Summary

Manual including rules and laws (dharma) for rites and observances (vratas) in a celebration and praise of the Hindu elephant-headed deity Gaṇeśa that occurs during each lunar month to help avoid trouble and pain. The manuscript was likely part of a larger compendium of observances (vratas) called the Vratārka which itself is likely drawn from the Skandapurāṇa (f. 8v).
