[Notes on an Upaniṣad commentary] -somewhat elaborate colophon, with mention of the commentaries found in the bundle. The mention of 'likhitāni śaṅkarena' could indicate a scribe called Śaṅkara, but it might also simply mean that these commentaries are "written by Śaṅkara" (images 0333-0358). Only the texts of Taittirīyopaniṣadbhāṣyavārttika, Taittirīyopaniṣadvivaraṇa, and Kāṭhakopaniṣadbhāṣya are complete. The manuscript is damaged.
