Size. 10 in. by 44 in.
Extent. 29 10 20 folios; 13 lines to a page; 38 letters to a line.
Description. Country paper thin, rough and greyish; Jaina Devanagari characters with frequent rats; big, clear, legible, uniform and good hand-writing; borders ruled in two lines in black ink; red chalk and yellow pigment used; foll. numbered in the right-hand margin; foll. 1 to 10 missing; so the Ms. begins abruptly; several foll. more or less worm-eaten; condition on the whole tolerably good: there is an additional fol. in the beginning; it is numbered as 19; this side is for the sake of convenience here looked upon as fol. 192; on fol. 196 we have a portion of Upadeśamālā verses 67 to 78 (last few verses); on the other side of this fol. we have जीवस्थानकविचार and then a part of गुण; this seems to be continued on fol. 11; so it appears that the fol. preceding the 11th has been later on numbered as 19; formerly it may have been numbered as 10; on this understanding it is considered here as the first work embodied in this Ms.; the second is what is named as कर्मबन्धविचार.
