Introduction
About this Manuscript
This codex describes the rituals of daily life. These rituals are called Saṃskāras. Jātakarma is the first ritual, performed when the child enters the family. Upanayana is another ritual, marking the start of the child's education. In Indian tradition, this ritual is considered the rebirth of a child. There is no pagination throughout the manuscript. The most interesting part is the inclusion of several seed syllables (Bījamantras). The last folio features various diagrams and charts.
