About this Manuscript

A stotra text extracted from the Agnipurāṇa, dedicated to the planetary god Śani (Saturn). This text is composed in the form of a dialogue between Śiva and Umā, through which they reveal the story of King Daśaratha—how he faced various difficulties and obtained relief from all afflictions by chanting the Śani-stotra. The text was previously owned by Dājīkhaṃḍerāva Doṅgḍrībāla. The Colenda Digital Repository catalogue mentions that this person might have been connected with the village of Doṅḍrī in the Garhwal district of Uttarakhand; however, based on the name, it appears that he was a Marathi.
