Miscellaneous Notes

This text deals with the festival of skanda. According to the colophon on fol. 46a, iti skanda utsavavidhissamāptaḥ kāraṇāgame, the treatment in this text is based on the kāraṇāgama. The word kumāratantra is written on the margin of fol. 42a. Mention of kāraṇāgama at the end of the last sentence instead of the word, iti does not seem to convey categorically that this is based on the kāraṇāgama. Nor does the word kumāratantra written on fol. 42a in the margin can be seriously taken note of as indicative of the treatment being based on the kumāratantra. besides, the brief treatment given here for this subject does not indicate that the treatment is taken from the kumāratantra. The kāraṇāgama too does not contain the treatment of this topic. Fol. 46b is blank
