Description of manuscript content:

The text of dedication of merit and aspiration is used to pray with pouring water. The text is first in Pali and followed by Lao as translation. The content of the first chapter tells the dedication of merit to support father, mother, relatives, friends, children, grandchildren, teachers, disciples, precepters, ministers, kings, and all creatures who have been died and suffering. If any creatures have been in a suffering state, may they all be free from the suffering state and stay in the happy state.
