The work is more of the nature of a philosophical treatise than a ritualistic hand-book. From the end of chapter III onwards it is in the form of a dialogue between a disciple and a preceptor. The name of the work is definitely given as Ātmarahasya in the colophons of the commentary described below. The name of the compiler though not explicitly given elsewhere appears, from the concluding verse, to be Śrīnātha. The MS is full of explanatory marginal notes. Beginning :
