Dear list members, Two new searchable etexts from the collaborative project between the Muktabodha Indological Research Institute and the French Institute of Pondicherry have been added to the Muktabodha Digital Library. The texts and descriptions by Deviprasad Mishra are:
1. RE 32406 Bṛhattālavidhi. This bundle primarily explores the various sections from *Śrīmadaghōraśivācāryar’s Kriyākramadyōtikā*, particularly focused on ritual related to *utsavapūjāvidhi* such as *b**ṛ**hatt**ā**lam, navasandhi,* *māsotsavam, pak**ṣ**o**tsavam *and *ṛ**k**ṣ**o**tsavam*. It also contains an extensive portion of the *prāyaścittaviddhi* from * Kriyākramadyōtikā*. Towards the end, the manuscript presents some incomplete sections pertaining to the *śivali**ṅ**gapa**ñ**c**ā**sanap**ū* *j**ā*. 2. RE 47827 - *J**ñānapūjāvidhi**ḥ.* This paper manuscript bundle contains *jñānapūjāvidhi**ḥ* from the *vātulāgama*. It is one of the 28 *Mūlāgamas* of the Śaiva tradition. This p*a**ṭ**ala* provides a detailed, step-by-step guide on performing the *J**ñānapūjā* ritual, beginning from the daily morning practices. It includes instructions for *nityakarma, prā**ṇ**ā**y* *ā**mam, tarpa**ṇ**am, **ś**iv**ā**layadar**ś**anam, j**ñā**nap**ū**j**ā**, bh**ū**ta**ś**uddhi**ḥ**, antary**ā**gam, arcan**ā**di* and concludes with *parā**ṅ**mukh**ā**rghyam*. The bundle contains 21 pages and there are 9 lines in each page. The size of this bundle is 8 cm / 8 cm. This is a manuscript which offers valuable insight into the daily spiritual routines and purification rituals prescribed by the *Vātulāgama*, reflecting the significance of inner and outer worship in the Siddhānta Śaiva tradition. Thank you, Harry Spier
