PREFACE.

Though dealing with only four taluq9, no volume has involve 1 more labour than the present,
owing chiefly to the numerous and often elaborate reeords of the Shikarpur taluq. The inscriptions
cover the entire period of the Christian era from the 2nd century, and contain fresh Information of
the highest importance on a great variety of subjects.

In the first place, the alleged Janamejaya grants have been located as to their origin, and their
probable period determined. But the oldest genuine inscriptions are those of Satakarnni and a
Kadamba king on the Malavalli pillar (Sk 263,J26^), inscribed in Cave charactera and expressed
in Prakrit language. Next to the Edicts of Asoka discovered by me, these are the most ancient in
the Mysore State. Of the origin of the Kadambas we have a romantic but apparently realistic

account in the highly interesting Talagunda pillar inscription (Sk 176), one of the most learned and
valuable in the country. The tradttional account is also found in Sk 117, but Sk 236 gives an
entirely different version from either, and one which seems largely mythical. The dearth of
Brahmans in the South and the consequent foundation of the great Sthanagundur agrahara by
Mukkanna Kadamba are related in Sk 186,
With regard to the Gangas, there are very long and detailed accounts of their origin, tracing
them from the North, and ascribing their acquisition of Gangavadi, the raain part of the Mysore
country, to the aid they received from the Jaina guru Simhanandi. This part of the narra tive seems
entitled to credit, and the derivation of the family name from the Ganges is probably correct*
Sorae farther remarks on the subject will be found in the Introduction.

The Chajukya and Kalachurya inscriptions are elaborate compositione, mostly connected with

BalJigave, the flourishing capital of the Banavasi province. The description of the Kodiya jnatha and
of the acharyas at the head of it convey an exalted idea of the leaming and the charities of those

days. The account of Lakulisvara in Sk 126 is of the first importance. Sk 96 shows that the
poet Magha was well known io 1179. Historically, Sk 136' is full of information, relating the
tragic end o f SomeSvara I, who drowned himself In the Tungalfihadra, and the defeat of a Chola in-
vasion by his son, Somesvara II, who, for the protection of his dominions on the south, formed three
buffer provinces extending from coa9t to coast, the middle one of which is called Nojamba-Sindavadi.

The Naga families of the Sendrakas and the Sindas are of special interest. The Pandyas of
Uchchangi will be found more fully dealt with in the Chitaldroog volume.

Of the Hoysala inscriptions, Sk 225 asserts that the Kuntala country was at first ruled

by the Nandas and the Mauryyas. Hl 8 gives the legend of the formation of the Kuruva island in
the Tungabbadra, a place referred to in connection with the Ramesvara tirtha in Rashtrakuta plates
cf the 8th century. Sh 68 inlorms us of the return from Delhi of the king’s son, who had been
taken there by the Turukas, no doubt as a hestage.

Among the Vijayanagar inscriptions, Sk 281 is remarkable for being dated in the S'atavahana
saka, and contains details of spccial interest and importance regarding Madhava, the great minister
who was instrumental in founding the Vijayanagar empire.

The Arabie and Persian inscription of the Bijap ur Sultans at the Masur Madak tank (Sk 234)
is deserving of notice. Also the inscriptions (Ci 43 and 44) Ba savapattana
of their governor at .

The illustrations have been prepared by Namassivayam Pillai of my office. But a separate
volume would alone do justice to the architectural remains of Bajgami, Bandalike and other places
of great repute in former times.

It is necessary to begin with the alleged grants on copper plates by the emperor Janamejaya,
their professed date being about 3102 B.C., the commencement of the Kali-yuga, when Janamejaya
is said to have reigned.

The best known are the Gauj agrahara plates (Sk. 45), which were brought to light at the
beginning of the last century by Colonei Colin Mackenzie, who made the Survey of Mysore, and are
said to be mentioned in 1746 in a sanad by Chennamaji, queen of Bednur. They are engraved in

an old form of Nandi Naga ri characters 1 and expressed in the Sanskrit language, except for certain
Kannada forms in describing the donees. Similar to tliese are the Kuppagadde plates (No. 183,

Sor ab taluq, Vol. VII I). In the present volume the Begur grant (Sk. 12) is similar, but no plates

are forthcoming : there is only a copy on paper . Sk. 86 is another of these grants, since dis-

covered, at Siralkoppa, but the characters appear .modern. From Ak. 110 (Vol. VI) we also
learn that the Brahmans of Kodanganur claim
have had a Janamejaya grant, but that the Hoy-to

sala king Vishnuvarddhana offered thom a rauch better village and removed them to Kellangere.
This was apparently in 1 142, which therefo re seems to furnish some guide towards the period to

which we can assign these grants. Ia 1879 I published a grant (Ind. Ant. VIII, 89) in precisely
similar chmacters and terms, but dated S'aka 366 (A.D. 444, 2 and attributed to V ira- N ona mba of
the Chalukya faraily, which evidently affoided a probable clue to their actual date. For this was a
name of Jayasimha 3
,
the Chajukya king Vikramaditya’s youuger brother, who was entrusted with the
governineut ot the Bauavase province and held it fronx about 1076 to 1082. With him therefore I
was disposed to associate these grants, and published in the sarne place parallel versions of them to
Show their substantial identity. 4 It is of course an easy process to scout them as palpable forgeries
or spurious, and cast them aside as unwortby of serious attention. But a little consideratiun ot the
details will suffice to show that they are not forgeries [in the sense of being records of grants that
were never made, for most of the villages can stili be identified. The grants themselves therefore
were probably genuine, but owing perhaps to some insecurity or instability in the authority rnaking

them, they were attributed to a period safely too far removed for criticism. The figures of the S’a ka

year are wrong, but there is no forgery about Vira-Nonamba’s grant, and it expressly says that it
was written by the highly accomplished (ati-hiiala) Odvachari. This and the Begur and Knppffgaddc
plates are sigaed Ari-rdya-mastalca-tala-prahari. Now we find that the title Vira-tala-prahari was
giyen by Ahavamalla, father of Vira-Nolamba, to the Huliyera chi ef Sthira-gambhira, for the bold
manner in which he rescued Nolatnba’s queen from her captors ;
and the t itle G anda-tala-pra^d ri to

the N irggunda c hief, for a feat performed at Kalyaua, the capital. 5 These coincidences are significant.

The four Janamejaya grant3 above named (including here, for convenience of comparison, Kuppa-
gadde) are said to have been made by the emperor Janamejaya, son of the emperor Parikshit of the
Pandava-kula, lord of Hastinapura, with tities usually applied to the Cbajukyas. He made the

grants while on an expedition to the South, in the presence of the god Harihara, at the confiuence

of the Tuugabhadra and Haridra, on the occasion of his performing the sarppa-yaqa or serpent

sacrifice. The actual moraent of the grant is thus expressed in each,—


(Begur) — sarppa-yfiga-aramfjha-samae
( Kuppag ) — sarppa-y aga-pfirnnahuti-samae
(Gauj)—sarppa-yaga-purnnahuti-tad-anga-samae

Janamejaya was the son of Parikshit, who was the grandson of Ariuna, the third of the five Panda
Parikshit died from the bite of a serpent, 6 in revenge for which Janamejaya performed
brothers.
a great sacrifice of serpents. These so-called serpents were no doubt a Naga race. Local tradition
describes this serpent sacrifice as taking place at Hire Mugulur in Kadur District, where the yupa-

stambha or sacrificial post used on the occasion is stili shown. The connection of the Pandavas with
Mysore is asserted in iuscription Sk. 126, which says that after performing the Rajasuya sacrifice

Bat these traditions are of no help towards deterraining the period of our present granis .Vor

do the data given in the grants themselves suffice to ciear up the matter. It has been proposed to
derire the year from the phrase katcikmm utkalitam which immediately precedes the nionth and day,

—just in ihe place where the year shnuld be given if mentioned, —by applying the Jcatapayadi system
to the first word, 1 resulting in 1115 (S'aka) expired or 1193 A.D ., and for many reasons tb -s date
seems not to be far wrong. The day is given as Monday, the third of the dark fortnight of Cbaitra,

at the time of sankranti and vyati-pata. To this Gauj adds a partial ecli re ot the sun. From data
which Colebrooke furnished to the Astronomerftoyal, Sir G. B. Airy, the latter calculated that the
solar eclipse mentioned occurred on Sunday, the 7 th of Apri!.1521 2 But he was evidently not in-
formed of Monday being the week day, as it is broken off in the Gau) mscription, being at the edge of
the piate. Hence this estimate, though accepted at the time on such h gh authority, canuot be
relied on. We may safely take as a guide the period of Vira-Nonamb a, the Chalukya prince Jaya-
simha, which is known, the end of the llth cen tury ;
and assuming that his grant was the model for
the others (to which the similar terms and signatures baar witness), we have to allot these to some
king suggestive of the Pandavas and connected with Harihara. These requirements are met by the
Pandya kings of Uchchaugi, of whose inscriptions there are several ai Harihara. From Sk- 99 it

appear» that early in the 1 2th century they ivere govern ing Konka na, but later on were governors of
the Nolambava di Thirty-two Thousand and the S antajige Thousand (Oi. 61, 39).

his clairning protection. The Lin gayit r evival in the time of the Kalachurya king Bijjala had
spread with aWrmng rapidity throughout the Kannada-speakiug countries, superseding the Jains
and oasting the B rahmans from their pre-eminence. The times were thus fnll of great political and
r eligions convulsi ons, which might well furnish ground for the apprehension that led to the assign-
ment of a fabulous antiqu ity to these agrahara grants, their real period being the 12th century.

In tbe Begdr g rant, 12 villages, including Begur and its hamlets, are given to 1300 Brahmans
of Begur, 3 situated in the northern Edenad Seventy

Ayodhya
There is another dubious grant of professedly great antiqui ty to be noticed before we can
proceed to the examination undoubted Sh. 86» on copper plates at Kudalur,
oi inscriptions, This is

claiming to be a grant made by tlie emperor Bharmmangada, son of the emperor Rukmangada and
grandson i f the emperor Hema. These rulers are described as of the Surya-kula or Solar race, lords
of Ayodhja. pura (Oudh), and having a flag bearing the crest of a golden peacock. The plafes are

said to ha\e leen 2 ground about 50 are 60 years ago. They are
discovertd when digging in the

engraved i n pe.fjctly preserved Nagari characters, and expressed in a curious mixture of Sanskrit
and Ma hratti, ( f vv hieh the latter part is to us unintelligible. The grant, apparently some land to a

Brahman, was made by the emperor when on an expedition to the South, in the year Ananda.

Rukmangada is mentioned in the Narada Purana, and he is there said to have had a will-born
daughter named Mohini, who having extracted from him a promise to do for her whatever she may
desire, calls upon him either to violate the rule of fasting on the eleventh day of the fortniglit, a day
sacred to Vishnu, or to put his son to death ;
and he kills his son as the lesser sin of the two.
Professor Wilson, from whose Preface to the Vishnu Purana this is extracted (p. 52), gives reasons
for setting it down as possibly a compilation of the 16th or 17 th century. The grant no doubfc
refers to this legend in saying that the king was purified by the burden (or striet perfor mance) of
the §Teadas'i (or eleventh day) fast. 1 The peacock crest, so far as my knowledge goes, belongs to
Burrna. The Kadambas derive their origin from Mayuravarmma, whose name is accounted for by a
story about a peacock ,
but this was not their crest. The present grant appears to be a fabrication,
and the Mahratti in it shows it to be quito modern. I have conjecturally put it under date 1750,
when the Mahrattas were predominant in that part of Mysore.

According to tradition Rukmangada was the king of Sakkarepattana (Kadur District), and made
the Ayyankere lake, for the stabili ty of which Honbilla (stili worshipped at Sakkarepattana) was
sacrificed.

S'atavahanas

The Satakarnni inscription on a stone pillar at Malavalli (Sk« 263) isof special interest, being,
next to the Edicts of Asoka discovered by me in Molakalmuru taluq in 1892, the oldest that has
been found in Mysore. Satakarnni belongs to the S’atavahana dynasty of kings, a name since

capital appears to have been at D hanakataka ia the east (Dharanikotta on the Krishna, ia Guntur
taluq), but their chief city in the west was Paithan on the Godavari. Satakarnni, though perhaps
originally the nanie of one person, was an hereditary designation, borne by several kings who were
distingaished frora one another by a matronymic ,
as Gotamiputra Satakarnni, Vasithiputra Sata-
karnni and se on. KharaveWs inseri ptira i in Kalinga shows a Satakarnni ruling there in the 2nd

Our present inscription is engraved in what may be called Cave characters, on the shaft of a six
sided pillar, of an indurated dark stnne, about 6 feet in height. The lines run lengthwise from
bottora to top along each face, which is about G inches wide. There are eight lines of inscription, of

which three form the Satakarnni inscription, and the reraaining five the Kadamba inscription next
to be noticed. The third and sixth sides contain two lines each, and the other sides only one. The
third side, where the first inscription ends and the second begins, is very much worn, and must have
been the side on the south-west, exposed to the monsoon. The pillar was found lying neglected on
the ground in front of the village teraple, and the writing is so small and superficial that it might
easily escape notice. Ali trace of base and capital have disappeared, but a sort of bracket for a
light has been fixed on to the lower end, and the stone has probably been erected as a dipa-niala
(upside down) on festival occasions.

The Satakarnni of this and the Banavasi inscription is described as a Haritiputra and of the
Vi nhnkaddachutu (or Vinhukaddavutu or Vinhukadadutu) family. He is also in this one said to be
of the Manavya-gotr a, and is styled th e raja of Vaijayan ti -pura or Banava si. After the word Siddham »
and an ascription of victory to the adorable Mattapatti go d, he issues his command to the maTidvala -

or c hief Revenue Comrais sioner, informing him that the village of Sahalatavi has
been granted, free of all imposts, to Kondamana, son of Takinchi, as a Brahraan endowment, for
the enjoyment of the Mattapatti god. Mattapatti is evidently the original form of Malavalli, the
present narae of the village. There is no trace now of any temple or god of antiquity, only a
common lihga in a most ordinary little mud-walled village shrine. Another temple at the village,

Kadambas
The earliest Kadamba 2
grant ia this volurae is Sk, 264:, which is on the Mal_ava]|ij)^)ar above
noticed, and follows after the Satakarnni inscriptio» on it, being engraved in the same Cave char-
acters and expressed m the same Prakrit laurago. After the word Sulllvim, and an ascription of
victory to the adorable Muttapatfci god, as in theprevious inseription, — the dharmma-niaharajadhiraja
of Vaijayanti (or Banavasi), versed in the yiews he has adopted on the sacred writings, 1
raja of

the Kadambas, S'iva[khada]varmrna (that is, S'ivaskandavarmma), of the Manavya-gotra, a


Haritiputra, and Vaijayanti -pati, states that the ovvnership of the estate formerly said to be given

(that is, in the preceding inseription) having bien abandoned, he grauts it a second time, and
bestows upou Siri-Nagadatta of the Kondamana family, maternal uncle of .. pi, 12 other villages in
addition, as a Brahman endowment, for the enjoyment who is styled the of the Mattapatti god,
great refuge (
maha-aaranna).The inseription was engraved by Visvakamma, by direction of Naga-
datta, as the raja had commanded, on this pillar of unburnt snitable stone. There are various bene-
dictioas at the end, which are of interest. The grant is dated in the 4th year, the first fortnight of

the autumn season, the second day, the first asterism Rohini. From the script, style and situation

of this inseription, and the relationship of the donee, it is evidently not removed very far in time
from that of Satakarnni which precedes it. I have therefore marked its date as about 250 A.D. The
Prakrit employed is the M aharashtri form ,
and Dr. Biihler considered the inseription an evidence

that this was already at that time a cultivated language in the South.

The next Kadamba inseription is Sk. 29, the Kudagere copper plates^, engraved in the so-

called box-headed eharacters which are identified with the early Kadambas. The grant is one made

at Sri-vijaya- Vaijayanti (or Banavasi) by the dharmma-maharaja of the Kadambas, sri-vijaya-siva-


Mandhatrivar m a, in the second year (of his reign) and consisted of a parcel of land named ;

Modekarani in the village of Ivudmala 4 , the situation of which is uot stated. The grant was made to

a Brahman named Devasarmma, who was a dattdnuydga or guru (? of the king). The plates

(patiilcd ) were written by Damodaradatta, the private secretary (rahasyadhilcrita). The usual
epithets of the early Kadamba grants are applied to the king, namely, “purified by meditation on
Svami-Mahasena and the group of Mothers, of the Manavya-gotra, a Haritiputra, versed in the views

he had formed on the sacred writings.”

the grant has not been elsewhere met with, and his descent is not given. But on comparing this in-

scription with that ot' Mrigesavarmma ia the Hitnah ebbagilu platea (Hs - 18), it will at ouce appear

how similar they are throughout, The unusual prefix s'ri-vijaya-s'iva to the king’s name also occurs

there, and in both the plates are described as pattihd. Mandhatrivarmma was therefore of the same
period as Mrigesavarmma, and perhaps a near relationwho may have comejust before or just after him.

There are no data for fixing the exact time of either, but they no doubt belong to the 5th century.

