Description

The manuscript has a pinkish red leather cover. However the manuscript is heavily damaged the folios have been hacked off from the side. Moreover it also lacks a beginning and an ending. Folios from image 1–7 have text written in horizontally like in a landscape format with respect to the folios but folios from image 8–14 have been written in a way resembling the folios of a book or a notebook for no particular reason it seems, perhaps to save folios. The significant text is rubbed with orange powder for highlighting. looking at the intermediate colophons indicate the name of the text is Daśāphala a Jyotiṣa text. It deals with life events of a human based on the moon's nakśatra at time of birth and the strength of Graha-s (celestial bodies) which are believed to influence positive and negative results. Daśā-s of different Graha-s are mentioned in the intermediate colophons like Candra and Budha etc.
