Summary

Philosophical work on Advaita Vedānta about liberation while living in the body (jīvanmukti).

Notes

• Manuscript is likely the first 18 folios of Ms. Coll. 390, Item 1186, which begins on f. 19. While this manuscript has a smaller height than Item 1186, there are clear signs of manuscript repair and alteration and it may well have been cut at some point. The scribal hand looks to be the same and there are similar corrective marks in red throughout. The width of the manuscript, moreover, is the same as the beginning folios of 1186, which has folios of several different widths throughout. The line count of both manuscripts is 9-11 lines per leaf side. The paper quality is also the same or similar. These two manuscripts should likely be read together.