We next come to the T alagunda pilla r (S fc. 176.Lihan which no more important or interesting
inscription has been discovered in Mysore, whether we regard its contents, its style, or its execution ;

and it has attracted much attention in Europe. 1


The pillar, which is of a very hard dark grey granite,
is standing in front of the ruined Pranamesvara temple, Its pedestal is 5 feet 4 inches high and 1

foot 4 inches square at the top, a little more at the base. The s haft is octagon a!, 6 feet 4 inches
high, each face beiug 7 inches wide, but tapering slightly towards the top. The finialis a pear-shaped
ornament, l foot 11 inches high, with a considerable piece split off lengthwise on one side, taking off
a little bit from the end of line 10, but no letters are lost. The engraving is in artistically cut
box-headed.chara£ters. and there are two lines oa each face except the last, which has only half a
line. The invocation at the beginning is on the pedestal, and runs up connecting with the first line.

The inscription reads from the botto m upwards. Itis mostly in excellent preservation, except on
the side exposed to the south-west monsoon, which is a good deal worn. The language is Sanskrit
throughout, and the composition is in the hi gh-flow n Kavya style, which it is evident was in full vogue
in the South at that early period, as pointed out by Dr. Biihler. I had gladly consented to the publication

of the inscription by him, than whom no one was better qualified to do it justice ;
but his lamented
death put a stop to this. The first 24 verses are in a very rare metre, which Dr. Kielhorn has stated 3
is not described in any Hindu work on prosody, nor does it occur throughout Hindu literature.
But a minute search has resulted in his discovery of a verse in the same metre in each of two Gupta
and Vakataka inscriptions of the 4Lh or 5th century ,3 Also two verses in the celebrated Bower manu-
script, 4 a Buddhist work of about 400 to 450 A.D ,
written on birch bark, and obtained in Tibet, which

has been deciphered and publishe l with si much labour and skill by Dr. Hoernle. Dr. Kielhorn is

of opinion that other spacimens mty be probably found if a search be made in old writings. 5 “It is

ciear'’ he says “that we have to do with a Mdtrdsamaka, in which each of the four padas of the verse
contains 15 matras. The following is the scheme,

Padas 1 and 3 : ww w — w — w — ww
Padas 2 and 4 : — w—^w
In padas 2 and 4 this scheme is followed throughout the 24 verses. In the two odd padas it

is strictly followed in only 30 (out of 48) first and third padas ;


in 14 other instances, where there
is the short for the 6th matra of the pada, a long is used, and then the following long sometimes
(altogether three times) will be substituted by two short ;
and in the remaining four, the existing in-

stances show in place of the same short, one long and one short. The secondary form of the scheme

for padas 1 and 3 is therefore,

' ww ww w — ww w 16 matras
and ww — — w — w — ww w 17 matras” 6

After the usual expressiori Siddham, the inscription opeus with obeisance and ascription of

victory to S’iva, and praise of the Brahmans. Next follows praise of the king Kak usthavarmm a, the
Kadamba Senani, the moon in the skv of a greaf raca ( brihal-anvaya ). Then commences the highly

important historical portion of the inscription. There was, it says, (at Tajagunda ia implied) a family

of very devont Brahmans, born


1 in the gotra of the Haritiputra, the chief rishi Manavya, of the path of

three rishis. An intereating account is given of their ritual and domestic habita, decidedly arch aic in

character. Their hair was constantly wet with the final ablutions after many kinda of sacrifices, they

had performed the avagaha (or bath on completion of vodic study), maintained the sacred fire, drank

soma juice, and grew fat on sacrifical animals and offerings. They had a kadamba tree growing near

their house, from tending which they name and qualities. In this Kadamba family
acquired its

there arose a distinguished and learned Brahman named MayuraSarmm a, who, together with his guru
ViraSarmma, went to the city of the Pallava kings (i. e. Kafichi), and desiring to be proficient in

pmvachana, entered into every ghatiha ,


2 and (thus) became a quick (or ready) debater (or disputant).

There a sharp quarrel arose in connection with the Pallava horses or stables, and he became

so enraged that Kshatriyas should lord it over Brahmans,
to become a Kshatriya for the purpose of revenge. Accordingly, practising himself in the use of wea-

p 0Q8> very different from the sacrificial implements he had been accustomed to handle, — he over-
came the Pallava guards at the frontier and escaped to the inaccessible fores ts at J3(riparvvata (in

Karnul District, near the junction of the Tungabhadra and Krishna rivers). Here he grew to such

power that he levied tribute from the great Bana and other kings. These proceedings made the Pal-

lava kings frown, but aided him in carrying out his designs, and in making preparations for a vigorous
campaign. The kings of Kanchi (the Pallavas) now arched against him with their ocean of an m
army, resolved to put him down. But journeying in various difficult disguises, he penetrated to

their camps at night, and srnote them down like a powerful falcon. Eating the food of disaster, and

being rendered helpless, they were forced by him to carry his sword after him. They therefore
quickly resolved to make friendship with him ; and gave him a crown, at the same time conferring
upon him a territory bounded by the Amararnnava (or Western Ocean) and extending as far as Pre-
mara (Malva), with an undertaking that it should not be entered (or invaded) by others. And having

meditated on Senapati and the Mothers, he was anoint^l by Shadanana.

His successors were his son Kanguvarmma ;


whose son was Bhagiratha ;
whose son was Raghu ;

whose brother was Bhagirathi or Kakustha. A glowing account is given of the prosperity of the

kingdom under the latter ;


and his daughters, it is implied, were given in marriage to the Gupta

The meaning of ghatik6rstha.no, is not aecurately known. Mr. Patliak has translated it ‘religious centre’ (Ind. Ant. XIV, 24).

the use of the word in this inscription, and gives quotations in support of his view that it means something like brabma.

here at whieh Satakarnni and otlier great king3 had worshipped. The king^s son S’aiitivarm ma, who
it appears had acquired three crowns, commissioned Kubja (the hunchbaek), wlio had composed this

poem (kdvyam), to have it inscribed on the stone The inscription closea with a bened.ct:on on

This learned inscription ia full of interesting and important rnatter from beginning to end,.

It gives what appears to be a realistic and true account of the origin of the Kadamba lin ; ot kings,

free from the numerons legends that are current regirding it, 1 and Mayurasarmma is no doubt the
Mayuravarmma who is always represented as the progenitor of the line (see Sk. 117). The Inform-
ation about the Pallavas, Kanchi, Bana and STlpar vvata are highly imp >rtant, as well as the

references to the Premara country, the Goptas, and Satakarnni. In fact, the varions lines of inquiry

it suggests are well nigh inexh mstible. It is much to be regretted that Dr. Biihl .-r was not spared
to elucidate, as no one could so well do, the different questious it offers for investigation. The
inscription is not dated, but every thing points to the 5th century as the perio.l to whieh it belongs.

Another ancient Kadamba inscription is Sk. 66j on a stoneat Tad agan i, in front of the Rame- /
svara temple. In it we have the king Madhuvarmma of the Kadamba family, — who were puritied by

meditation on Svami Mahasena and the g-oup of Mother3, of the Manavya-gotra and Hantiputras,—
making grants in the villages of S'at6mahila (whieh means the hundred women) and Ketakapada-

king’s name. In any case, Indra is said to be ruling the Banavasi Twelve Thousand, whieh is the
reason for placing this under the Kadambas. v v ^
The next inscription (3k. 45 6), whieh is on a stone at the Gautamesvara temple in the Gauj

to that god, and to
the Brahmms of a number of vdlages, first among whom come the thousand of Gautama-grama. At
-

one point we have mention of Kannarasa as ruling the kingdom o tK world. This was the Rashira-
kuta king, and fixes the date at a bout 890. And Ajavarmmarasa, son of the Kadamba?, is mentioned.

Sk. 517 is on copper plates at tho Virakta-matha ia Balgami. It contains a gtnealogy of the
Kadambas, and records a gratit ia 1118 by the king Soraa for the eslablishment of an agiahara for
67 Brahmans. In accordance with the usual legend, Kadamba is sajd to ha ve spmng fiQina drop of
sweat which feli from the brow of S'iva under a kadamba tree, and he was born with four long arma
and an eye in his forehead. He begat Mayuravarma, who begat Ravivarma, whose son waj Nriga-
varma, and he begat Kiitivarma. In his line arose Vikrama-Tailapa, who destioyed his enemies,
watching for them with the sword in his hand like a black serpent with hood expanded, and who
performed from his birth uumeious sacrifices for the promotion of dharma, which, as a four-footed
bull, stili wanders about at will in the shade of his sacrificial posts, rejoicing in the streams of the
final ablutions. In his line was born the king Tailama, who won the earth by his courteous manners.
His son was Kama-Dev a, whose bounty was proclaimed by heralds lrom road to road, from city to city,
and from village to village, in ali directions. His son was Malia, whose que en was Padmavati. But
he also had a favourite queen Basavala-Devi, who was the mother of Soma, at the sound of whose
kettle-drums his enemies svvooned away. Though 6ome of these names occur in other grants, 1 this
genealogy as a whole appears to be new.

Sk. 100 is an elaborate account of the Chalukya kings. In the reign of Somesvara Bhu-
lokamalla, when he had come on an expedition to the South, — the Kadamba king Taila, whose
abode was at Virata-nagari ( Hanugal), delivered a very long spec ch praising Baljigave and its

temples in the highest terms, expecially the Kedara temple and matha, and the gurus of the latter.
The emperor was overcome by his eloquence, and wished to perform some work of merit in so aus-

picious a place, on which Taila skilfully brought to his notice a grant he had himself already made,
and procured confirmation for it. The date isHI. 47, which isone year later, records the

death of Tailapa, on account of which event a man named Boppana made good the vow he had
taken for the occasion (vile-vakyam), and went to svargga with Tailaha-Deva. And Mayuravarma-
Deva with ali his officials made a grant for the family, in consideration of Boppa’s having fulfilled

his time vow simeya-jola ).

supplicating S'iva for a son, and was turning away in despair that no response had been vouchsafed

announcing to Isvaramsa that two brilliant sons would be born to the king under the name of the
Kadamba-kula, and that he was to teach them the use of weapons. Accordingly, Kirttivarmma and
M aytavarmm a were born. The latter had a son Tayta , whose Bon was S' anta , whose scn was
Maihu Alterne and many others of the l ine had ruled, there was Boppa, the. husband ot S'ri-Dev!.

Bopparasa, lamenting that siuce the Kadamba Taila no one had arisen in the family worthy to
protect the whole world, together with his wife supplicated Dakshina Somanatha for a son. And
l&vara granted the boon that they should have a son equal in bodily strength to Rayamurari-Soma, who
should t ransfer the glory of the Kafachuryyas to th e Kadambas. And after his birth, in order that be
might be recognized as the Kadamba Rudra., the god appeared to the wife inadream, — clad in white

garments, mounted on Nandi, — and marking the child’s forehead with vibhuti (or ashes), gave him the
na ne Soma. A long account follows of his growth and distinetion. An ofEcer under him, named
Machi-Nayaka, erected in Bandanike inNaj^ri-khanda the Boppes vara temple, which the king Soma,
his wife Laclichala-Devi, and others endowed. And the Kalachuryya king Rayamurai i-S6vi-Deva’s
minister Nacharasa granted certain taxes for it in 1174. Sk. 197 gives as the farther Information

that the Kadambas were the rulers of N agara-khanda, and that Bopp a was the son of Brahma and
Chattala-Devi. His son was Soma, praised as in the former inscription, to whom and to Lachchala-
Devi was born Boppe, who is said to have had an army of 18 aJcshohini\a,nd whose capital (
rdyulhuni
was Bandhava-pura (Bandanike). A list of Jainj;urus is then giveri, ending with Nayakirtti, who
was the preceptor of S'ankara-samanta, Boppa-Deva's chief supporter, his descent being traced
from the Nandu-vamsa. He built a spltndid Jina temple for S'antinatha in Magudi, which gaimd
such approval even from Suryyabharana, the priest of Tripurantaka in Balipura (Balgami), that he
granted an endowment for it. S'ankama-I)eva now distributed ali his wealtb. and marched away to

join the king Ballal a, in whose Service he came with him to Tanagunda. While they vveie
there, Recharasa, the Kalachuryya minister, came to Magudi to worship at the temple, which he

did along with Boppa and S'ankara, and was so pleased with it that he made a grant for it. Thia
was in 1182. The merchants and others also granted dues for it.

Sk. 183 of 1200 gives an account of the establnhment of the Sthanugudha or TA]agunda agra-
hara._ When M ukkanna- Kadamba was ruling the Kuntala country, he sought diligently throughout

the regioa of the South for any Brahmans, but found none. He therefore without delay went /orth v

0! these kings there is one inseription, Sk. 154, 1
in wliich we have rogilli-Sendraka-n ahaiaja
ruling the Nayarkhaiida (that is, Kagai akh; nda) and Jedugur, under the Chalukja empeior Vinaya-
ditya Rajasraya, in about 685.
The Sendrakas are a line of subordinale kings nuntioned in early inscriptions, wbo secm to have-

much in common with t he Sindas, (see the section ou these farther on) and to occupy contiguous
paris of the Bonabay and Mysore countries. They claim to be of the Bhujagend ranvaya' or lineage of
the snake king 2
,
just as the Sindas claim to be of th e Phaniraja-v amsa, which has thesame meaning..
They were thus botn of N a race. The Sendrak a-vi shaya is mentioned in the Bennur plates, containing

a Kadamba grantof the 5th century. (Bl. 245, Vol. V). One of the witnesses in the Mere ara plates, of

the same period, (Cg- 1, Vol. I) is aSendrika, but tlns may perhaps not be thesame name. In Ci. 43
the country south of Basavapattana seems to be callad the Sendra cou ntry solate as the ITth century,-
and this must have adjoined the Sinda country, as appears from their inscriptions in tliis volume.

Senavaras
The Senavara kings were brought to notice in Vol. VI. 1 here is only one inscriptior here (Skr
278) riferring to tbem, in which we find the pritlmvi-vallabha Senavara-bhuvara under the Chalu-
kya king Viiayaditya-Satyasraya, in abot 700. It is too much defaced to supply any information.

Similnrly, the Parla-Kimedi plates of the Ka]inga Ganga king Vajrahasta (published by Or. Kielhorn in Er- Ind. HI, 220),
and th« Chicacole plates of SatyavarmmA of the same dynasty (published by Dr. Fleet in Ind. Ant. XI Y, 10), are in a
mixture of alphabets. Of the former, Dr. Kielhorn says,
— “ The cliaracters present a curious mixture of the Nagari

merely shown his familirrity with sereral kinds of writing, but has also displayed some skill in the arranirement of the

the usual manner of the Ganga copper piate grants, we have first Kongujivarratna, who divided the
great pillar of sterne with a siagle stroke of his sword, and was adorned with a coronet of
TsarnniMrct petals (see Sh. 4). His son vva3 Vishnugopa, whose son was Tadahgala-Madhava-
Raya, ruliag in Talavana-pura. On the date given, which apparently corresponds with 357 A.D.
he granted land as a reward to Rama-deva, tha son of a gauda or farmer, for an act of bravery in
killing Henjera, and rescning Rajamalla’s wife and guards.

Affcer a considerable inter ?al we come to Sh. 9S, iu which we find that when Ereyappa assumed
the crown, Batuga was governing the Mandali-nad and had a qneen Chikkabbe, to whom he gave a tank
for the god. No date is mantioned In Sh. 24, also without date, Satyavakya-Permmanadi is

ruling, and Kote ... governing the Ma nd di-na Thousand. Sk. 83, of 1058, and Sk. 152, of
1060, are of the time when the Chajukya prince Vikramadity a, who was a Ganga on the mother’s
side ani adopts all the Gangi tities, was in Balligave, rnling Gangav adi, as well as apparently the

Banavasi, Santalige and NolambavaJi provinces, under his father, called Ahavam alla and Trailokya-

inalla. His minister for Bmavase was the Perggade Naranayya. In Sh. 6 we have a Barmma-
Deva, with his wife, son and other relatives, making a grant at Mandali. From Sk, 109, of 1070,

to Sk. 130, of 1075, we have the Brahma-Kshatra Bhuvanaika-vira Udajaditya -Deva ruling first
Gangavadi, and theu the Bmavase and Santalige provinces, under the Chajukya king Bhuvanaika-
malla. His wife was Lachchala-Devi, whose beauty and accomplishments are highly extolled. In
the last inscription the Eight een a grahara s are added to his ad minis tration, and he is said to have
taken tribute from the neighb nring Chera, Chola, Pandya, Pallava and other kiugs, extended his
territory as far as the four oceans, and to be living in peaca in the royal city BaJJigave. From
HI. 14, of 1076, to Sh. 115, of.1 101, we have Tribhuyanamalla Gahga-Permmadi-B eva ruling Ganga-
vadi under the Chalukya king Tribhuvanamalla. In 1085 (Sh. IO) 1 the king is said to have given
him the Mandali Thousand, with all the rights as regaris treasure trove and underground Stores,

according to the rule of one-third ([tribhigSbhjcmtam ). 2 And he in tura rewarded Perggade Nokkayya,
who had enlarged a tank, firrued pad ly-fields, built basadis aud established places for the distri-

butiori of water and food, with the government of Tattekere and the headship of eight villages, also
giving him ‘20 horses, 500 servauts, and a village, besides granting royal insignia for the basadis,
and taxes The poetry of the inscription was composed by the minister for peace
for their support.

and war, Dami-Kaji. With Sh. 51 of 1108 we have Bh uiabala-Gauga-Permmadi-Beva. who was
ruling Gangavadi and the Meghutti-Maudali Thousand. Sh. 97 of 1113 informs us that this king’s
wife was Ganga-mahadevi, and they had four sons— Ganga, Marasinga, Goggi, and Kaliyanga. The
king's residence was atJEdehalli (now in Koppa taluq) and here he appears with a second wife Bachali-

Devi. The way in which she fascinated her husband, it says, was like a play (mtaka)$ He gave
her the title patra-)aga-dah (head of the world of dancers) and seems to have bestowed on her the
village op Bnnnikere, where she built a Jina temple, and the king endowed it, the whole of his
family and ministers being present. Among other grants given for it the Lokkigundi prabhu gave
1| Lokki gadyan a., a coinage not met with before.

