Miscellaneous Notes

This contains the complete text of the kālavidhāna, a work on the fixation of the exact time of various domestic rites and its commentary. The names of the authors of neither the work nor the commentary is given in the text. This text seems to be different from many works of this name mentioned in N.C.C. Vol. IV. pp. 35-36. It may be similar to the kālavidhānapaddhati by Trivikramabhaṭṭa as mentioned in N.C.C. (ibid). The text contains 175 verses
