About this Manuscript

Sambhadrāvadānamālā is a Sanskrit collection of avadāna narratives illustrating the workings of karma, composed in campū style (a mixture of prose and verse). One of its stories belongs to the "gift-of-the-body" genre, as discussed by Reiko Ohnuma. The manuscript’s handwriting is messy and cluttered, making parts of the text difficult to read. Annotations by another hand appear throughout the manuscript.
