Miscellaneous Notes
This text seems to be a manual for śaiva priest on dīkṣā. Though this text begins with the same verse, which occurs at the beginning of the section " dīkṣāvidhi", of kriyākramadyotikā of aghoraśivācārya, also the colophon attributes this text to the same text; but the text seems not exactly the same of kriyākramadyotikā. There is an extra folio at the beginning which records title of the text and few more lines : " śubhamastu । avighnamasut । śaiva । idaṃ dīkṣāpustakaṃ । bhairavaguroḥ ।" After this text fol. 14 - 15 are blank and fol.16, which seems different from other folios, records certain text, consists of 4 verses, pertaining to piṇḍadāna
