Aparokṣānubhūti

This is an Advaita Vedānta text, traditionally ascribed to Śaṅkarācārya. This manuscript contains the complete text with 144 verses. Its purpose is stated in the first verse: to attain mokṣa (liberation) through understanding the teachings presented in the text. The work also explores the nature of ātman (the self) and Brahman (the Universal Creation), with particular emphasis on the concept of aparokṣānubhūti (self-realization). This work is similar to Item 1131; however, Item 1131 contains eight additional verses at the end. This Ms. is written in 12–17 lines per folio. Title present in colophon (f. 6b). Mistakes are covered with yellow or blacked out. Some corrections and additions in the margins.