Sh. 57 of 1115 brings us to Nanniya-Gau ga, the eldest son of Bhujabala-Ganga and Ganga-
mahadevi. This inscription also contains the detailed genealogy of the Gafigas and list of gurus

which will be noticed under Sh. 4. The king continued to reside at Ede^lli and made a grant for

a basadi. In 1118 he made (Sk. 127) a grant for Uma-Mahesvara of the Paficha Linga templo
at Balgami. In 1120 he was attacked by tbe Poysaja king Bitti-Deva’s general Boppa (Sh. 12)
and a battle was fought at Halasur. Sh. 15 also mentions a great battle in 1122. From Sh. 4
we leam that Nanniya-Gauga built of stone the Pattada-tirtha basadi of Mandali which his grand-
father had erected, and built also 25 otkar chaityalayas. His queen was Kanchala-Devi and they
had a son Hermmadi or Permmadi.

In Sh. 56 we have Vira-Ganga-Permmadi-I)eva, whose general Gafigimayya made an attack


upon Belagavatti in 1125 but lost his life in the atterapt. In Sh- 99 we are informed that the
king had built a fort in Kannakapura in Mandali-nad, and in 1127 made a grant for a well dug for

the temple to the east of the fort. Sh. 37 and 20 and Sk. 18 are again of the time of Nanniya-
Ganga who was ruling the Edevatte Seventy, the Ballave Seventy, Narivelige and agrahara B egur.

Ci. 73 carries us to the Ga hga kmgs nf Asandi under the Hoysalas. Barmmarasa was ruling

in 1180. In HI 79 of 1185, he is called Mara Bammarasa. Ci. 64 gives us the history of


the family to Narasimha as already publishedin Vol. VI. In 1214, while the latter was ruling, a
nal-prabhu founded a village, constructed tanks and erected a temple, which he endowed, Among
other gifts was one for the saldkdcharya of the god Harihara, a man who answers questions by
putting a salaJci or stick into a book at random and so finding a suitable passage, In Sh. 5 the
minister Ganga’s son Madhu sudaria erected a GahgeSvara temple in 1218 in the name of his father.

In Ci. 72 we have a Vaijarasa ruling, in 1220, who must therefore be a Vaija III, and in the

second part of the same inscription is another Bammarasa in 1221. Sh. 87 of 1245 is too much
defaced to make out the connected raeaning, but begins with an emuneration of Bhujabala, Vira,
and Nanniya Gvnga, who have been mentioned above as ruling Mandali-nad.

We may now proceed to consider the detailed account of the origin and genealogy of the
Gangas as given in the following inscriptions Sh. 10, 64, 57, 4, 39 and 56 (only the be-

ginning), dating m the ehd of the 1 lth and begianing of the 12th centuries 1 The most complete are
the Puraje and Kallurgudda stones (Sh. 64 and 4), of 1112 and 1122. Both begin with ac-
knowledgement of the Chalukya sover eigntty , after which the second gives an account of the Hoy-
salas to Narasimha. Then both continue alike, the former professing to give the IkshvdJcu-vamid-

vataram and the latter the Gangdnvayd vatdram, of which the following is a summary, from the
latter. 2 In Ayodhya-pura was born the head-jewel of the Ikshvaku race, HariSchandra (according to
Sh- IO, the son of Dhananjaya, —capturer of Kanyakubja, — and Gaudhari-Devi), whoruled inpeace
for a long time. His son was Bharata, whose wife was Vijaya-mahadevi. When the longing of

pregnancy arose in her, she went to bathe in the Ganges and recovered her brightness. In due time

she bore a son, who from the above circumstance was named Gaujadatta. He in turn had a son

Bharata, whose son was again Gaiigadatta, whose son was Harischandra. His son was another
Bharata, whose son was also Gaiigadatta. While the Gatiga line was thus continuing, there arose
in it a king named yishnugupta, who gained an empire and ruled from Ahichchhatra-pura, where he
performed the Aindra-dhvaja-puja, and Devendra being pleased thereat gave him Airavata (his ele-

phant, regent elephant of the eaot). To Vishnugupta and his wife Prithvimati were born the sons
Bhagadatta and SVidatta. To the former the father gave Kaliuga, which he ruled in peace as
Kalinga Gahga. To S'ridatta he gave the ancestral kingdom and the elephant, which thcnceforward
was adopted as a crest. Then there arose in his family Priyabandku or Priyabandhuvarmma, to

whom Indra, pleased with his faith, gave five ornaments (or tokens), saying—“If in your line any
who countenance falsehood (or a false faith) should arise, they (the ornaments) will disappear.” And
giving to Ahichchhatra the name of Vijayapura, Devendra departed. The Gahga line continued to

flourish, and in it, to the king Kampa was born a son named Padmanabha. The latter, distressed

at having no sons, brought Padmaprabha’s sdsam-d^vali into his power, and thus obtained tvvo sons,
whom he named Rama and Lakshmana. At tbis juncture, Mahipala, r uler of Ujjayini-pura, attacked
Padmanabha, demanding the five ornaments. Padmanabha indignantly replied that it was as im-
possible for him to part with them as for Mahipala to wear them, and added a defiaut message.
Meanwhile, taking counsel with his ministers, he sent his sons away, with his younger sister a Virgin,

and forty-eight choseu Brahmans. And as they were going to the South, he gave to Rama and
Lakshmana the names Dadiga and Madhava .
1

Continuing by daily journeys, they arrived at^Perur (or Gahga Perur), where tbey met with the
distinguished muni Simhanandy-acharyya, and informed him of their circumstances. He, taking
them by the hand, made them proficient in all learning and obtained for them from the goddess
Padmavati the boon of a sword and a kingdom. Madhava, seizing the sword, gave a shout and
struck with it a stone pillar, which immediately broke in two .
3 Recognizing this as an auspicious
sign, Simhanandi crowned them with a coronet of karnnikara petals, provided them with a suitable
retinue, and put them in possession of the Ninety-six Thousand kingdom, with Nandagiri (Nandi-
droog) as their stronghold, and Kuvalala (Kolar) as their capital. And the boundaries of that Gaiiga-
vadi country were, — north, as far as Maraudale ;
east, Tonda-nad ;
west, the ocean and Cheram ;

South, Kongu. Thus secure in the kingdom, they were marching to subdue Konkaua, when they
passed through Mandati , and being pleased with the place, by the advice of Simhanandi erected a
chaityalaya there.

On was born to Dadiga, named Madhava, who succeeded to the


their return to Kojala, a son

throne. His son was Harivarmma, whose son was Vishnugo pa, who associated with falsehood (or a
false creed) and the ornaments given by Indra accordingly disappeared. His son was P.rithvi-Ganga,
who favoured the true faith, and his son was Tadangala-Madhava. There followed in succession
Avinita, Durvvinita, Mushkara, S'rivikrama, whose sons were Nava-Kama and
and Bhuvikrama,
Eraga, From the latter there succeeded Ereyanga, Srivall abh a, S’npurusha, SIvamara, and
Marasimha. who subdued the VIalava Seven and named it Ganga-Malava, cast aside Chitrakuta and
siew Jaykesi in battle, His son was Rac hamalla, whose grandsous were Maru layya and Butuga.
Then followed Erey.ippa, Vlra-Vedanga, Rachamalla, Ereyanga, Butuga, Marula-Deva, Guttiya
Ganga, Marasihga, Govindara, Saigotta Vijayaditya, Rachamalla, Marasihga, Kurula Rajiga (in
some called Satyavakya), and Garvvada Ganga. Govindara’s nephew was apparently Rakkasa Ganga,
whose younger brother was Kaliyahga,

Here a diversion is made to give the descent of the aoharyyas of the Kranur-gana, These were,
briefly, —Simhanandi, Arhadbali, Damanandi, Balachandra, Meghachandra, Gunachandra, Guna-
nandi, Prabhachandra, Maghanandi and Prabhachandra, whose colleagues were Anantabiryya and
Munichandra, and their disciples S'rutak'rtti, Kanakanandi Vadiraja, Madhavachandra and Bala-
chandra. Prabhachandra’s disciple was Budhachandra, and his l.ty- disci ple Barmma-Deva Bhuja-
Tiala-Gahga-Permmadi-Deva.

No fartlier mention is made of what occurred in their father’s kingdom, the remainder of the narrative following
the
fortunes of these two sons, ihave omitted some of the superuatural details introdueed into the preceding story, such as
the nirvdna of Nemi-Tirthakara, the Mvalajn&na of Pars'va-Bhatt2raka and the visit of Saadharmendra.

This incident is mentioned in ne3rly all the old Gahga plates and in one place it is descrihed ns a bar or lolt which was an
ohstacle preventing his securing the throne,
u
He appointed the basadi which Dadiga and Madhava had formerly built of wood and established
on the hili of Maudali, and for which the Gahga kings had continued to provide offerings, to be the
chief lasadi in the Edadore Seventy of the Maudali Thousand, giving it the name of Pattada basadi
(the Crown church), and endowed it. His sons were Marasinga, Nanniya Gahga, Rakkasa Gahga, and
Bhu jabala Ganga, each of whom made grants for it. Here dates are given for each. And Nanniya
Gahga had the basadi built of stone in 1112, and erected 25 other basadi s, endowing them. His
wife was Kanchala-Devi, and they had a son Hermmadi or Permmadi-Deva. (From Sh. 64 it
5
appears that he became Ereyanga-Hoysala s son-in-law),

Such is the account, and parts of it have the appearance of fable, while others are undoubtedly
true. The origin of the Gahgas is derived from Ikshvaku and traced back to Ayodhya-pura. 1
Uuuer Vishnugupta the seat of government is moved to Ahichchhatra, which it is hinted was Vijaya-
Pura. 2 To this king is attributed the separation into the two lines of' the Eastern and Western (langas
those of Kalinga and Mysore. With the arrival of Dadiga and Madhava in. the south, at Gahga-Perur,

and the establishment of the Gangavadi kingdom in Mysore aided by Simhanandi, we seem to come
to historical events. For Ganga-Perur is in the Kadapa District, and stili bears that name to distin-

guish it from other Perurs. Simhanandi is kuown from literature and other records, and is in

several places described as the founder of the Ganga kingdom. The succession of rulers is in general

accord with what we know from inscriptions in various parts, but many of the details vary, which is

only to be expected in such extended annals.

The name Ganga which designates this line of kings,— whence Gangavadi, the name of their
kingdom, and Gaugavadikaras, now contracted to Gangadikaras, that of its people, — is not an
ordinary one. The storie3 atl derive it from the Ganga or Ganges river, and they may be right. For
the only race kuown to us bearing a similar name are the Gahgaridse mentioned in Greek and Roman
classical writers, who, along with the Prasii, the people of Behar, were the subjects of Chandra Gupta,
and occupied Bengal. Pliny calls them Gahgaridse Calingse, and describes them as a powerful people
with a large military force 3 Now when we consider the alleged and probable connection of Chandra
Gupta, and the proved connection of Asoka, with Mysore, grounds are not wanting, it seems to me, oh
which to base a derivati on of the name of the Gahgas here from that of the subjects of those rulers in

the north. Mauryas and Guptas, who had their origin there, survived in the south ;
why not Gahgas ?

The Rashtrakuta volume begin with Sk. 283, not dated, which is of the
inscriptions in this

reign of Nripatunga or Amoghavarsha, about 830 Hi. 13 of 870 is also of his time, but the only

name remaming of the king is Marasatya. The actual name of Amoghavarsha seems not to be
knovvn. Perhaps the iuformation is now obtained here. Indra was ruling Banavasi at that time. The
next three inscriptions belong to Kannara-Deva II (Sk* 45^ of about 899 , 284 of 902, and 219 of

tows. The inscription was compo3ed by Nagavarmma. HI. 21 to 23 areofthe time of Suvarna-
varsha, a title of Govinda IV. Their date is 934. Sk. 194 is of the same reign, (and 322)
though no overlord is mentioned. In it Puliyyamma, perggade of the Santalige Thousand, who had
attained the rank of great minister, is said to have constrncted the big tank at Tanagunda in 935, and
made it over to the town on condition of certain annual payments being kept up. The remaining
two are of the time of Akalavarsha, Khandara-Ballaha, or Kannara-Deva. Sk. 183 is of about 950,
and Sankaraganda was governing Banavasi-nad. Sh. 22 is dated 963.

Santaras
The S'antaras were brought to notice in Vol, VI. Bn t Sk. 103 gives the following account of
their origin and genealogy. They were born from the arms of Brahma, that is, were Ksbatriyas, and
being free (s'dnta) from the quality of tamas (darkness), free (s anta) from enemies by their migkt,
and free (Santa) from fear and avarice, they acquired the name of S'antaras. Among them arose
Ammana ,
whose brotber was Sih gi-D eva. Ammana’s son was Taila, whose son was Kama. His wifc
was Bijjala-Devi, and they had a son Jagadeva. Bijjala-Devi’s sister was Chattala-Devi, who bore to
Vijayaditya-Deva a son Jayakesi, who was reckoned as Jagadeva’s elder brother. He ruled the Seven
Konkana s, and had a younger brother Sihgi-Deva.

The earliest mention of the S'antaras here is in Sk. 233 of about 830, in which we have Jagesi
{? Jayagesi) ruling the whole of Sa ntalige, which corresponds vvith the present Tirthahalli taluq. Sk.
45&, of about 890, mentions Santarasa without spec-ifving any name. In Sk. 284 we have Vikra-
maditya Santara ruling in 902. An Ereya-Permmadi Santa-Kamapa is also mentioned, whose son
was ? Ambinayita, whose son was Chandiga, bnt the inscription is not ciear. HI. 21 to 23, of 934,
only mention Santara, without any name. In Sh. 114 we have J inadat ta-Raya in ? 950. He ia said
to be born in the Kanaka-kula, and of the line of the Kalase kings. These were Santaras, as we have
seen in Vol. VI. In Sk. 195 Oddaman a appears as king of the Santalige T h ousa nd in 1007,
when he made a raid on Talagunda, carrying off the good looking women and the temple cows.
Sk. 47 shows a Vikrama- antara S'rivallabha -Deva making a grant in 1027 to the thirty-two
thousand Brahmans of the Gauda agrahara. Sk. 53 presents a N anni- Santara Annala-Deva in the
same year making a grant for a temple erected by the son of the chief Brahman of Tagarache (now
Tagarti). Ia Sk. 63 there is Trailokyamalla Vira-Santara-Deva, who in 1063 remitted to certain
Brahmans of agrahara Kannavur all the taxes that had been imposed by the members of his family.
The imprecations at the end are novel. Sk. 46 gives as apparently a Vira-Santaraditya (no doubt
the same as the preceding), who made a grant in 1068 for the god Gautamesvara of the Gauj
agra-
hara. Sk. 62 of about 1070 mentions Trailokyamalla Vira-Santara-Deva’s death, on which the
Gavunda of Porapaje, it says, bore the burden (apparently the body) on his back for three days
more and then released it, receiving from the succeeding Santara money for preserving (? the body
ofhis predecessor). The inscription is obscure as to i ts meaning. In 1076 a Kali-Santara-Deva
lays siegc to some place (Sk. 50).

It is here, in 1149, that Sk. 103 shows us Tribhuvanamalla

representing the merit of the Dakshina Kedara and virtues of its acharyya Gautama. The king and
his son therefore united in making a grant for the god. In 1173 and 1191 a Vira-Santara-Deva was

the line from Bira. His son was Brah ma or Bommaras a, whosa son was Tammaras a. He is describ-
ed as breaker of the pride of the Lala king, destroyer of the Kadamba king, huuter of the Koh-
kani king, setter up of the Tulu king. His residence was at Hosagund a, the chief jewel of the
Santalige kingdom. His minister Soma-Nayaka had the Kaliya-gatta of Sanda built, in return for
which, the Brahmans of Sandilya, in the presence of the Bralimans of ali the 96 villages (several
named), resolved to call it Somanatha-gatta, and made a grant to him of lands and a house.
A
Chalukyas
The inscriptions of the Chalukyas, as was to be expected, are the most numerous in the volume.
The first is a fragment which refers to the early king Polekesi, and may therefore belong to about 640.
Next comes Sk. 154, of the time of Vinayaditya, about 685, Pogilli-Sendraka-maharaja being the
governor of Nayarkhanda and Jelugur. Sk. 278 is of the time of Vijayaditya . about 700, It men-
tions the Senavara king. --

We then come to the later Chalukyas, and there are two inscriptions (Ci, 7, Sk. 179) of Ahava-

of the time of Sa tyasraja, 1002, and
of Banavasi 1 ^

Bhima-Raja
was stili governor ofBanavasi. Sk.£287, dated 1012, belongs tothe reign of Tribhuvanamalla. Iriva-
bedahga-Deva’s (that is, Satyasraya’s) son Kundamarasa now appears as viceroy of Banavasi and
A
Santalige, and tliis position he hsld throughout the reign of Jayasihgha till the accession of Ahava-

malla in 1042 (Sk, 184). He is also called Kunda-Raja (Sk. 307) and Kundaka.Raja (Sk. 9). In
Sk, 287 a predicament is presented which it says was like the suit in the Bhdrata ,
in which the
well, the pot and the rope each belonged to a different man. Sk. 307 quotes a text which occasionally
recurs in the inscriptions, saying, — By these two (classes of) men only is the disk of the sun bursfi

through 2 the sannyasi absorbed in yoga, and he who dies facing the foe in battle. In Sk. 285
Kundamarasa is styled a Mari to the Tivulas, and Sattiga’s (that is, his father Satyasraya’s) hatla

(or stubborn one).

