Summary:

Work of praise (stava) and devotion meant to be recited, but drawing on broad philosophical themes and attributed to the Hindu philosopher Śaṅkarācārya, but likely written by a follower of Advaita. The end of the Narasiṃhakavaca is found at the beginning of the manuscript (f. 1r), suggesting that this stava was once part of a larger manuscript.
