The purjī of which this is a copy was issued by C-in-C General Deva Samsera Jaṅga Rāṇā Bahādura and addresses Candra Bahādura Sāha, the secretary (kharidāra) of the Guṭhī Kharca Aḍḍā under [Śrī 3 Sarkāra].1
It quotes a petition made by Kharidāra Ratna[māna] Si and MukhiyāBhaktamāna Josi from the Guṭhī Bandobasta Aḍḍā under Śrī 3 Sarkara to issue a purjī in the name of the chief officer of the [Guṭhī] Kharca Aḍḍā. This petition refers 1) to the fact that in order to perform the customary worship of Baḍādasaĩ at the site of the [family deity]2 in the Pāñcāyana temple that was erected by [Śrī 3 Mahārāja],3 the rituals were traditionally being performed with expenses met by the Śrī Jaṅgānandaprakāśeśvara Sadābarta Guṭhī and 2) to the existence of directive (savāla) no. 12 to their office (i.e. the Guṭhī Bandobasta Aḍḍā) obliging them to have sanadas issued whenever tasks came up for which sanadapurjīs were called for as authorization because no deeds of gift (dānapatra), stone deeds (śilapatra) or copperplate deeds (tāmāpatra) existed. The petition further determined that the purjī should order the chief of the Guṭhī Kharca Aḍḍā to release the necessary funds on the basis of the costs incurred in the year 1953 and as projected in the details (tapasila) appended, namely 26.2.0.1 mohararūpaiyā̃s in cash and 1 pāthī, 1 mānā in kind. In case the costs exceed the previous outlay, a reimbursement is promised on the basis of the receipts signed by a witness and by the traders involved in the transactions.
In its concluding lines, the sanadapurjī endorses this petition and orders the addressee to act accordingly.
Details:
The overall cash sum (nagada) of 26.2.0.1 morus is broken down into 7.2.0.1 morus for pūjā material and 19 morus for sacrificial animals, both being itemized more specifically.4 The two items in the provisions in kind (jinsī) are husked and unhusked rice.
The document is dated Wednesday, the 11th of the dark fortnight of Āśvina of VS 1954 (1897 CE).
The document, relating to provisions for rituals performed during the autumnal Dasaĩ festival at the Pāñcāyana temple at Thāpāthalī, is part of a series of similar documents (see K_0476_0060, K_0636_0036, K_0379_0073, K_0625_0006, K_0614_0029). It follows the earlier document issued in VS 1951 (K_0379_0073) more or less verbatim. For more on the temple, its rituals and their administration, see the Commentaries to K_0476_0060 and K_0636_0036.
