Source: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama Texts

Dvādaśakalāpūjā (द्वादशकलापूजा) refers to “that worship which is repeated twelve times a day”, as discussed in the sixth chapter of the Īśvarasaṃhitā (printed edition), a Pāñcarātra work in 8200 verses and 24 chapters dealing with topics such as routines of temple worship, major and minor festivals, temple-building and initiation.—Description of the chapter [pitṛsaṃvibhāga-ādi-śayanotsavānta-vidhi]: [...] The regular daily offerings are to be made either to the utsavabera-icon or to the balibera-icon—a portion of the liturgy here referred to as “nityotsava” (48-60). Then (picking up the narrative from where it left off in the preceding chapter, see adhy. V: 46, above, after śayana:) comes anuyāga (62-70). After this has been duly done, an octave of worship [aṣṭāṅgapūjā] is performed (71-75), which octave of worship should be repeated twelve times a day [dvādaśakalāpūjā] (76-109). [...]
