Miscellaneous Notes

The same as Cat. no. 386.56 for the beginning. This text briefly gives the procedure for initiation. It also discusses the suitable place and time. Passages from āgama-s such as the ajita, the makuṭa, the kāmika, the suprabheda etc . are cited. The part discussing the proper place for initiation is said to be taken from the ajitāgama; but it is not found in the IFP.T.Mss. of this āgama