With Sk. 125 b agin the inscriptions of Jayasimha-Deva, Jagadekamalla. In this, Tailapa is
\ J described as a fierce fear of the last day to Chola, and as eager for war with Chola. Of the Icings
of the Chajukya dynasty, it says that 59 had sat on the throne in Ayodhya-pura with great glory.
In their line was born Satyasraya-Deva, who became a sdrlba-bliauma or universal emperor. In that
Satyasra,ya-kula arose Nurmmadi-Taila. The land and the crown having fallen into the hands of the
Rattas, he drove them out, this millstone to the Rattas, and took possession of the crown of the Cha-
lukya kingdom. Jayasingha was a sun to the lotus king Bhoja, and a lion to the elephant Rajendra-
Chola. The Seven Malavas he made to pack up their bundles, and foreed Chera and Chola to plunge
into the sca. Kundamarasa was ruling the Banavase Twelve Thousand, the Santalige Thousand
and the Hayve Five Hundred, ubhaya sdmyadi (? with both rights) as far as to the Western Ocean,
and had his residence in Balipura (Balgami), Sk. 9 says that he was also ruling the Eighteen
agraharas. In Sk, 177 the thirty-two thousand Brahmans of the Sthanakundur agrahara make

a grant for the god Pranamesvara. In Sk. 30 a Satyasraya-Deva appears ruling Santalige under
Kundamarasa. He iscredited with victory over the Tivula forces, and is styled Kundamas warrior
( ahlcalcara \ Sk. 20« shows Jayasimhain 1032 in the residence of Etagiri, (Yatagiri in the NizanPs

Shi 126 is an interesting and important inscription. The opening portion States that after the
Pandavas had performed the Rajasuya sacr ifice, they came to Balligave and set up the Five Lingas.
The king was now, 1036, in the residence of Pottalakere, and he made a grant for the repairs of
the temple of the Pancha Linga set up by the Pandavas, vvhich was the Kalamukhi Brahmachari-
•sthana of Balligave. The grant was made to the celebrated LakuliSvara-pandita, 1 vvlio was living
there and whose prases are given at great length, He had the title Vadi-Rudraguna, and the oppon-
ents he overcame in disputation were Akalahka, Vadi-gharatta, Madhava-bhatta, Jnanananda,
Visvanala, Abbayachandra, Vadibha-simha, Vadiraja, and Nayavadi. The inscription closes with
what I am informed is a quotation from K.umarila-bhatta, a‘firming that Mahadevais god, and that
the rules enjoined in the three vedas for th e order of castes and asramas are dharmma \
moreover
undertaking to refute in publio assembly any one who casts aspersion on these two statements. The
town is directed to maintain the work of merit: “let the irreligious leave it entirely alone.” Sk. 153
shows the king in 1039 residing at Ghattadakere.

With Sk. 323 negin the inscriptions of Trailokyaraalla or Ahavamalla, whose name was
Somesvara.5- We here find Singanna-Devarasa as governor of Bana vasi and Santalige, besides

'Other districts as far as to the Western Ocean. Among the epithets applied to him he is callect

guardian of Kollipake, the door of the South. He repaired the temple of the goddess Bhagavatl
Balliyabbe near Balligave and endowed it. In the same year we see in Sk. 160 that Chamunda-
Rayarasa was made governor of Banavasi and other proviuces. Sk, 151 describes him as lord of

Banavasi-pura, a brave at the courts of three kings, makingsport ofKohkana, a wild-fireto Kanagile-
vada, thrustcr aside of Kannama. The splendour of his elephants and horses moved to jealousy the
Txurjjara, Chera, Chola and other kings. He erected in 1047 the fine Bherundesvara pillar at Bal-

gami, which surmounted by a ganda-bWrundci and has this inscription engraved on its base.
is ,

From Sk. 120 it would appear that he himself was known as the ganda-bMrunda. In 107 and HL
119, of 1048 and 1054, we liave Trailokyamalla Nanni-Nolamba Pallava-Permmanadi-Deva as
governor of certain provinces. In Sk. 113 the king is described as a lion to the elephant Chola,
a gale to the cloud Kalinga, a sun to the darkness Panchaia, a wild-fire to the forest Magadha, a
thunderbolt to the mountains Malava, a garuda to the serpent Kerala, and a submarine fire to the
ocean the Nepala army. In a moment he sent the Seven Malava, which came against him, to
destruction ;
the Seven Kohkana and Seven Male, which United together, he terrified and forced to
obey him ;
in the middle of the battlo the Chola king grew faint and died. The son of the vadda-
byavahdri or senior merchant of the royal city Balligrame erected a temple there to Abhinava-So-
mesvara. HI. 1 gives us the interesting information that Trailokyamalla^ chief queen was Hoysala-
Devi. She made a grant for a tirttha which a Gauda of Onnali (the earliest form of the present
Honnali) had established on the banlc of the Tuhgabhadra.

In Sk. 83 we find Chalukya-Ganga-Permmanadi Vikramaditya-Deva, who was a younger son


of the king by a Gahga mother and assumes ali the Gahga tities, appoiuted in 1053 as viceroy of

-Gahgavadi, with Banavasi, Santalige and Nolambavadi, holding his residence at Balligave. Sk. 152
records a strange event that took place there in 1060 in his time. This inscription is on what

is called the sfda-JJrahma. st one and is somewhat obscure. A man named Tuluva Chandiga seeras

being a son of the king by an Eastern Chaluky a mpth er. He had made a victorious expedition to
the South, aad vvas eacamped at Mudukakere in 1063. In the same year we are told by Sk. 170
that the great miaister, the dandanayaka Rupabliattayya, who was in charge of the vadda-ravula

(? the principal taxes) and the Eighteen agraharas, established the Jayanti Bauddha vihara’in
Balligave, and made grants for it aad for the worship of Tara Bhagavati and of the gods KeSava,

Lokesvara and Bauddha (


Bauddha. diva ), with all their attendant gods, and for distribution of

food to the ydginis, luis' alis and sannydsis, Buddhism therefore survived to a very late period here..

The site of this vihara is stili poiuted out, and I found tliere tne image of Tara Bhagavati. This-

was made, according to Sk. 169, by Nagiyakka, wife of the md-perggade 2. She was apparently of
3
the Bappura family, no doubt the same as the Batpura family from which the Chalukya king Puli-
kesi obtained his wife in 550, and the adi-niahd-Bappnra-vams'a to which Satyasraya-Dhruva-Indra-
varmma, the Chalukya governor at Revati-dvipa in 611, belonged 4 . In Sk. 19 Lakshmarasa appears-
as the governor of Banavasi.

With the highly important inscription Sk. 136 we enter upon the reign of Bhuvanaikamalla,.

Panchaia Lala and others, and made their forces serve him. Even so the muscles of his arm and
the energy of his mind not being exhausted, he set out alone (for svarga) as if to fight against Indra,

defeat him, and make him give tribute. And on the date corresponding with the 29th of March

1068, performing the rites of supreme yoga at Kuruvartti, he ascended to heaven in the
Tungabhadra. Bilhana in his Vihramanka-charitra 5 states that Ahavamalla was seized with a
severe fever, and feeling that his end was approaching, had himself conveyed to the banks of the
Tungabhadra. Bathing in the river and giving away much gold ia charity, he waded in until the
water reached his neck, and amid the din of the waves and of all manner of musical instrumenta
3
deliberately drowned himself .

The inscription goes on to say that on the date corresponding with the llth of April 1068, or

fourteen days after this tragic ceremony, his eldest son Some&vaia assumed tbo throne, with all the

royal insignia, and the desire of the whole world was drawn to him. The Choja king thought to take

advantage of this juncture, exclaiming,


— “ A new reign ;

I vvill surround Gutti and besiege it.’ This he did, with an immenso army.

Somesvara at oace put his forces in motion to oppose him, and on the advanced cavalfy coming into
contact, a fieres battle eusued, in which Vira-Chola t urned his back and fled. AU tbe forciga kiugs
vere in consequence stricken with terror, and gladly became Somesvara’s servants. He retained
Lakshma, who is represented as inlispensable to the Chalukya kingdom, as thegovernor of Banavasi,
writing a sasana and conferring royal honours upon him. Junior is king Vikrama-Ganga to me ;
to

tliat Permmadi-Deva the next junior is Vira-Nolamba-Deva ;


to me, to Permmadi, and to Sihgi, you
are the junior ;
but to you ali (the rast) are juniors ;
i— said the king, thus raaking him next to

the royal fami ly. Lakshmana becarnj lord of the great Banavase-nad, Vikrama-Nolamba became
lord of Nolamba-Sindavadi, and Gahga-mandalika became lord of the territory beginning from Alam-
pura, 2 —Bhuvanaikamalla givmg thern those countries with the view of their being like a J.ong bar (or

bolt) to the South. Lakshma trod down Konkaua, drove back the Seven Kombu, and uprooted the

Seven Male. He is called Rayadanda-Gopala, and united in himself the chier' heroic characters of

both Bdmdyana and Bharata. His minister and chief treasurer was Somanatba, a Jain, who was

a very distinguished poet, having the cognomen Sarasvati-mukha-mukura, and being the author of
Sultmmra-charita. He persuaded Lakshma to build of stone the Mallikamoda-S'antinatha basadi in

Baligrama, which was of wood ;


and he set up a stone pillar, he says, at the principal entrance, re-
counting ali his names and tities. He also with the emperor’s permission granted for it some land
which had formerly belonged to other basadis.

With Sk, 109 and 110 we come to theGanga p rince Udayaditya as vi ceroy of Gangavadi,
(

Banavase and Santalige, in abou t 1070. He was of BrahmaMvsliatraaescent, and had the title
Bhuvanaikavira. His wife was Lachchala-Devi, of great beauty and accomplisliments. In 110 we
have the following list of the later Chalukyas, which is also repeated in 130 and 135 ! —Tailapa,
Satyasraya, Vikramaditya, Ayyana, Jayasimha, and Trailokyamalla. In Sk. 129 we find him in

1071 applying to the king, who was in the residence of B ahkapura ,


for a grant on account of the god
Hariharaditya of Balligave, and for the matha attached to it. At the head of this was the Advaita
iuminary Gunagalla-yogi, whose virtues are highly extolled. Among the sculptures at the top of the

stone is an effigy of him, with his name over it. He is also called in the inscription Gunagalla
Nagavarmmacharyya. A list is given of several temples and a tirtha he had erected. In Sk. 295

Udayaditya, by order of the senior queen, granted in 1074 the tax on marriage pandals of the
Seventy and on looking glasses of dancing girls, to provide for the offerings to the god Ra-
farailies

mesvara of agrahara Bhattara-Posavur. In 1075 the king was stili at Bahkapura, with Udayaditya
as his viceroy (Sk. 221). He made a grant for a new basadi erected at Bandanike. In Sk. 130
of the same year we find the Mandali Thousand and the Eighteen agraharas added to Udayaditya’s

jurisdiction.
^
With HI. 14 of 1076 we find Tribhumnamalla Gahga-Permmadi-Deva on the throne, with ali

the Ganga tities, This was Vikramadit ya, who is said in Sk, 124 to have easily overcome the

Chola and Lala kings, with their feudatories, and secured the kingdom. Hc terrified Dhara and

Choja, and his feet were reverenced by the Saurashtra Ahga Kalinga Vanga Magadha Andhra
Panchaia kings. Scorning to share with others, he took the whole burden of the
Avanti and it

world upon himself. His governor of Ban avase, Santalige and the Eighteen agraharas was Barmma-
‘Devarasa, who was persuaded by Pratikantba-Sihgayya in a discourse on dharmma to obtain a
from Ballavarasa and give it fo the Permmadi basadi in Balligave, This the emperor sanc-
village

tioned, as it appears the basadi was one established by himself when he was a prince ( kumtira ), and

Singl eyiaently means Jayasimlm or Jayasinglia, Vira-Nolamba.

viceroy of Banavasi. The grant was made to Raraasena-pandita, vvho is very highly praised as being
ia grammar Pujyapada, in logic Akalanka, and in poetry Samantabhadra. Sk. 107 introduces the
king’s younger brother Jayasimhi, who is praised as a Nolamba. Hisoshot his arrovvs thafc they
went through the body and came out at the back. He seems to liave added the Seven Kohkanas to
the kingdom, but the inscription is much defaced.

Here onr attention is directed to the line of gurus of the S akti-parsh e, in the Muvara-koneya-
santati of the Parvvatavali, who frequently recur. Tn tliirptace^e^Sa^KedaraSakti, whose disciple,
an ornament to the Lakula-samaya, was Rudrabharana, and his disciple Valmiki, described as a
Lakula hand.i Par vvata is no doubt S'ri-parvvata, a great S'aiva sacred place in the Karnul District»

near where the Tungabhadra joins the Krishna. From Sk. 99 it appears that the Muvara-kone
sect included or was connected with the Kalamukhas. Of these, Divyajnani Kasmira-deva was cha-
kravartti (Sk. 114)- Muvara-kone is literally the cell of the three. 2 There is no information to
explain the term, but Sk. 108 prefaces it by Devavrata-muni-sautati. Of the S'akti-parshe,

Kedarasakti is said to be the agrani (Sk. 98) or chief, and may have been the founder. Sk, 94
and 99 describe his son and disciple Srikantba, who was as another LakuleSa. His son and dis-

ciple again was Somesvara, praised at length in Sk. 98, where he is said to have made the
Lahula-siddhdnta to blossom. Sk. 99 says that war appeared to him as tears, and a battle as filled
with demons. The famous Kedaresvara of the nortli, from which the temple at Balgami was
named the Dakshina Kedaresvara, is in the Himalayas in Garhwal, at an elevafcion of more than

11000 iect above the sea. 3 Sk. 100 says that the god Kedara in Balligave, thinking with supreme
benevolence on his faithful worshippers, — afraid of the cold and unable to make that distant pilgrim-

age, — frees tliem from all sins (here).

In Sk. 135, we have Barmmadevarasa stili in power in 1078, but in Sk. 111, about twoyears
later, Gundamarasaappears. Sk. 293 of 1080, however, clearly shows that the Yuva-raja Jayasimha

had been appointed viceroy of Banavase, Santalige and the two Six Ilundreds (Belvala). In Sk 297
he is described as on the most affectionate terms with his brother, like Lakshmana to Rama, He had
burnt Dahala, put to flight Lala and Tivula, and terrified Konkana. The territory he was ruling is
said to be — all the lands as far as the Southern ocean, within Puligere, Ke ,
?Reppu-male, Kasa-
valam, Banavase-nad and Belvala. Bala-Deva was his governor for Banavase and the Eighteen
agraharas, as well as manager of the customs of Balipura. In Ci. 33 we have Tribhuvanamalla-
Pandya-Deva, who was a defeater of the designs of Rajiga-Chola, ruling Nolambavadi in 1083. Sh,
10 shows Gauga-Permmadi-Deva at the same time governing the Mandali Thousand.

In Sk- 16 agrant is made in 1085 to the 1300 Brahmans of the Begur agrahara, and a long
account is given of their virtues and learning. In Sk. 178 of 1092 we have a long account of the
32000 Brahmans ofTanagunduLVt They are said to have com 9 from Ahichchhatra, having gained 12000
agnihdtras, and purified their bodies by bathing in the tirttha near the five great lingas set up by
Brahma, Indra, Chandra, Yama and Agni. They were residents of 144 villagcs received as don-
atioas tor the 18 horse-sacridces of king Mayuravarmma, and were jewels in the frontal ornament of
the lady the Kuntala oountry. Sk- 186 says that Mukkanna-Kadamba, who was king of Kuntala
and lord of Banavasi, made search throughout the South for Brahmans, bnt dnding none, went
without delay to the Ahichchatra agrahara, and there succeeded in obtaining 32 Brahman families,

Sk. 114 of 109G contains the praises of a general named Kalidasa, who had overfchrown the
Lala king, Magadha, Nepala, Panchaia, Chola and others, brought in as spoil their treasury, ele-

phants, wives and horses, and made them subject to the Chalukya emperor,, Ilis junior uncle was

Sarwa-Deva, \vh 03 e descent is given at length. His preeeptor was Varesvara, disoiple ot' Trilochana,
who belonged to the line of Kalamukhas of whom Divyajnani Kasmira-deva was emperor. Advised by
his guru, Sarwa-Deva erected a Sarvvesvara temple at the Tripurantaka in Balligrama, and endowed
it. In Sk. 13 of 1098 Anantapala appears as a maha-prachanda-dandanayaka. By his order, the

manager of the vadda -ravuli -sunlca of Banavasi remitted a certain portion for the god Vishnu in
what is here called Marasihga’s Begur agrahara. Ia Sk. 108 of the same date, we kave the senior

Lala Kannada minister ior peaci and war, Bhiv anayya . The great minister Padmanabhayya was
governing Banavase. Two men named Lokarasa and Jogarasa in their own names at set up gods
Balligrame, and made grants for them in the presence of ali the principal residents. Among these
are mentioned the names of the priests of the five mathas, and the savasi of th e Baud d ha temple ,

Nagiyakka. 1 In Sk. 311 we again have A nantapalayya, who had entrusted Banavase to Govinda-
rasa, styled rana-ranga-Bhairava. Sk. 98 and 99 are elaborate records of grants made by him in
1103 and in his jurisdiction in 1113 by the Pandya king Kama-Deva. Incidentally we learn that there
were mathas and three puras in Balligave, and the names of the acharyyas at the head of the
five

former are given. Both inscriptions were- composed by the fast poet ( dsu-Jcavi), the very elever poet

under that head. Sk. 131 gives us the genealogy of Govinda. His minister for peace and war
Isvarayya-Nayaka, made a grant in 1104 for the god Narasimha ;
and the other ministers, bhatta-
guttas ,
and the king’s servants ( arasti Igal )
were to contribute certain amounts every year. Anantapala
and Govinda appear again in 1107 (Sk 192), when Trivali-bhatta, who was perggade of the great
village of Tanagundur, applied to the 32000 for land in which to dig a well for charitable purposes.

