It deals with the details of initiation with special reference to Kramadīkņā. It quotes from and refers to
many Tantra works, such as, Brhattantraraja (Fol. 1), Sāradā (3A), Somaśambhu (4A), Tantrasāra (4B, 6B, 12A), Vişnuyāmala (11A), Prapañcasāra (19A), Mahānirvāņatantra (18A, 20B, 21A, 21B, 23A), Dipika (22A, 22B, 23B) etc. The work seems to come to an end in Fol. 37B, the remaining portion containing mantras of various deities. There is, however, no colophon in the MS. Beginning :
नत्वा श्रीकालिकानन्दं परमानन्दनिर्भरम् ।
तस्य शिष्यो जगन्नाथः क्रमदीक्षा वितन्वते ॥ तत्रादौ कमनिरूपणम् । रहत्तन्त्रराजे ।
आदौ च कालिकामन्त्र तदन्ते तारिणीमर्नु । ग्रहीयात् सुन्दरौमन्त्र क्रमदीक्षा प्रकीर्तिता ॥ पुनस्तत्रैव ।
यादौ च तारिणौमन्त्रं तदन्ते कालिकामर्नु । ग्रहीयात् सुन्दरीमन्त्र क्रमदीक्षा प्रकीर्तिता ॥
