2. Note : Fragment with an attached paper stitched on the top. Fragment (A): seven lines, the beginning of tantric sādhana, are found on recto. Verso is blanc. Attached paper (B): almost complete text that the right bottom edge is torn off. Contains nine lines on recto and six lines on verso of a continuous, but incomplete text. The text is a criticism of the funeral rituals of “the bon religion” (bon chos). The description of the funeral bears comparison with passages on funerary rituals in the Old Tibetan Chronicle and Pt_1042.
