Miscellaneous Notes

This text deals with mudrā and its varities and forms part of the svacchandatantra which is prevalent particularly in Kashmir (vide. S.C.Benerjī, History of Tantra Literature, pp. 398-400). This corresponds to ch. 14 of the svacchandatatnra, IFP.T.1032, pp.349-352 and the printed edition, paṭala XIV, vol. IV, Sanskrit Gian Samsthan, 1986
