Description of manuscript content:
The fourth fascicle of Nyot Dhamma (the peak of Dhamma) or Cundasukarika Sutta was written in Lao language as description. The content describes when Matari Devaputta took Dhammaki Bandit to Tavatimsa heaven, then Indra asked Dhammika Bandit to stay in the heaven. But Dhammika did not want to live there because he wanted to collect merit. Then he descended the human world.
