Miscellaneous Notes

This text contains the adhvaprakaraṇa of the vidyāpāda of the mṛgendra. It is also called nārasiṃha, one of the upāgama-s of the kāmikāgama. The 6 paths (adhvan) are mantra, varṇa, pada, tattva, kalā and bhuvana. The text abruptly ends with the 87th verse according to the printed text (Devakottai edn., 1928)
