Introduction
About this Manuscript
The work Dvādaśabhāvaphala deals with astrology and explains the benefits associated with various planets based on their positions in the birth chart. The birth chart is divided into twelve sections, each corresponding to specific planetary influences. Since planets continually change their positions, the manuscript discusses how these shifts affect an individual, detailing which planet in which location bestows particular benefits. Title is taken from colophon (f. 2b). The manuscript is written in 8–9 lines per leaf.; 2 leaves are foliated 1–2, upper left and lower right verso. Mistakes are blacked out; some corrections and additions in margins; significant syllables, words, or phrases highlighted in red throughout; vertical margins marked with double black line.
