摘要：
The paper presents the unique Tibetan scroll from 13th to 14th century containing a collection of texts on the cults of Mahākāla, Vişņu Narasiṅha and Vajrapāni and the Eight Nāga Kings. The scroll, numbered Dx-178, is kept at the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the Russian Academy of Sciences and was presumably brought to St Petersburg by Colonel P. Kozlov from Khara-Khoto. Though a variety of genres is represented in this manuscript there prevail descriptions of fierce rituals aimed at killing or causing madness. Mahākāla, in two forms such as the Six-Handed Wisdom Protector and the Four-Handed Raven-Faced Karma Protector, and Vişņu Narasińha, of whose cult in Tibet nothing was known so far, can be used for this purpose, according to the scroll. The paper contains the list of these texts and their brief description, two of them, fully transliterated and translated into English, are supplied in the appendix. The paper presents also some remarks on the meaning of this kind of literature and necessity of its research.
