Gāyatrīpuraścaraṇa

A ritual text describes the processes of bhūśuddhi, bhūtaśuddhi, and antarmātṛkā and bahirmātṛkā prāṇapratiṣṭhā (f. 1b–4b). The manuscript also contains several mantras and paddhatis: Gāyatrī-tarpaṇa-hṛdaya-kavaca (f. 5a–8b); Gāyatrī-utkīlana-mantra (f. 9a–10a); Sañjīvinī-mantra (f. 10b–12a); Sañjīvinī-mantra-utkīlana (f. 12a–13b); Sarva-mantra-utkīlana and Sarva-śāpa-vimocana-stotra (this text forms part of the Śaiva–Vaiṣṇava–Śākta–Saura–Gāṇapatya mantra-saṃskāra of the Matsendra-saṃhitā, within the Śiva–Pārvatī saṃvāda of the Pañcarātra section of the Śivarahasya) (f. 13b–15b); Gāyatrī-hṛdaya (f. 15b–18a). From the marginal abbreviations, it appears that the concluding portion of the manuscript contains the Gāyatrī-puraścaraṇa text (f. 18b–27b), followed by the Mahāmṛtyuñjaya-stotra (f. 27b–28a), Pañcapraṇava-gāyatrī (f. 28a–28b), and Tripraṇava-krama (f. 28b–29a).
