Manuscript Features
The text is not in standard Sanskrit while giving measurements of idols ("pratimā"), and we have not marked these mistakes below in the excerpt.
From fol. 7r–12v, the manuscript is damaged on the lower right-hand margin of the verso and upper right-hand margin of the recto of each folio, causing a lost of minimal amount letters.
On the front cover-leaf is written:
