summary:
  en: A manuscript of Bhagavadgītā. The manuscript contains 18 Adhyāya. Bhagavadgītā is the 3rd part out of the 4 from the 6th Parva (chapter) of the epic Mahābhārata, that is Bhīṣmaparva. They are a total of 18 Parvas. It is more well known as a stand alone text than most other parts of the Mahābhārata because of it's attribution to Kṛiṣṇa and his teachings of Dharma. Because of the text being rich in philosophy it is considered to be like an Upaniṣada mostly by the Vaiṣṇava tradition. The text has elements of Yoga, Sāṃkhya and Vedānta school of Hindu philosophies present in it. The speakers of the verses are given as Dhṛtarāṣṭa, Sañjaya, Arjuna and Śrībhagavāna Uvāca. This Ms. lacks a bigining. From folios 17–102 colophons and some introductions of speakers are in brown and double daṇḍas are in brown or pink. Some marginal additions in brown. Mistakes are covered over with yellow throughout. Orange powder rubbed in over numbers through folio 16, over final colophon, and over most of the introductions of speakers. Some of the lettering is a bit blotchy. It is written in 7–9 lines per leaf.