Sk. 137, of 1114, again refers to Anantapala and Govinda, from which it appears that the
latter was the former’s brother-in-law. The following account is here given of the Chalukyas.
As the original Boar raised up the earth which had been carried down to Patala, so did Taila deliver
&s if in sport the land which had fallen into the hands of foreign kings. He was succeeded by his son
Satyasraya ;
whose son Vikrama followed ;
and then the latter’s younger brother Dasavarmma.
DaSavarmma’s son Jayasimha came next, and then Jayasimha s son Ahavamalla.

Banavase in 1117, but Anantapala does not appear.

In Sk. 246 of 1123 we find a Ratuayya ruling Bauavasi. Thia inscription contains another
record of a vow. When the maha-samanta Bopparasa and his wife Siriya-Devi visited a certain

temple at the rice fields (in Bandalikke), Dekaya-Nayaka, a cowherd's son, made a vow, saying
“If the king obtains a son, I will give my head to swing on the pol e for the god Br ahma of Kondasa-
bavi." The reference is to the ho ok-swing ing festival in which a Sudra offers himself to be suspended
by a hook fastened through the sinews of the baek and swuug round, his endurance of the torture
being supposed to gratify the god.l Iu Ci. 61 we have Raya-Pandya ruling Nolambavadi and San-

ialige in 1125. Under him Pallava-Raya vvas governing the Bilichi Seventy and the Dnmmi Twelve.

A local chief named Iruga built and endowed a temple of Irugesa.

With Sxi, 99 we come to the inscriptions of Bhuldkamalla or Somesvara III. Sk. 280 meu-
tions Plavanga (1127) as his 2nd year, and Sk. 266 gives Kalayukti (1139) as his 13th year.

Sk. 100, dated 1129, contains a listof the Chalukyas, with a long panegyric of him and his fatber.
Like Vishnu whocrushed in battlo the Asura that had carried oif the earth to the infernal regions, and
brought it back, was Taila, His son was Sattiga, whose son was Vikrama, His younger brother
A
was DaSavarmma, whose son was Jayasimha. His son was Ahavamalla, whose eldest son was
Bhuvanaikamalla. The younger brother was Permmadi-Deva Vikramaditya, His palace was fiood-
ed with streams of the ichor of rutting elephants and the foam fr om the mouths of horses brought
and handed over by the kings he had subdued. The Malava, Ch6]a, Gaula, Magadha, Ahga,
Turushka, Kaiihga and Vanga kings submitted to him, otherwise he would at once have sent them
to enjoy the kingdom of the gods. His son was Somesvara Bhulokamalla, praised at leogth, who
in the course of expeditions to all parts, came to the south and encamped in Hulluni tirtha. During
a discource on dharmma, the Kadamba king Taila, whose residence was Virata-nagaii, a great
favourite of his lord, seized the opportunity to make a petition. This he did in a long speeeh,
describing the glories of Balligave and the virtues of its people. The five temples, to which were
attached the five mathas, he says were those of Hari, Hara, Kamalasana, Vitaraga and Bauddha.
He also mentions that there were three puras. He then enlarges on the merit of this Dakshina
Kedara, the eminence of its matha and gurus. These were of the Muvarakoneya-santati of the
Parvvatavali, and mention is made of Kedara^akti, Sllkantha, Somesvara and Vidyabharana, the
equal of Bharabhuti, the victor over Bauddhas, Mimamsakas and Syadvadis, a true ornament of the
Naiyyayikas. Not wishing to be distracted in his studies, he made over the business of the matha te
Vamasakti. But at the beginning of the inscription Vidyabharana is said to bave given the manage-
ment of the Kedara matha to Gautama, wkich must have been later, as appears from the conclusion.2
The king was corapletely overcome by Taila’s eloquence, and gazing with brightened eyes on the face
of the Kadamba lion, said, “ We must perform some work of merit in that temple,” and inquired

vvhat towns thero were near. On which Taila, in reply, skilfully brought to notice a grant he had him-
self made, and asked for its confirmation. This proposal the king accepted, and made the grant to

bharatia, accepting it, made it over to Gautama. The fortune of the Kedara matha, it is fiually said,

was planted through Somesvara ;


through Vamasakti it threvv out branches, spread abroad and
blossomed ;
then through Gautama it bore fruit. 1 Sh, 32 records an act of saliagamana in 1134. In

Sk. 112 two sculptors, in order to ciear some aspersion on their guild, set up an image of the god

Kusuvesvara and made it over to Gautama as attached to the Kedaresvara temple, while the towns-

people granted certain dues as an endowment for it. ,

With Sk. 290 we have the reign of Jagadekamalla. Sk. 276 gives Dundubhi (1143) as his

5th year. The inscription affirms its matha to be a branch of the Sarathi-matha and to be a
Naishtika-matha : if tha head of it is without Brahmacharyya he is to be expelled from the matha.
In Sk. 267 we have the senior Kannada minister for peace and war, Bamma-Devarasa, ruling
Banavase in 1147. Sovi-Devarasa, called Bhagavati’s warrior, was the lord of Bandanike ;
and five

gavunda brothars had a Kali-deva temple built, the goddess Bhagavati, the Seven Mothers, a
Vrishabesvara, and an image of the Sun made. Ci. 38 and 39 show us Vira-Pan dya governing
Nolambavadi from his residence in Uckchangi,

inscription,

Under him Bijjana-Deva was ruling the whole country, and Mahadevarasa was governing Banavase.
Mayidevarasa, manager of the principal customs of Banavase, being in Balligrame, delivered a dis-
course on dharmma to his courtiers, who in response expatiated on the merits of the Dakshina
Kedara and ou the eminence of the gurus of the Muvara-koneya-santati of the Parvvatavali. 01 these,
Gautama is mentioned and Vamasakti said to be his son. The fortune of the Kedara matha is said
to have been planted by Somesvara, it put forth branches and blossoms through Gautama, till its

fame was spread in ali the world by Vamasakti. 2 Taking to mind what his advisers said, he remitted

the duties on the hard areca-nut, the produce of the god Kedaresvara’s garden, and on the betel-leaves
from the garden. Sk. 108, eight years later, commences with a list of the Chalukyas. First

delivered a discourse on dharmma, taking as his text,— “ Whoso sets up but one linga, acquires a

the Devavrata-muni- in
santati, the Muvara-koneya-santati, from Kedarasakti, Srikantha, Somesvara and .... , whose disciple

With Sk. 249 of 1185 we come to the 5th year of the last Chalukya, TribhtivanamallaSome-

is applauded, and the moral is drawri tliat a word spoken with full resolve must not be broken. Our
i f last Chalukya inscription here is HI. 46, of the same reign, dated the latest known lor the

Chalukyas. Malli-Devarasa, who was ruling in Belagavartti (now Belagutti), made a grant for the

god Siddesvara and remitted certain taxes.

Nolamba-Pallnvas ^
There are four inscriptions, dating from 1048 to 1 054, relating to the Nolambas, who were
Pallavas by descent, and claim to be lords of Kanehi-piira. In HI. 107 Trailokyamalla Nanni-
Nolamba Pallava-Pennmanadi was ruling certain provinces under the Chalukyas. In Ci. 8 and 9
we have Trailokyamalla No}amba-Pallava-Permmadi-D§va placed in command of a force, with which
he put to flight Cbola’ s great army and encamped in Bamjnukur.
, Iu HI. 119 he appears ruling the
Dadirvvalige Thousand, the Ballakunda Three Hundred and Konadiyur. His minister was also
apparently called Trailokyamalla Nolamba-Permmadi. Later on, the Chajukya prince Jayasimha, as
we have already seen, had the tities Vira-No}amba-Pallaya-PermmanaJi.
A
JPandyas
The Pandya kings are identified with the hill-fort of Uchchangi (just over the northern border
of Mysore, in the south-west of the Bellary District), which became the seat of government for the

Nojambavadi Thirty-two Thousand (the Chitaldroog District). From Sk. 99 we learn that these

Pandyas were of the Chandra-vam§a or L inar race. They were originally the rulers of the Hayyo
Konkana s. and their
oountry, one of the S even capital was Sisu^ali, so called because of the courage

the children (sisu) born there. After many Pandya kings had ruled,
(kalitana ) which distingu‘shed
in that place, there arose the king Chandra, whose wife was Kammala-Devi. Their son was Kama
and his wife was Bhagala-Devi, a Rajaputri jewel. These two had a son Chandra, whose wife was
Savala-Devi, to whom was born Kama-Deva.

But previous to this the Chalukya prince Jayasimha Vira-Nolamba is said (Sk. 107) to have
made the Seven Kohkana become like bracelets ( JcanTeana to the emperor. And in Ci. 33 and 38
we have a Tribhuvanamalla-Pandya-Deva ruling Nolambavadi, among whose tities are “defeater of

the designs of Rajiga-Chola” (the ruler of Veiigi). The dates are 1083 and 1112.

The Kama-Deva above mentioned was ruling in 1113. He claims to be lord of Gokarjna-pura
and protectoTof the Konkana-rashtra. He was seated on the Pandya throne, like the nose to the
face of the Pandya line, and had the title Nigalahka-malla. Induced by an eloquent discourse deli-

vered by the eminent Sarasvata, Somesvara-paulita, 1 on a text quoted from the Siva-dhannma he ,

made a grant for the god Dakshina KedareSvara of the royal city Balligave.

Ci- 61 brings us to Tribhuvanamalla Haja-Pandya-Deva, who was ruling the Nojainbavadi

and Santalige provinces in 1125. Ci. 38 and 39 are of the time of Jagadekamalla Vira-Pandya-
Deva, 1149. Among his tities are, -—Champion cutting on both sides (parichchliSdi-gcuirfu), and
defeater of the designs of Rajendra-Chola. Sk. 300 mentions a Paudya-Devarasa, son of ...

tya-Deva, carrying olT a dancing girl from Uddare by force in 1180.

The Kalachuryas immediately succeeded the Chalukyas, whose minister Bijjana or Bijjala was
the first of the Kalachuryas who held possession of the territory dependent on Kalyana. From Sk.

then ruled, followed by the next younger brother Sankama, and he by his younger brother Ahava-
rnalla.

Sk, 123 commences with an account of the creation of the world, followed by a list of the

Chalukya kings who ruled the Kuntala country, down to Nurmmadi-Taila, “ At that time ” it then
proceeds to say “ was Bijjala king,’’ who brought into subjection the earth, from the ocean on the
south to his northern boundary the Chalukya capital. His governor of Banavase in 1159 was Kesi-
raja or Kesava-Deva, whose descent is given at length. He was the son of Holalamarasa and Durgga-
devi, and had two wives, Lakshmi-devi and Siri-devi. On his becoming angry, there were brought
under his orders Sankanamale, Santalige, Tagarachche-malla’8 territory, Gavatur, Mogala-nad, Siri-

vur, the Vanavasi-hill-fort, Kondarate, Hayve, Gutti and Hettila. One day when he was seated in

his courfc, surrounded by all the judges and great officers (many of whom are named), Recharasa
began a discourse on dharmma , in which he extolled the merit of Balipura, and urged the establish-
ment there of the god Ive^ava in a Kesavapura and its endowment. This was accordingly done, on a
tract of land to the south of Balipura, obtained from the priest of the Five Lingas set up by the
Fanijavas, and other claimants. A Kesava temple was built, of which it is said that timber and stone
were transformed to the utmost in its construction, as if striving to add to all the variety of forms
in which Brahma and had created wood and stone. * The pura in front of the temple, filled with
commodious houses, having cots in each chamber, containing the softest beds, and all manner of
vessels, was bestowed on Brahmaus. These and some further grants were made in the presence of
the representatives of the five mathas and three puras. The priests of the five mathas are named.

Reference is also made to the seven Brahmapuris. The superintendence of these and of the new
pura was vested by Kesimayya in his aradhya, the raja-guru Vamasakti, soli of Gautama, and an
ornaraeut of the Lakulagama, who was the head of the Dakshina Kedara sthana.

In Sk. 161 we have Kariya-Kesimayya, as the governor of Banavase-nad is here called, march-
ing against Bandalike. Sk. 139 shows as Padmarasa as dandanayaka of Banavase-nad when
Vama5akti's bandi (captive) was carried off. In 1162 Bijjana’8 army marched to destroy Tagarale

(Sk. 56). The same year (Sk. 102) Bijjala had a great minister Kasapayya-Nayaka, by whose
permission Bammarasa was the ruler of Banavase-nad. Bat we obtaia a glimpse of the system of
administration, for he was controlled by five lcaranams, vvlio were royal censors appointed “to see
that the Lakshmi of that Bommarasa’s goverument was iree frorn adultery,” — that is, to ensure his
loyalty, — and these were like the five senses to kiug Bijjala, “unmatched in ministerial skill, bold as
fierce lions, able in detecting frauds, superior to all opposition.’' Bammarasa and his courtiers,

United with these, were one day discoursing on dharmma and began
,
to extol the Kodiya-matha, the
Dakshina-Kedara-sthana. Among other praises, it is said to be a place for the recital of the four
vedas and their aiigas ;
a place for glosses on the Kaumara, Paniniya, S'akatayana, S’abdanu6asana
and other gramrr.ars ;
a place for glosses on the Nyaya, Vaiseshika, Mimamsa, Sankhya, Bauddha
and others the six darsanas ;
a place for glosses on the Lakula-siddhanta, the Patanjala and other
yoga-§astras ;
a place for the study of the eighteen puranas, the dharmma-sastra, all poems, dramas,
comedies and every branch of learning ;
a place where food was freely distributed to the poor, the
destitute, the lame, the blind, the deaf, story lellers, singers, drummers, fiute players, dancers, eu-
logists, the naked, the wounded, icshapanaJcas, ekctdarjdi, tridandi^ parama-hamsa and other mendicants
from all countries ;
a place for the treatment of the diseases of destitute sick persons ;
a place of secur-
ity from fear for all living things. At this juncture Bijjala-maharaya having come there in the course

of his expedition to subdue the South, and encamped in Balligave, —they all repaired to his presence,

and were recounting to him these distinguished merits of the Kodiya-matha, when Kasapayya-Na-
yaka rose, and standing in front of his maharaja with folded hands, made a petition in a speech
which is given at length. It consists of praises of the Dakshina Kedara and of Vamasakti, the exist-

ing guru of its matha, and winds up with a request that the king would there perform some endur-
ing work of merit. He accordingly made grants for the Dakshina Kedaresvara temple, as well as
for temples at Abbalur. A year later (Sk. 242) we find that Bijjala’8 son-in-law, Barmmarasa of
Bandanike, was the ruler of the Banavase country. His son Bopparasa had for wife Sinya-Devi,

daughter of the Kadainba king S'anta, and their son was Soma or Soyi-Deva. An officer under him,
named Macheya-Nayaka, — whose guru was Deyasakti of the Kalamukha sect, head of the Hiriya*
matha of Bammakur, — erected a temple with a stone tower, decorated with carvings and figures,

in Bandanike. This he dedicated to Sdmesvara, affer the name of his master, who granted endow-
ments for it, as well as some other persons. And the temple was declared to be a Brahmachari
matha. 108Sk. has already been noticed uuder the Chalukyas.

