The volunteers responded with a file, but it was not the tidy, searchable PDF Rohit expected. It was a scanned bundle of brittle pages, annotated in several hands, margin notes in Devanagari and English, a translator’s cautious interjections. The cover page read: "Bhavishya Purana — partial translation, 1894 — copyist: K.R. Singh." Someone had typed a note: "Do not circulate. For research and preservation only."
