Manuscript Features
Fol. 1, which is written in another type of Newari script than fols. 2–26, has been supplemented from another MS. Fol. 10 and 27 are missing, that is, the extant part of the MS ends amidst the commentary on Saṅkhyakārikā 69. Some folios are slightly damaged at the right or left margins.
There is another fol. added to this MS (exposures 28–29), written in Maithili characters, which consists of parts of another commentary on Saṅkhyakārikā 3.
On the back of fol. 1 there has been written the title of the text in modern style Maithili in the following way: sākhyatatvakaumudi (!).