With Sk. 92 of 1168 we come to the reign of Rayamurari-Sovi-Deva. The earth (prithvi)
which of old through the stupidity of Prithu had a long time been reduced to the condition of a
for

cow, became the c.hosen erowned queen of Bijjana-Deva ; and thus rose to renown like the jewel
which, at first covered up by the sea shore, came to be the kaustiibha on Vishnu’s breast. And
like the moon rieing from the ocean, so did Soma rise out of the ocean king Bijjana. He committed
the government of all the countries attached to the treasuryof the South to the maha-s&manta Byalike-

Kesimayya or Kesava-dandanayaka, not apparently the same as the governor mentioned in Sk. 123
above. He was ruler of the Taddavadi Thousand, the Hanuhgal Five Hundred and the Banavase
Twelve Thousand. Corning on a tour of inspection through the territory under his jurisdiction, he

arrived at Balligave, and was struck with astonishment at the learning, cbarities and pious perform-
ances of the Dakshina-Kedaresvara, and saying— “ This is double of Varanasi, a hundred-fold of
Kedara, a thousand-fold of S riparvvata,” resolvod to perform there some work of merit. He there-

fore approached the head of the temple, the rajaguru-deva Vamasakti, and noted for a long time hjs
pre-eminence in all learning ;
how in grammar he was a Panini, in polity and discernment S’ribhu-
shana, in drama and the Science of music Bharata, in poetry Subandhu himself, in siddhanta Laku-

make any beaefactioa, we will accept it.” Thereuxn he made a gnut, aad obtaiaed a copp r siisana

and the transfer of the glory of the Kalachuryya-vatnH to the Kada nba-vamsa, in the persous of the

two kings Soma of those tvvo lines. Sk. 233 meutions the g weruors of Nagarakhanda and Bana-

assigned the property of Bananjigas of Balligave dying without sons, for the god Gavares vara ;
that of
those who die in the nagara, for the god Nag iresvara ;
and in all the five mathas, the three puras,
and the seven Brahmapuris, in whichever unclairaed property accrues, to the god of that quarter.
In Sk. 144 Kesimayyais invested with the title of Verggade ot' the antahpura (or feraale apart-

ments). Sk. 197 contains an elaborate account of Jarabu-dvipa, Bharata and Kuntala, which
is included in Karnnata. The Chalukyas were at first the favourites of the lady earth, but when
they went to enjoy the pleasures of heaven, the Rattas gained her favour. Taila however drove

them off, and he and his successors held possession of her down to Nurmmadi Taila. The Lakshmi
of the Chalukya kingdora then transferred her affections to Bijjala and his successors of the Kala-
churi line. “ What," says the poet, “ is it a new thing for woraen to seek after something new ? ” In
obtaining the kingdora for Bijjala and his family a principal part is claimed for Recharasa or Recha-
dandadhinatha. Having received in succession various countries from the Kalachuri emperors, he ex-
pressed a desire for Nagarakhanda and accordiugly became its ruler. Such was its prosperity under
hira that it was like a lotus, in which Banavase was like the Sii. During his government the Ka-
damba king Boppa-Deva had Bandhava-pura (Bandanike) as his royal city, and a chief narned
S'ankara erected a Jina temple for S'antinatha at Magundi. The important historical details men*
tioned in connection with this have already been noticed under the Kadambas. Sk. 245 refers to

an encounter which took place through some misunderstanding between Boppa-Deva’s followers when
he went to Esalevahalli to collect tribute and the musketeers of Maluge-Deva’s anny which was on
the march to Balligave./, In Sk, 227 we have Charuldrtti-pandita-deva, the title of the Sravaria
Belgola gurus, repairing a Pancha basti and obtaining for it a tranfer of villages originally granted

to another basti, which was probably no longer in existence. HI. 25 is the last inscription here of

the Kalachuryas, but the whole of the portion relating to thein has b een pur p oselv effaced.

Hoysalas
Most of the Hoyssla inscriptions in this volume relate to the time of B al lal g 11. But the first is

Sh. 89, very much defaccd. Then comes Sh. 64, the date of which is not ciear. It is of the time
of the' Chalukya emperor Tribhuvanamalla-Deva, and apparently of the time of the Hoysala king
Naras-imha I. An account is givan of the Hoysala lcings down to his time, but mention is first made
of Ilemmadi-arasa or Hernuna-Mandhata-bhupa, a Ganga king who was Ereyanga-Hoysala’s son-in-

law. Eyeyahga it says was a powerful righthand to the Chalukya king. Hetrampled down the Ma}ava
army„._burnt Dhara and laid it in ruins, dragged out Chola and plundered his camp or capital, broke

and ruincd Kalihga. Of his son Vishnu it is said that the world-renowned Ivoyatur, Talavana-pura
anV’ Rayarayap ira were consumed in the flamos of his glory. The king Hemma erected a Jina
31

temple, and Chamala-Devi, wife of N-aga, yoanger brother of Narasimha’s minister Tippana, made
a grant.

Here foliows the detailed accouat of the origin of tbe Ganga farnily from the Ikslivaku-vams'a as
already noticed' under the Gahgas. Then comes a list of Jaina gurus as in No. 57 down to Anantavirya,

after whom it proceeds somewhat differently from that. Then, commencing with Hermmadi-Barmma-
Deva, several Ganga kings and their vvives are mentioned. When Ereyahga-Hosyala’s son-in-lavv
Hermmadi-Deva was in the residence of Harige, ruling the Ededore-[Mandalij Thousand, he erected

a chaityaylaya in Kuntala-pura and made .grants for it in S’aka 989, to the guru Prabhachandra.
Later on, Satya-Gahga-Deva, being in the residence of Edehalli, made the Ganga-Jinalaya at the
Kuruli-tirtha, and grauted endowments for it in S'aka 1054 (? 1034) to his guru Madhavachandra.
Some other grants were also made to Balachandra.

From Sh. 12 it appears that Poysala Bitti-Deva 's general Boppana made an attack in 1120 on
Bhujabala-Ganga-Permmadi-Deva, and a battle- took place in Halasur. In Sk, 87 the servants of

the tuppacla bagal (or ghi gate) to the queen of Hoysala-Ballala-Deva (I) deposited a fu nd for the

god Ballesvara. The inscriptions of Narasimha’s time are mostly effaced.

Of those of the reign of Ba llala H


Sh. 43, 45 and 40 begin with a list of Vishnuvarddhana’s
,
rr.

conquests. In the last, a Jaina merchant named Hoysala-Goydi-S'etti was living in Ededore, pro-
moting (it says) by acts of kindness to others long life, health and wealth. One day he lieard a recita!

of the 3'iva-dharmma and was thereby moved to make a grant for the god Siddhesvara. (There seems
no doubt that S'iva worsliip in accordance with the Lingayit creed supersedexl that of Jina throughout
these parts. Several lingas have been noticed, both free-standing and engraved as symbols at the
head of inscriptions, which have been simply formed by cutting down a seated Jina into the required

shape). Ci. 73 and 77 of 1180 show the king residing at Vijayasamudram, the same as Hallavur
on the Tuhgabhadra (see Cn. 244, Vol. VI). In Sk, 145 we find Goparasa, the minister and general

of Ballala, ruling theBanavase province in 1184, with Balligrame as the capital. HI. 91 records some
regulations regarding the trade of their agrahara made by the Dravila-desa Brahmans of Kolligana-
ghatta, who were connected, it says, with Ahichchatra. The agrahara was a resort of merchants and
traders form Ayyavalege, Talumaluge, the new Dvaravati (perhaps Dorasamudra), and the four points
of the compass ;
and the regulations uow made were intended to be observed from east to west and
from south to north as far as Himavanta. A great deal of the latter part of the inspription is effaced.

Sk. 148 relates the voluntary death of a Jaina merchanfs wife by the rite called samddhi .

Sk. 105 extols Ballala by saying that on hearing the terrible sound of his twanging bovv,

Chola was dnven out of his mind, Pandya escaped by night to the summit of a mountain together
with his army, Vanga, Kalinga and Magadha, though kings over mighty hosts, fled. When lie flash-
A
ed his sword, Lala stood bewildered, Magadha trembled, Andhra was blinded, Gaula was splitin two,

the Konkana king was terror-stricken, Nepala dropped his bow, Malava in despair ffed to the desert
and feli, Chola took to liowling. Ilis minister and general was Eraga or Ereyana, who was appoint-
ed governor of the Banavase and Santalige provinces. Owing to a disconrse one day on dharmma, he
visiter! the Kedara temple and was amazad at the learning and penence of the raja-guru Vainasakti-
deva, of which a long doscription is given. In additiou to his olher accomplishments he seems to have
been a promoter of inusic and dancing. The king was at tbe time (1193) residing at Lokkignndi,
after a victorious expedition to tbe nortb. And Ereyanna made a grant for tbe god Dakshina Keda-
re^vara. The inscription was composed by Maleya, pandita of the Kavirajas (the barcis or eulogists).

The n’xt yeir (Sk. 133) Kumara-Padmi-Deva was appointed governor of the Banavase province.
32

He patronized the temple of Agnisvara afc Balipura, tlie line of whosa dehdryyas werc the Srautreya-
siddhanti Knmarasiva, liis disciple VamaSiva, and his soa Devasiva. To the latter he made a grant
for the temple, of the well-kno.vn sthilx-vritti of the city, with a fi. ager exhibited (anguli-prSkshant-

yam) forbi l luig the eatry of both forces, those of the king and those of his agents. On seeing this

work of inerit, tfikalarasa also male a grant.Sk. 186 is the inscription contaiuing au accouut of
the introduction of Brahmans to the South by Mulckama Kadamba aud the loundation of the Tana-
guudur agrahara already referred to under the Kadambas. Sh. 65 relates how savanta-Marayya
forcibly defaced a stone sasana which had been written, and set up another.

Sk. 225 contains the important statement that the Kuntala country was ruled by the nine
Nandas, the Gnpta-kula Mauryya kings ;
then by the Rattas ;
after whom the Chalukyas ruled ;

after them the king Bijjala of the Kalachuryya-vamsa ;


and then the king Ballaja of the Hoysalas.
The latter in 1204 was in Vijayasamudra (see above). A Kadamba king named Brahma was the
ruler of Nagara-khanda, in which was the splendid city Bandhava-nagara (Bandanike). A temple for
S'antinatha was created there by a merchant and the management of it was given to S'ubhachandra,

who had raised up the tirtthi of Bandanike. Nagara-khanda possessed five agraharas, the learning
of whose Brahmans is praised, as well as the merits of certain merchants and others named. Bal-
lans minister Kammata-Malla showed special favour to Bandanike, and he, with the Brahmans of
the five agraharas and a number of headmen and merchants, who are named, united in makinggrants
for the god Santinatha of Bandanike. At the top of the inscription has been inserted the statement
that Recha, and after him Kavade Boppa who was half a Recha, were the principal promoters of the
tlrttha of S'anta-Jina, the lord of Bandhava-pura.

HI. 7 describes Ballala as a sun to the darkness the Chola king, Garuda to the extended ser-
h

pent Kaliiiga, a thunderbolt to the mountain the Nepala king, a lion to the rogue-elephant the Andhra
king, a wild-fire to the forest Malava, a moon to the Chalukya lotus (causing it to close up). Uuder
his governor Malli-Deva was a chief named Savanta-Buvayya, who had received the title of Savanta
from the Chalukya emperor as a reward for capturing an elephant w4iich had escaped to the forest

and was sporting on the hilis. He made grants for the god Kuruva Ramanatha or Ramesvara of
Mora-Guruva. 1 Some other gods were also set up in the neighbourhood. And the naj-prabhu and
ali the gaudas showed the tirtha of the god Ramanatha to Hoysaua vira-Ballala-Deva and obtained
his sanction to extend the god's land to the river, and for certain other grants. Sk. 235 contains
the usual account of the rise aud genealogy of the Hoysalas, and a farther account of the governor
Malli-Deva or Kammata-Malla. In Sk. 247 he is called the mahd-va^da-Mhdri or great senior

merebant. He renewed the grants to Brahmans originally made by Sovi-Deva in Bandhavapura,


maintained by kis son Boppa, and conBrmed under the Yadu kingdom, being kept up by Malyana-
dandanayaka. IIj also erocted a temple there, and securcd the assistance of the senior queen Abhi-
nava-Ketala-mahadevi 2 in ohtaining a grant for it from the king in 1207. Two years later that queen’e

younger brother Madhava-daunayaka made a farther grant to Brahmans in Bandalike. Sk. 196

a previous grant by (the
Chalukya king) Kirttivaruyna was eonfirmed. Kuruva or Guruva is now the name of the island in the TuhgabhadrS, a
few miles south of Honnfili, which contains the temple of Ramanatha or Rftm6s'va'ra. See below, under HI. 8, for the legend

is a memorial pillar of the cieat 'a at Chikka Magadi, by the Jaina rite called satmdhi of Jakkavve,
,

wife of the renowned Bharata. The inseription contains a long eulogy of lier, partly in Sanskrit and
partly in Kannada.

In 01. 64 Ballala-Deva
A
is said to be sole ruler of the Seven-and-a-half Lakh couutry. Under
him were the Gahga kings of Asandi beginning with Vaijarasa, already brought to notice under that

head. 3h. 54 records a graut made to Brahmans by Ballala on the occasion of his paying a visit

to the dsrama of Durvasa ou the bank of the Tuhgabhadra. But the contents of the inscription are

peouliir and cannot be relied on, being taken only from a manuscripfc copy in possession of the people
of the place. 3h. 5 begins with an aecouut of the Gahgas, followed by eulogy of the Hoysalas down
to Ballala. His generals are represented as carrying only canes in their hands and issuing peremp-
tory orders to the Chola, Kaliuga, Chera and Pancha la kings. Madhusudana, a descendant from
Rakkasa-Gauga’3 general Goggi, had a temple of Gaugesvara built in the name of his father.

Ci. 72 brings us to the reign of Narasimha II, uprooter of the Magara kingdom, establisher o"
the C hola kingdom ,
sole ruler of the Seven-and-a-half Lakh country. The envoys of Simkana, La|&
and Gaula are represented as struck with admiration at his power and trembling to incur his emnity^.
aaying to one another, “ See these elephants are what Magarega (or the Magara king) gave in war
;
;
thes? are the elephants Chola smt these rutting elephants are what Kadava-Raya seized from
Pandya.” Saying to himself “ Why I ara called master of elephants when there are no troops of ele-
phants of which I ara master”, —
Narasimha marched without stopping for a hundred gavn~
the king
das and overthrowing formidable enemies in the east, captured the hundred (or hundreds of) ele-
,

phants with which Magara came against him, and brought them in with his horse. Then follows au
A
account of tha Gahga king s of Asand i as above. A Gauda
under them erected a temple and endowed
it. Rr nt the end of the inscription is an iuteresting statement that a dispute had arisen regarding
bound tries, about which the headmen went in a body to the king, who had pitched his camp outside
Silagodu. He and the five ministers then gave the following decision : —The boundary of the two nads
Nonambavadi and Gahgavadi for Gahgavadi,— Guliyakallu, the Hadangi hili, Hakiyadone, Taliya-
katta ;
the di vision runs along the field bouudary of Bidarahalli.

Hl. 8 records a grant by the king for the god Ramanatha of Mora-Guruva. It also contains
the lege :dary account of the formation of this islaud in the Tuhgabhadra, called Kuruva (the
above Guruva) which is about five miles south of Honnali, opposite to the point where the Hire
Halla stream enters the river from the west. A
Boya woman named Dharani-boyiti, spreading ouft
reed-grass on the ground and plaiting it together, produce d a mora (or winnowing basket) 1 in the
middle of the Tuhgabhadra. There she and a Bova named Vanaraja-Rama took up their abode ia
a pandal of reed-grass which they put had been Matanga-rishi's dsrama. The period
to the shed that

of flood in the Tuhgabhadra coincided with the time of the woman’s delivery, and on seeing the
river coming down threatening to overhelm them, they placed that mora in the middle. Thereupon
the Tuhgabhadra, out of respect for a devoted wife who had given birth to a child, divided, ani
flowed on leaving them safe on the lsland thus formed. This became celebrated as the holy kshe-
tra of the god Ramanatha, to whom grants were made by the Sinda kings of Belagutti and other
local authorities. Ci. 52 shows the king residing at Panchaja in Chola-uad in 1233. Having
slain many kings and being sole ruler over all the earth as far as the ocean, was it in order to
attack them iu the rear, it asks, that Narasimha pursued after Kadava, Magara and Pandya ?
It was because they fled for fear of being caught by him, Yama for the same reason hiding himsolf
and the moon btanding ready with its deerS as if to stamp it in the middle of their backs.
1
It is in the shape of a shovel or scoop, but much wider.
3
According to Hindu belief the marks on the moon represent a deer. The moon was ready to help the king as he was of
tW
Lunar race.

Sh, 87 is a siugle iuscription of the tirao of SomeSvara, who was residing at Kannanur, which

is near 3'riraagam. Tlie Ganga tities are here applied to Visbnuvarddhana

With Sh. 61 and 62 we come to the reign of Nar asimha III. The stone is a memorial to a

man who feli in defending Kadali when it was attacked. His wife, it says, gave arm and haud and
went to svarga. Tkis means that she performed sahdgamana and was burnt with her husband’s
body. The masti-kul (for mahA-sati-kal ) which commemorate snch sacrifices always liave a post en-
graved on them with an arm and hand projecting from it. The proper explanation of this symbol
has not been satisfactorily obtained. HI. 11 says that a chief named Ganga-Perumale-i eva had
foeen to Dorasamudra and returned to the Hole Hoimur nad. He made a grant for the god Kama-
eatha of Mora-Kuruva. In HL 90 the same chief is described as plunderer of the Chola camp
{or capital;, and as lord of Koliganagatta-vritti in Pandya-nad, where he appears to be ruling.
Koliganagatta was an agrahara called Cholamahadevipura, Sh. 78 records a grant for the god

Narasimha of Kudali, the Southern Varanasi, at the junction of the Tunga and Bhadra.

