What is drawn on these pages

Readings of the illustrated pages, in the tradition's own vocabulary. Described by a vision pass; the quoted captions are transcribed from the page itself.

• Folio 52 · diagram — A printed section-divider (not a hand-drawn diagram): a near-blank leaf carrying one line of modern Thai type centred on it — ยันต์หนีบ เข้าแท่งเมตตามหานิยม — opening the chapter on the yant nip (pinch/press) class of charms in the metta-mahaniyom (loving-kindness, great-popularity) family. Faint show-through of number-grid yant from adjacent leaves ghosts the margins. It marks where the manual turns to the mahaniyom charms worked to draw affection and favour. see the page →
