of the Viṣṇusahasranāmastotra.
