Aparokṣānubhūti

This is an Advaita Vedānta text, traditionally ascribed to Śaṅkarācārya. This manuscript contains 44 verses. Its purpose is stated in the first verse: to attain mokṣa (liberation) through understanding the teachings presented in the text. The text also explores the nature of ātman (the self) and Brahman (the Universal Creation), with particular emphasis on the concept of aparokṣa-anubhūti (self-realisation). This work is the same as Item 1139, but the title is slightly different, as it has alternative titles. This Ms. is written in 13–14 lines per folio. There are double red vertical margins on each side of the folio. Mistakes are covered with yellow or blacked out. Some corrections and additions in the margins. Scribe Govinda Devadhara present in (f. 4b).
