Miscellaneous Notes

This contains the procedure of installing cala (movable) liṅga for personal worship. The author mentions in the colophon on fol. 383a that he is the pupil of one candraśekharabhaṭṭāraka, a resident of kamalālayapura and that he himself bears the same name. As stated by the author (fol.383a) this work was written by him following aghoraśivācārya. This text is identical with IFI.T. 370 pp.283-300 which is called calaliṅgapratiṣṭhāvidhi. This text which has 125 grantha-s is perhaps an abridged version of the text in IFI.T. 464b
