Miscellaneous Notes

This text contians the procedure for bhuvanotsava, one of thenine kinds of festivals celebrated in the temples, according to ajitāgama, 27th paṭala, IFI. Pubṇo. 24, p.312, śloka-5. The colophon under notice states that it forms part of the kāmikāgama though bhuvanotsava is not found in the printed kāmikāgama text. Folios are lost between 81-89. The beginning portion is also lost. Since the edges are broken there are many gaps
