About this Manuscript

It is a commentary on Raghunātha Śiromaṇi’s Tattvacintāmaṇidīdhiti, which itself is a commentary on the Anumānakhaṇḍa section of Gangeśa Upādhyāya’s Tattvacintāmaṇi—a treatise on logic from the Navya-Nyāya school of philosophy, particularly focused on the topic of inference (anumāna). This Ms. is written in 10–12 lines per folio. Title present in the upper margin of (f. 1a). Back page also contains title. Mistakes are blacked out. Some corrections and additions in the margins. Significant syllables and words rubbed with orange powder for highlghting.
