Description of manuscript content:
The text explains that in essence, human nature has seven doors called palawangan hanyir which are guarded by Prabu Husuniah. Also, each opening of the human boy, the mouth, nose, eyes, sexual organs and anus are the doors through which evil beings may enter. People have to guard these openings to be spared from enacting sinful acts. Pangeran Madrais wrote this teaching because he wanted to obey his stepfather, Ki Sastrawardana, whose struggle was very long.
