The work has been named as Jātakakarmapaddhati, because this was perhaps the first convenient name that occurred to the mss. collectors. It deals with Santi and Saṁskära. It starts with rajodarsana, its effects when it occurs on particular tithis, nakșatras, lagnas and yogas.
Here, Sridhariya, Kasyapa, Smrtiratna, Garga, Daivajriamanohara and Nșsimha are quoted; then rajasvalāśuddhiprakāra according to Smrtyarthasāra, which is followed by navagrahahoma, etc. for rajodarsanasānti. On fol. 49%, the colophon reads इति कौस्तुभे दुष्टरजोदर्शनशांतिः। अयं च शौनकोक्तप्रकारो बचानां । अन्येषां प्रकारांतरं मदनरस्ने। ऋषिपुत्रसंहितायां । This is followed by garbhadhāna, orddhiståddha and
simantonnayana. Age.-Appears to be old. Author.- Anonymous. Begins.-fol.24.

पौषे तु पुंश्चली नारी माघे पुत्रसुखान्विता ॥ etc. Ends.-fol.78.
