Introduction
About this Manuscript
Vicitrakarṇikāvadāna is a collection of 32 stories, mostly derived from the Avadānaśataka and others pertaining to the type of Vratāvadāna. (Literal History of Sanskrit Buddhism, Nariman, p. 61) Fols. 30–36 are missing. Small note on fol 56 in Devanāgarī below the main text. Fol. 160a onward writing is shoddy and lighter compared to the rest of the mss. Last folio is an addition written in another hand. Fol. 136 contains the number 1952 in the bottom by a secondary hand in black, but what dating system is it refering to is unclear.
