Antique Manuscript Review 126 : Antique Indian Sanskrit Manuscript ( 19th Century)





This is a very interesting type of manuscript which I purchased from India. It was written in Devanari script in black & red.
I dont have much information of this kind of manuscript and its writing tradition. I need to do more research on this manuscript and will update this entry later.

    I RAJNISH KHOSLA CALLED MANUSCRIPT MAN [REFER GOOGLE MANUSCRIPT MAN RAJNISH ], HAVE A MANY MANUSCRIPTS OF SUCH TYPE , AND HAVE OFFERED THE SAME TO VARIOUS RELIGIOUS PLACES OF HINDUS , MUSLIMS AND SIKHS , AS IN MY VIEW THE VERY HERITAGE SHOULD BE SAVED .USUALLY SUCH MANUSCRIPTS HAVE CONTENTS WITH THE NATURAL COLORS BEING FORMED WITH FLOWERS EXTRACTS .. IT IS A NICE COLLECTION BEING RELATED TO WORLD'S OLDEST LIVING CIVILIZATION .
