Description

A Buddhist ritual text on the adoration of the caityas and their benefits. "On 4a1, there is the word ``sucetana'' which is the name of the Bodhisattva who takes an important part in the Caitya-puṅgava, and thus we assume this Ms. is of the latter. After 15a1, the Ms. differs from that of Mitra's NBL, and on 15a2 there are words '' iti vīra-citya-kathā-saṃgrahaṃ samāpta'' which are not found in Mitra's. It seems that the Ms. turns, in the middle, to the other one." (Matsunami, 1965, p. 54).
