Miscellaneous Notes

This text contains the mantra of bagalāmukhī. It has in the form of an interlocution between bhairava and devī. It seems to be incomplete. Some Tamil words are mixed in the text. At the end there are two verses enumerating the bhairava-s and the saptamātṛ-s

Manuscript Beginning

Manuscript Ending

yāvat prajvālayed dīpaṃ tāvad divyaṃ praśāmyati। asitāṅgo ruruścaṇḍaḥ। krodha unmattabhairavaḥ। kapālī bhīṣaṇaścaiva saṃhāraścāṣṭabhairavaḥ। brāhmī māheśvarī cai[va] kaumārī vaiṣṇavī tathā। vārāhī ca tathendrāṇī cāmuṇḍī saptamātaraḥ। māhālakṣmyā samāyuktamātra nyaset kramāt।
