Summary

Text outlines the observances (vrata), rites and laws (dharma) to be performed during the "extra month" (adhimāsa) referred to as Malamāsa (impure month), an intercalary month often associated with misfortune and considered inauspicious. Performing these rites and observances is thought to alleviate such negative associations.
