The content of the manuscript deals with the concept of bringing back the khons (souls). According to Ahom belief there are more than one khon in anything around us and any kind of suffering or disaster is due to the escape of any of the khon if it scared or angry. This is mostly recited for the spirit of the country after wars or any kind of natural disaster.
