Comparative goddess identities, healing claims and devotional interpretations are attributed, not established universal or clinical facts. Full source content is linked, not reproduced.
This is a separate legal/administrative act with its own Documenta Nepalica edition ID, not a duplicate merely for naming the same temple, ruler or musician. VS dates are retained as VS, not interpreted as CE; the date label distinguishes the original document, later copy and modern scholarly edition/revision where supplied.
