About this Manuscript

This is a Buddhist ritual text Lakṣacaityayākathā, Lakṣa means Lakh and caityas means stupas, It describes creation of a hundred thousand miniature stupas. Such acts are common themes in Buddhist traditions, particularly in Mahāyāna Buddhism, where the bodhisattva path emphasizes the generation of positive karma (merit) and wisdom for the benefit of all beings. The manuscript is very damaged, some leaves are broken, for highlighting used red ink, folio 7 and 8 are missing so the manuscript is incomplete.
