coming up to leaf 104. The old pagination then continues. Much of leaf 284 has been cancelled. 285 is the pagination of the last two leaves.
The 2nd chapter continues the pagination up to 165 and then a new pagination begins from 10 and ends in 60. Still the work is incomplete. Both the paper and the handwriting are the same.

Beginning :
सदनन्तचिदानन्दे जगती यत्र जायते। रजतादीव शुक्तयादौ तदेवाहं परा गतिः॥
सरस्वतीस्वामिमहासरस्वती सरस्वतिस्वामिमहासरस्वती। निःसायं सारस्वतसारिकार्घ सारस्वतः सारसतर्करत्न ॥ श्रीनारायणतीर्थश्रीपरमानन्दपादयोः। ब्रह्मानन्दयतिर्नत्वा तनोत्यद्वैतचन्द्रिकां ॥ सारस्वतसमुद्रे कश्चन्द्रिकायाः परं फलं ।
प्रासङ्गिकतया ध्वां+ ++रा भूतिरपि ध्रुषा ॥ Brahmananda's commentary on Advaitasiddhi is described in L. 1500 and I.0. Catal. Nos. 2395 and 2396 under the title of Laghucandrikā. But the beginning of the commentary at least is quite different in the present MS. Possibly Laghucandrikā is an abridgement of this.
