One of the donees is described as a \*salākāchārya\*, a man who answers questions by putting a \*salāka\* or stick into a book (a palm-leaf book) at random and so finding a suitable passage. There are elaborate rules for the system, as for most Hindu mysteries. - [Previous: c11.12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.rice-1909.c11.12) - [Next: c11.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.rice-1909.c11.14) - [Up: c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.rice-1909.c11) ## Cites (1) - [Epigraphia Carnatica](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.corpora.ec) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.rice-1909.c11.13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.rice-1909.c11.13) · Pramāṇa