Sh. 19 goes on to the reign of Balla la III. The king’s signature to the grant is Malaparol-
ganda. Sh. 68 is of much intereat. It relates that after th e Turaka war, on the occasion of his
son vlra-Ballala-Raya returning from Dilji (that is, Delhi, whither he had been taken as ahostagejsy
•fche Musalmans), and entering the city, the 6th of May 1313, the king remitted certain taxes for the
god Ramanatha of Kudali. HI. 76 shows that Nem atti (now Nyamati) was an agrahara in 1314-

HI. 117 States that Sankiya-sahani, brother-in-law of the k ng’s senior home minister, marched i

Against Basava-Deva of Chandavur below the Ghats. He destroyed the Tujuvas but was apparently
mortally wounded in the battle o p the Ghats, and bathing in the ? Dovadana-tirttha, he went to the
world of Vishna. In Sh- 69, dated 1320, the king is boasted tobe a terror giving fever to Cbola,
Majava, Gaula and Gurjjara ;
a Visbnuvarddhana, sun and emperor of the South, Madhava or Ma-
danna, who had received fayour from the gfeat minister Bembeya-dannayalca, together with the
sixty farmers and the hundred and twenty temple pr ests, made a grant for the god Hama (of Kudali)
The inscription was composed by the kavisvara Bramraa-deva. Ci. 65 mentions an attack by
Gahgu Selar, who is called the son of B :
ra-Bakkanna-Wodeyar. The date is given as S'aka 1000'
Vikrama. But this does not correspond in any way and must be quite wrong. An inscription at
Belur, dated 1397, calls Ganga Salar the Turulca of Kallubarige, and says he burnt the gopuraof the
Belur temple gateway. I have assum 'd that this was the sam *, the fo under pcrhaps of the line of
Bahmani Sultans of Kalburga, and assigned it to 1340 A.D.

Sindas
The Sindas gave their name to the Sindavadi proviuce, which extended over parts of the Shi-
moga, Chitaldroog, Bellary, Dharwar and Bijapur Districts. It is mentioned as far back as 750
(See Mj, 36, Vol. VI), or even in the 5th century (see Kd. 162, Vol. VI). The mscriptions of
the Siuda3 in this volume are nearly ali confi ned to the Honnali taUiq , where their chief city was
Belagavartti or Belagavatti, now Belagutti . Their origin is related in Hh 50 as follows From
the U iion in love of S'iva and Sindhu (the name of the river ludus), was born a son with great glory,

and in proof thereof, Bbava, the husband of Gii ija., gave him the name Saindhava. saying, ;t
Be a
king in the earth,” and appointed the king of the serpents for his protection. Being his son, the
husband of Gauri and eating that fruit, the child grevv. And Paramesvara directed the
gol less Malati to assist his son in war, and gave him a second name of Nidudol (long-armed) Sinda.
Karahala being (ap pointed) his cou ntry, he sub lue I ali oneinie? and becamo the king of that land.
In HI. 20 the story is given thus : — On Sura-Sindhu (the river of the gods, the Ganges) obtaining
union with Bhava (S'iva), a sin was born, whose name was Haravita and Saindhava- vara, with the
35

great king of the serpents as his protector. Karahada being (appointed) his territory, he shook and
subdued his enemies and became master of the world.

The tities of the kings include, — maha-mandalesvara, lord of Karahata-pura, obtainer of a


boon froiu the goddess Malati (or Malachi), distinguished by the blue flag ( nila-dhvaja ), having t*i

sounds of the mediali and turyya, of the Phaniraja-vamsa (the race of the king of serpents)* having
the tiger and deer crest ( vydglira-mriga-ldnchchhanam ), ruling many countries included in the Xnra-
hada Four Thousand. 2 They also have the tities (Hl. 98, 2S) Sinda-Govinda and Patala-ch ikra-
T artti. The list of countries forming the territory of the Sindas of Belagavatti is unfortunatcly

somewhat defaced. But in Hl. 50 vve are told that the following were the nads won by his owu
arm or inherited from his ancestors by
" Isvara-Deva in 1180 : — the Edevatte 70. the *

ster of Chilukya Tribhuvanamalla, was governor of Banavase. A grant was made for a temple, to

Deva. HI, 27 and 23 relate to iights with Singi-Deva, the king of Santalige. HI. 45 informs
us that the Hoysala king Ballala had appointed Todapille-dannayaka as governor of Belagavartti-

nad in 1175. Sk. 206 of 1176 shows th e Kalachuryya s in possession of the country, and Vikra-

maditya-Deva, probably a Sinda, as go vernor of Banav ase. In Hl. 50 of 1180 their minister Kava-
nayya’s youuger brother Madeva-dandanayaka was the governor, descended from Sankarasa of the
Sagara country. A detailed account is given of the Sindanvaya. HI. 46 of 1189 shows the Chaln-

kyas a gain in possession. In HI, 37, 38, 40 and 28 we haverecords of persistent attacks made
in 1196 and 1197 by Uma-Dev i, who must have been the nue ^nr __p( Ht^sal^. Ballnla ^

II. lior foree is said to have been defeated on each occasion, but she s 'ems to have obtained a lofc

ofbooty. In 1198 the Hoy sajas were again in the ascendant (Sk. 315) and continuedso. In
] 208 we find their minister Tudapille-dannayaka stili in office (HI. 25). In 1215 the Yadavas of
Devagiri are in 44), and Mayi-Deva was governor of Banavase. Also in 1216
possession (HI.

(Hi. 48). But in 1222 Vanka-ravuta had been appointed (HL 20). In 1232 Honna-Bomrai-
Setti was in that office. The Sindas must have had troublous times in keeping in with so many
changing overlords. But none are mentioned after this. A battle took place in 1245 at Kudali be-
tween ? Boppula and the Sevuna general S'ridhara (HI. 54)- The Sinda king had now taken up
his r esidence in Kallis e. In 1247 anocber battle was fought at Nematti between Dekarasa and the
mini 3 ters Medimaya and Sridhara (HI. 55). On this occasion Echaya, son-in-law of the Sinda
king Bira-Deva’s Patta-sahani Gahgeya-sabani, made good the pledge he had taken at a council of
war before the whole court that he would drive off the enemy in confusion, in consequence of wliich

he had been presented with the umbrella which was the stake.

Sevunas (or Yadavas)


The line of kings called by various writers the Yadavas of Devagiri, it seems more correct to desig-

nate as the Seunas or Sevunas, This is the navne applied to them by the Hoysalas, who call them-
selves the Yadavas. The title Yadava-Narayana, again, used by the Sevuna kings, is also adopted
by the Hoysalas, and botb lines claim to be lords of Dvaravati-pura, —

says the birth of the Yadava-vamsa was as follows : —To relieve the excessive burdens of the vvorld

The inscriptions of thes) Sevuna kings in this volumc range from the time of Singhana in 1215

sons of Nimbi-Raja ;
also Chatta’s son Chaunda .2 Those two ministers were in their own royal City
Betur, governing the Nbnambavadi province in 1268, and Chaundarasa made a grant for the god
BilleSvara of the agrahara Dakshina Bhaskarapuri or Dakshinaditya-nagari, which was Kogilftr,

surrounded by terrible forests, the resort of wild elephants.

The remaining inscriptions are of the reign of Ramachandr a or Rama Deva. Ci. 24 recorda
the death in battle in 1280 of Chaundarasa, who has the tities raya-dandanatha and pSsani-IIanuma .
He feli in fighting against Muramadi-Singeya-Nayaka at Doravade in K urugodu -nad. For it is

of the cradle in which he carried his son, and he and his wife Yellu-baCs son Gane£vara and his wife
Botnmayi, together in conjugal affection, entered the fire on the field of battle and gained svargga.

The earliest of the Vijayanagar inscriptions are of the reign of Bukka- Raya. Sk. 285 of 1308
is interesting and important. It records the establishment of an agrahara by the king’s great mini-

ster Ma dhava, regarding whom some remai*kabie details are given. It is moreover dated in the
S'dtav(iham sVi/ca, the only inseription I have met with so dated, clearly testifying, it would seem, to
a knowledge of the origin of thu S'alivahana era, and also of S'atavahana rule in ancient times over
the part of tho country in whieh this inseription is fonnd. After the invocations, J amadag nya is

praised, who turned back the ocean and conquered the earth, and slaying the Kshatras who were filled

with pridefrom enjoying it, made it as far as encircled by the oeean the possession of the Brahmans.

Thea follows the mention of the king Bnkka, whose fame was proclaimed as far as the Southern,
eastern and we3tern oceans. His minister, distinguished for policy and courage, was Madhava, who
was the son of Chaunda, an austere ascetic Brahman of the Angirasa-gotra, Through the astonish-
ing favour of his gura Kasivilasa, Madhava gained celebrity as a S’aiva. By his masterful energies
he subdued this world and the next, and was speedily the conqueror of how many countries on the
shores of the Western Ocean. He clea’ed and made plain the ruined path of the upcmishads , whicU
was overgrown and dangerous from the serpents the proud advocates of evil doctrines ;
so that

thoush the abode of Brahma is so far, he was ever helping the worthy to go there without a guide,
and was praised by the wise as the guru who establislied the path of the upanishads. Bukka*Baya t
on mounting the great throne of the new Vijayanagara whieh was like the principal jewel in the

middle of the pearl necklace the Tungabhadra, that encircled the Hemakuta mountain as if it wero
the throat of the lady earth, committed the governmcnt as far as the Western Ocean to his minister
Madhava. And he, in order that his administra tion might he without trouble, on the advice of the

S'iva guru Kasivilasa KriyaAakti, worshipped his favourite lihga Tryambakanatha by means of daily

special ceremonies and by a number of rites and practices as prescribed in the Saivdmmya. Then»
in order to complete the great vow whieh he had commenced with special rites a year before in
accordance with the directions of the S'iva-sandliyd, he requested the king’s permission to make the
grant of a viliago, but explained that it must be one acquired from his own funds. He accordingly
purchased Muchchundi 1 and its two hamlets in Nagarakbanda, situated itis said in his own Faghteen-
mandala country, of whieh the chief place is Cbandrakuta-pura. And forming it into80 shares, he bc-
stowed them on Kasmtr Brahma ns, pre-eminent by their virtues and the country of their biith, tra-

vellers to the farthesfc. point of the GhdrdijanUjci-aticharandmnaya. The Sasana was composed by
the learned Phanisitu, son of Visvanatharyya, and written out by Lahideva-bhatta, son of Rama-
deva of tho Sarngafava Kathas. The inseription whieh follows (Sk. 282) is the dced of sale for

the villages. They were sold for 200 varaha, five times the value of the annual rent, and a proserit

of 18 cloths for the representatives of the 18 kamnanas of tbe Gutti kingd om 3 of the Banavase
Twelve Thousand nad.

A
kingdom (Sk. 313). In the sanie year
great minister Mallafljp-Odevar was carrying on the Araga
a numb r of gaudas
made a grant for the god Ramesvara of Kurava, and established a pura for the
go 1, which they named Ramapura (HI. 6)* I Q Sk. 241 we have an account of Bandanike»
beautiiul as Amaravati, an admired ornamsnt to the Banavase-nad, which was like the face to the

Kuntala country, that represented the kuntala or curis of the lady the ocean-girdled earth. Ba-
chappa-V adeyar, who was on the throne of Gove, made grants for the temple of the goddess Banna-
of Bandunike. The inscription winds up with what appears to be some fragment of a s'hala-mahdt~
mya, relating how the goddess wandered about in the forest in PAudya-mandala, and coming from
Kod, paid a visit to (the goddess) Brahmani, and then came to bear witness along with those who
attended the car-festival in Bandalike. On HI. 71 Vira- Vas anta- Madhava-Ray a is described as
destroyer of the Turaka army, reducer of the Seven Konkanas to dust, plunderer of Kadamba, pro-
tector of the people ot Kadamba-pura, lord of Gove-pura. His son B achana-Ra ya, with the epithets,
the Ibmiini glory, Giridurgga-malla, setter up of Konkana, was 396 established in the Ka.-
in 1

damba*Raja’s throne, ruling over Chandragutti, Banavase, Konkana, Rahgin i and all the other
kingdoms. Bnllarasa’s son A nantaraja grants a number of taxes, which are specified, for the god
Balinatha of Holagundi-pura in P andya>nad.

Sh. 70 is the first of Dev a-Ray a’s inscriptions. Under his orders Vit hthhanm a-Odeyar was
ruling the Araga kingdom in 1409. A grant was made to Venkanna-bhatta, reciter of the puranjt
before the god Ramanatha of Kudali, which is the Southern Varanasi and the great Prayaga at the
confluence of the Tunga and Bliadra. Sh. 30 States that in 1413, when Yere-Lakke-Nayaka was
ruling the Dummi and Banfir nads, he had a great forest near Bankiyapura (now Benkipur) cleared,

and built there two villages named Narasimhapura and Lakshmipura, with a tank, He also grant-

ed a number of taxes and the transit duties of Bankiyapura, also called Vankipuri, for the god
Laksbmi-Narasimha. Sk. 252 is a memorial of the rite of sati and ,
its observance seeras to have
been unusually prevalent during the Vijayanagar period. Sk. 37 is another. It informs us that
Virupa-danayaka was in Chandragutti, ruling the Gove Gutti kingdom in 1417, when a certain Rama^
Gauda seems to have expired in his presence. Irugapa-Vodeyar took notes of the occurrence and sent
(? the body) from Gutti to Harika, where Bama-Gauda's wife performed sahagarnana and was burnt
with her husband’s body. In 1420 Bachana-Vodeyar’s younger brotber Mallappa-Oder was governing
Gutti-durgga fSk. 288).

Sk 93 ofr 1422 shows Deva-Raya’B son V iiava.-Rava on tbe throne. Bayichoya-danuayaka’s


son was governor. A priest named Bulli-deva, who secms to have been a Jahgama, died, and
his three wives gave his body to the tomb. Nothing is said in this case of their giving up their lives
at tbe same time, and this is not enjoined by the Lingayit creed,

With Sk. 40. of 1430 we have Vijaya-Raya’s son Deva-Raya (in Sk. 240 called Immadi-
Devadlaya) as king ;
and the treasurer Arasappa’s son Ilandiya-Raya was governor of the Gove

Chandragutti kingdom. Sh 71 of 1431 gives an account of Ilayanna-Odeyar, who was govcn-ning, in

He was descended from Bukka-Uaya’s minister Baichapa, wkose son was Maugappa, whose son again,
famous as the king of Mahislimati, was Baichapa, whose son was Rayanna. In return for the chhatra

and other works he had cstablished, the farmers and subjects of his two nads conferred upon him
Daunayakapura ,
free of ali taxes, with ali its revenues, details of which are given. And shares were

also provided for 20 Brahmans. The grant was made in the presenco of ali the gods of Kudali,

which in addition to being described as the Southern Varanasi and Prayaga, is said to be the original

Harihara, at the contluence of the Tunga and Bhadra. In 1442 the son of the Kadamba Soyi-De-

With Sk. 234 we come to the time of K rishna-Raya, S h. 1 cousists of copper plates giving his

pedigree. From Chandra arose in succession Budha, Pururava, Ayu, Nahusha. Yayati and Turvasu.

In that line there was the king Tirnma, famous among the Tuluva kings, whose wife was Bevaki.

Their son was Isvara, to whom aud his wife Bukkama was born Narasa. Quickly damming up the
Kaveri when in fnll flood, he crossed over and seized the enemy alive in battle, and taking possess-

io of him and of his capital, made Sriraugapattana (Seringapatam) his own abode. Having conquer-
«id Chera, Ohola and Pandya, as well as the proud lord of Madhura, the fierce Turushka, the Gaja-

pati king and others from the bank of the Ganges to Lanka, and from the eastern to the westem
;

mountains he imposed his commands upon all kings. In RameSvara and other holy places he from
time to time bestowed the sixteen great gifts. From Tippaji and Nagala-Devi were born to king
Narasimha the sons Vira-Nrisimha and Krishna-Raya. The former, seated on the jevvel throne in
Vijayanagar, by his fame and policy putting to shamc Nriga, Nala and Nahusha, attracting all hearts
to himself, ruled from Setu to Sumeru and from the eastern to the western mountains. All mantier of
gifts did he make in Kanakasada, in the temple of Virupaksha, in Kalahasti, Venkatadri and Kanchi,

in S'ri^aila, S’ona4aila, Harihara, Ahobala, Sangama, S'riranga, and Kumbhakona, in Nandi-tirtha,

Nivritti, Gokarna, Rama-setu and all the other holy places in the world. Havir.g ruled to the full

unopposed, this king of the earth ascended to svarga , as if to rule the kingdom of the sky. Might-

ier even than him, the king Krishna-Raya then bore up the earth on his shoulders as if a iewelled
epauktte. As though in order that tbe great gifts (Irahmdndci, svarna-MSru and others) which he

had bestowed might bc long enjoyed, he would stay the cliariot of the sun and provide resting places
for the gods, he erected pillars, stretehing like mountain peal<s into the sky, filled with tbe accounts

of his victorious expeditions to every point of the campass and with the names of bis tities. In
Kaiichi, S'riSailn, S'6nacbala, Kanakasabha, Veiikatudii and other places did be again and again

bestow tbe great gifts prescribed in the sastras. He was seived by Ahga, Vanga, IC-alinga and other
Icings, and shone in the power of good fortune ard tbe fullness of fame Irem the lastern to tbe

western mountains and from tbe extremity ot Hemachala to Setu. On the npplication of Tippa-

soma, son of the Kandhachara Brahman, the minister Madappa, he granted to VisveSvara, a
highly esteemed teacher, the village of Bharularipalli, in the country hctween the Tui ga and the
Bhadra called Yc i at ore, in the Honnnr-sime of the Shirahga kingdom. The lasana was composed
by Sabhapati. Sk. 84 and 85 are similor inscriptions, tbe latter also by Sabhapati, recording
41

grants to Narayana-yatindra of the Kudali Arya-matha, and to Vyasatirtha-yatindra of the Madhva-


charya creed, disciple of Brahmanyatirtha. 1

Sadasiya-Raya's inscriptions begia with Ci. 76, ia which his agent Ramarajodeyar grants the
local barbers’ tax to a barber named Ko .. .. HI 9 is a grant for the god Ramesvara of Kuruva, in
the middle of the Tnngabhadra, In Ci. 62. Rama-Deva is described as the supreme king, master of
Kuntala, the middle region, 126,000 yojanas in extent, of Jambu-dvipa, and lord of the throne of
Vidyanagari, which Harihara-maharaya built and consecrated in the name of Vidyaranya-sripada,
who was in the form of the Virupaksha-linga, the master of Pampa on the bank of the Tungabhadra.

