Summary

Manuscript used for study or contemplation and is a collection of commentaries (bhāṣya) on the Vedānta school of philosophy, which focuses on the implications statements made in the Upaniṣads. Includes the Brahmāmimāmsa by Vijñāna (f. xii verso), among others. Manuscript is incomplete; many folios were out of order; several folio numbers are duplicated due likely to scribal error, with many others being unclear; and 12 unnumbered folios have been arranged at the end of the manuscript (ff. i-xii).
