Manuscript Features
The text is copied in corrupt Sanskrit. The apparent errors are not marked in the Excerpt below.
This is the second text of this MTM which is not listed in the PTL separately.
Fol. 6 of the first text is missing.
The date of the copying mentioned in the colophon of the first text is in letters (akṣarātmakāṅka). Since it contains full of scribal errors, we are not able to pick up the date from it. Thus, we could only assume on the basis of paleography that the date of this MS must be 15th century.
