Manuscript Features

These two texts of this MS seem to be copied in a different hand. Thus, they are not listed as a MTM in the PTL.

This MTM contains the following text:

1. Pañcakrośamāhātmya; extracted from the Brahmavaivartapurāṇa

2. Pañcakrośīmāhātmya

Fol. 2 of the first text is missing.

On the front cover-leaf is written:

yaṃ praśaṃsanti baṃdhakyo yaṃ praśaṃsaṃti cāraṇāḥ yaṃ praśaṃsaṃti kuṭalāḥ <ref>probably for kulaṭāḥ</ref> sa puruṣaḥ puruṣādhamaḥ || yaṃ praśaṃsaṃti rājānaḥ yaṃ praśaṃsaṃti brāhmaṇāḥ yaṃ praśaṃsaṃti dīnārttāḥ sa puruṣaḥ puruṣottamaḥ ||
