Manuscript Summary: | Manuscript Summary This is a Panjabi adaptation of the 10th book of the Bhāgavatapurāṇa, in Punjabi/Braj language, in Gurmukhī script. It is a collection of stories of the life of the god Kṛṣṇa, written in verse (caupaī, kabitā, soraṭhā
and others). Contrary to the Sanskrit version, the text has no clear
chapter structures and has a continuous numeration (880 verses). It is
richly illustrated with scenes from the life of the god Kṛṣṇa (more than
200 miniatures), and it is a free verse rendering of the ancient
Sanskrit text that was written in ślokas (shlokas), which was extremely popular in India. |
