Additional script information: Kuṭākṣara is a vertical syllabogram based on Newari scripts, mostly used to write cryptic formulae for esoteric practice. Kuṭākṣara is unique to Nepal, although as Vījamantra they were familiar to Śaiva and Śākta scholars in India. The project team is not aware of the existence of such script outside, except disseminated from Nepal to east Asia, China and Japan.
