Description of manuscript content:
The first eight folios were written in Pali language using for chanting. The text might continue from the number of DS0011_00224. The last folios were written in Lao language as the explanation. The text on folio eighth on the verso side mentions Caturārakkhā (four protective meditations). The meditators should learn by heart Buddhānussati (recognition of the Buddha) and recite like the chanting. This is the great merit in result.
