Title in original script: ஆனந்த களிப்பு- 51
The manuscript is composed of a text of palm leaves numbered from 1 to 8; it is complete. The manuscript is in good condition, slightly affected by larvae and fungus.
The text, entiled Āṉanta kaḷippu- 51, is from Corūpāṉantar. Written in verses of kaṇṇi type, the text belongs to the form of the Tamil literature called cintu by which it is sung rhythmically with music. Āṉanta kaḷippu refers to a text sung with joy by cittarkaḷ. As it is revealed in the verse n°43, this text, comprising 51 verses (kaṇṇi), is a part of an original text composed of 100 kaṇṇi.
The text is a criticism of the work led by the cittarkaḷ. Rather to spend time and energy to prepare of medicines and to try to convert metals into gold, the text’s author recommends them to develop their knowledge on philosophy and wisdom in order to attain eternal happiness. The text ends with an information on the technique to breath in yoga practice (vāciyōkam) to attain wisdom and eternal bliss.
Size of the manuscript: 31,5cm x 3,8cm. The manuscript is composed of palm leaves numbered from 1 to 8. The manuscript is in good condition, slightly affected by larvae and fungus.
