Description of manuscript content:

The fourth fascicle of Cundasukarika Sutta was written in Lao language as description. The content describes when Matari Devaputta took Dhammaki Bandit to Tavatimsa heaven, then Indra invited Dhammika Bandit to stay in the heaven. But Dhammika did not want to live there because he wanted to collect merit. Then he descended the human world.

Colophon:

Folio 11 on the verso side: The writing of this manuscript was finished in the evening (between 19.30-21.00 o’clock). Chan Kaenchan from Ban Nadu is the scribe to support the Teachings of the Buddha. May I share the merit, please. The handwriting is not so beautiful.