Sh. 83 of S'aka 1510 ( A.D 1587) brings us


. to the time of Ven katapa ti-Deva-Raya and pro-
yides an account of his pedigree.2 In the descent from Chandra (the left eye of Hari), Budha,
A
Pururava, Ayu, Nahusha, Yayati aud Puru, was born Bharata. In his line was S'antanu, fourth
from whom was Yijaya, from whom was Abhimanyu, and from him Nanda was eighth
Parikshit.

from him, ninth from whom was Chalikka, seventh frotn him Raja-Narendra, tenth from him Bijja-
Jendra, and third from him Hemmadi-Raya, the ofMayapuri, who prost ated himself before
lord

Murari. Fourth from him was Tata-Pinnama, from whom was born the capturer of seven forts in one
day, Soma-Deva, whose son was Raghava-Deva, from whom came Pinnama, lord of Araviti-nagari,
whose son was Bnkka, who firinly established the kingdom of Saluva- Nrisimha. Bukka married
Ballambika, and their son was Rama-Raja. Though it was protected by Sapada’s army of 70,000
A
Sindh horse, he subdued the Adavani3 hill-fort in battle, and put to flight Kasappudaya, who vied
with Indra in power, He also toolc the lofty Kandanavoli-durga, 4 and drank the water from the feet
of Hari there, through his faith escaping harm although his kinsmen had put poison into it. Rama-
Raja’s wife was Lakkambika and their son was S’ri-Ranga-Raja, His wife was Tirumalambika,
who bore to him in succession the sons Rama-Raja, Tirumala-Raya and Vefikatadri. Rama-Raja
destroyed ali his enemies and ruled the circle of the world, havin g Vehkatadri as his helper. Tiru-

*One of my pandits (Venkataramanachlrya) has supplied the following account of Vyasatirtha, which is horne out by a little
work called Vyasa-vijaya. Brahmanyatirtha was the head of the Abbur matha near Channapatna. A vvoman whose hus-
band was dying, was preparing to becomea sati, hut being dissuaded by her friends, came to Brahmanyatirtha for his
advice. He blessed her that she should continue a wife and bear two sons, of whom give me, he said, the elder, and live
with the younger. On returning horne she was surprised to find her husband revived, and according to the sage’s predic-
tion she in course of time bore two sons. The elder was brought up in his matha by Brahmanyatirtha, who in the seventh
year consecrated him, giving him the name Vyasatirtha, and sent him to Mulbagal, where he studied under ST-ipadScharya
for twelve years. After this he and his gurus went to Panduraoga and bathed in the Bhimarathi, and lie set out on a pil-
grlmage to the holy places in the north. On his return he went to 8'rirangam, where some dispute arose about his admis-
sion, and he fixed a space for Vaislinavas. He also had the large VySsasamudra tank made on the Mysore and Kadapa
border. After this he was for twelve years at Tirupati, where the guru of the Vyasaraja matha is even now entitled to
oertain privileges in consequence. He hecame the author of the following important works on the Dvaita pliilosophy
l&tparya-chandrilcd, Nyayamrita and TarTca-tdndava, Eventually he went to Anegondi (or Vijayanagar). "Wliilp there, the
king was warnedof an evil mfuhtirta (a period of 48 minutes) approaching, and advised to put some one else on tlie throne
for that time. Not knowing whom to choose, the king sent out his state elephant with a garland, which the animal
presented to Vyasatirtha. The latter was not enamoured at the prospect, and said he was only a mendicent it must be ;

a mistake. But on being urged, he hid himself in a cave, and the elephant being sent out again, again took the garland to
him at the cave. He could not any longer deny the divine summons, aud so for the time of the evil muhurta was appointed
to the throne. But in order both to make manifest the danger and to escape it, instead of sitting on the throne, he threw
bisascetic’s robe on it, which immediately burst into flame and was burnt. The danger being thus averted, he took his seat,
and in'the short time left him signed grants of land to the Brahmans who had anointed liim. (Some of thesj grants, it is

said, are stili to be met with '.) He


ended his days at Auegondi, and his vrinddvana or tomb is at a spot called Nava-vrind-
Svana, on an i «land in the Tungabhadra about half a mile from that place.

mala was then anointed to the throne, and repeatedly made gifts of gold, tula-puruslui and others,
as vvell as minor ones, in Kanclii, SVhahga, S'eshachala, Kanakasabha, Ahobaladri and other places.
He was succeeded by his son Sri-Ranga-Kaya, bom from Vegalamba, who established bimself at
Uddagiri, and baving conquered Kondavidu, Vinikonda-pura and other fortresses, took up his resid-
ence in Peuugonda-puri, being anointed to the throne by chief Brahmans. When he went to the feet

of Murari (or died), his younger brother Venkatapati-Deva-Raya established the throne of the empire
in Suragiri, being anointed by Tatayaryya, the guru of hia own gotra, and other chief Brahmans.
Immediately after his accession he subdued the Yavanas, driving back Malik-Ibrahim in despair to
his house, and thoroughly beating Muhammad-Shah (Kutb-Shahi kings of Golkonda, see Ep. Ind. IV»

served as door-keepers by the Kambhoja, Bhoja, Kajinga, Karahata and other kings, and by his own
authority held possession of the throne of Karnata, having destroyed all his enemies from Setu even
to Himadri. fle made a grant of two villages to Malla-Jyosya. The Sasana was composed by Krishna-
kavi Kainakoti, 1 grandson of Sabhapati.

Some account of these kings was given in Vol. VI, Here we find certain details of their genea-

logy in Sh. 2. The line begins with SadaSiva, whose son was S'ankendra, whose son was the great
Venkata, his valour an adamantine armour to the Karnata country. He was a diamond elephant-

goad to the rutting elephants the bounding Tau]ava kings, a sun to the darkness the Kiratas, a
boundary mountaiu to stop the great ocean of Mlechchhas ever seeking to overflow the South in vic-
torious expeditions. His son was Bhadra, whose son was Virabhadra. He was a help to the raja-

dhiraja Vehkatadri (Vehkatapati-Raya II), being to him like along right arm, and he gave protection

to the Southern kings alarmed by the great army of the Patusaha (the Adil-Shahi king of Bijapur).
Their title3 were Yedava-Murari, Kote-kolahala, establisher of the pure Vaidikadvaita-siddhanta.
Farther steps can be added from Sh. 29 and other inscriptions, but it seems better to give the
following list of the kings taken from my Gazetteer of Mysore, II, 432.

1. Chaudappa-Nayaka, son of Hulibailu Basappa 1499—1513


2. Sadasiva-Nayaka, son of 1 1513—1545
3. Sankanna-Nayaka I, son of 2 1545—1558
4. Sankanna-Nayaka II, younger brother of 3 1558—1570
5. Ratnaraja-Nayaka, son of 3 1570—1582

Vrom other grants it appears that Kfimakftti was the name of Sabhapati’s son.
43

6. Venkatappa-Nayaka T, younger brother of 5 «. 3582 — 3 629


7. Virabhadra-Nayaka, grandson of 6, and son of Bhadrappa-Nayaka 1629 — 1645
8. S'ivappa-Nayaka, grandson of 4, and son of Siddappa Nayaka 1645 — 1660
9. Venkatappa-Nayaka II, younger brother of 8 . . 1660 — 1661
3 0. Bhadrappa-Nayaka, son of 8 .. 3663 — 3 663
13. Somasekhara-Nayaka I, younger brother of 10 .. 1663 — 1673
32. Chennamaji, widow of 3 3 •• 3671- — 1697
33. Basappa-Nayaka I, adopted son of 12 .. 1697 — 1714
34. Somasekhara-Nayaka II, son of 13 .. 1714—-1739
15. Basappa-Nayaka II, nephewof 14, and son of Virabhadra-Nayaka 1739 — 1754

17. Virammaji, widow of 15 .. 1757—1163
18. Somasekhara-Nayaka III, adopted son of 17 ..

Sk. 255 ^ and 55 are of the time of Sadasiva-Nayaka, in the latter of which he
^
is said to be

protecting the Araga country. HI. 9 informs us that he had made a grant for the god Bamanatha
of Kuruva. HI. 83 is of the titne of Virabhadr a-Nayaka. son of Bhadrappa-Nayaka, and grandson
of Venkatappa-Nayaka. From HI. 82 it would appear that he had a minister of his own name.
Sh. 2 telis of his Brahman miuister Ramakrishna, to whom the king gave five villages, which he in
turn made over to Brahmans. With Sk. 27 begin the grants of w ho, as
Sh. 81 informs us, was the sonof S'ivappa-Nayaka, grandson of Siddappa-Nayaka, and great-grand- !D
son of S'ankanna-Nayaka. Sh. 28 is a grant to the Balikoppa matha, freeing from transit dutien
the ioads of 50 of the pack bullocks employed in its Service. A list is given of the articles to be loaded,
namely, areca-nut, pepper, fringed silk cloths, dried cocoa-nuts, grass, husked rice, unhusked rice,
salt, tamarind, jaggory, oil, ghi, baskets, ... catechu, tobacco, cloths &c. The colour and age of the
bullocks were to be registered at the thdnas of Ikkeri, Durgga, Vasudare (Vastara), Sakkarepattana,
Kamandurgga, the hobali below the Ghats, and the custom-house at Chandavara. These seem to
indicate the boundaries of the kingdom. Sh. 3 is his grant of an wribali to the boatmen of the ferry
at Simoge, who were allowed to take fees from passengers, but were required to remain under the
orders of the Simoge fort and provide harigdls (or basket boats) for the Service. of the palace as
might be required.
The succeeding grants are by his widow Chennamaji, — Sk, 213, 82, 79 and Sh 17. The
third is an interesting specimen of the style of official orders. It begins with the words nirupct-prati
(copy of order) ,
with date and signature, and ends with nirupa, bandu (the order stops), followed by
the names of the local officials. A man applied for an umbali for bimself and an endowment for a
matha erected by his father, on the ground that during the oppression of the Mogals he had erected
cattle-folds at his own expense, and taken great pains to protect the cattle.

Sh. 29 is a grant by Basavappa-Nayak a. son of the above Chennamaji. The concluding vers-
es are some quotation addressed to Guha, and say that wherever a jogisvara once performs the
worship of S'iva-lihga, there all holy places abide for ever. A single gift made through love of Hara,

with faith in S’iva, frees from sin and procures mohsha.

Sh. 128 brings us to Somasekhar a-Nayaka II . He made a grant for a herdsman who
killed a tiger that had been infesting the Balaur pass. In Sh. 7 is an account of the erection of
the Basavana-vaddu (or dam) on the Tunga for his father-in-law Nirvanaiya. Sh- 98 is a grant
to Raghurajatirtha-svami of the Kudali stone matha.

HI. 94 is of the time of Basappa-Nayak t II. Sk. 209 refers to Siddappa-Nayaka, perhaps
a
minister. Kodihalli flasavappa seems to have beheaded a Mancha-Barmma who was commifcting
44

lawless acts, and for whose avrest alone orders had been issued. For this it would appear he
must liave been put into confinement pending the enquiry, and be claims compensation for tbe time
his land was thrown out of season. A refusal alreacly given of this petition was confirmed, with a
remark that petitions of this kind from the countiy for payment of money are not to be made. But

\
the next year, S 6 m as ekara : Nay ak a III, in, Sh. 210 on the advice of Sivalingappa, probably his guru,
granted him an umlali. Each of these orders is called a vale, that is ole, a palmyra-leaf book ;
and
ends with the statement that it consists of 1 vale , leaf or page.
A
Scinte Benn ur
An account of these chiefs was given in Vol^VI. We have here a few inscriptions relating to
them. Sfo. 10B refers to a Hire-Rangapp a-Nayaka. It is not ciea r if he belon gs here) Ci. 62
describes them as of the Puvala-vamsa, and mentions Hanumi*Nayaka’s sons Billappa-Nayaka and
Kengap a-Nayaka. They admitted as hereditary the claim of one Linganna to the offices of sena-
bova, jyotisha, and purohita in ali the villages of the Sante-Bennur-sim e, belongingto the Uchchan gi-
vente. In Ci. 67 Kengappa-Nayaka makes a grant to a tumbler. Sb 107 has Hire Hanu- f

mappa-Nayaka’s son Rangappa-Nayaka. It is not certain that he belongs to Sante Bennur. Ci- 42
(

brings us to Mumma^i-IIanumapip a-Nayaka. Ci. 47 and 48 are in Mahratti . HI. 34 contains


a conlused account, in which the following succession appears
son was ; — Hire-Hanumappa, whose
?Tula-Hanumappa, whose son was Imnaatji-Hanumappa, whose grandson was Kengappa, whose son
was Basavapp a.

Bijapur
The Adii Shahi kings of Bijapur were descended from a prince said to be a son of the Ottoman
Sultan Amurath or Murad, and brother of Muhammad the Great, the conqueror of Constantinople.
He escaped to Persia, and was transported to the Bahmani court in India, where he rose to power and
ended by establishing this They were constant rivals of Vijayanagar, and some time
line of kings,
after the overthrow power invaded Mysore and gained possession of large tracts of the
of that
country. These were formed into the provinces of Carnatic Bijapur Balaghat and Carnatic Bijapur
Payanghat, and placed under Shabji, father of the famous Sivaji. Their principal
opponents here
were the Keladi and Mysore kings.

Sk. 324 dated 1632, is a fine Arabie and Persian inscription of the Sultan Muhammad Adii
Shah, son of Ibrahim Adii Shah, recording the erection of a fort on the hili at the_ Masur Madaga
tank, as an indication of victory and an attempt “ to repel the wicked infidels and establish the
auspicious Islam,”

Ci 43 and 44 are of the same reign, and of considerable The former is partly in
interest.
Per sian and partly in K annada. The governor Bari-Malik, son of Lar-Khan, son of Shekh
Malik
resolved to construet a tank, the breached dam of which is stili in existence in the hilis to the
north-
west of the great Sulekere. When laying the foundation he heard that the Sultan was ili, and vowed

not to complete it till his rccovery. He seems to have obtained from the Hindus some texts as
to
the merit derived from making a tank. Of these the first is as follows ; — The quail and the boar
the she-buffalo and the elephant, the teacher and the carrier out (of the work),— these six went to
svarga. Ali the pandits seem to be acquainted with the verse, but cannot say where it occurs. It is
conjectured to be in the Mdsa-mahatmja of the Vayu or other purana. The explanation of it is, That
a quail once scooped a hole in the ground (to nestle in) ;
a boar came and made it larger ; a buffalo
and an elephant each in turn enlarged it stili more ; a holy man then pointed out that it could be
made into a tank or pond, and the king to whom he gave this advice carried out the idea. For their
8hares in this work of merit, ali went to svarga or paradise. The second text*is, — A tank, kidden
45

treasure, establishing tho vedas, a S'iva temple, groves, family, sons,— these sevea are continuous
progeny, it is said. That is, these seven confer continuous benefit ani their reward is unending.

But what moved him to make the tank was, to provide for the security of the region South from

Basavapattaua, where the Sendra conutry (as it appears to be called) was covered with great forest,
the haunt of robbers. On travellers complaining to him of the dangers of the place, he at once said
‘ I will go myself and see what there is there.’ This he did, and clearing away the forest, built there
a town called Mallipura (or Valipura), and made this tauk, such that the three worlds were astonish-
ed. He freely gavo out the land for cultivation, and formed the most sanguine expectations as to
the resuit. ‘ I will sow vvithout limit ’
he said, 1 and to all ti-avelling between Ramesa and Kasi will

daily supply milk from sugar-cane mills and will set up watersheds. I will continually piant cocoa-nuts,
plantains and rice, with betel vines, so that all the people shall be prosperous.’ Ci. 44, which is all

in Persian, States that the Sultan rec over ed from his illness, and the governor was under the obligatio»
of fulfilling his vow. He therefore completed the tank, aud named it Vali Surur (joy of a fdend).

HI. 106 and Ci- 46 appear to be grants by govern ors under the Bijapur Sultaus. Ci, 51
8hows the Sjrimanta Sahib, a Mahratta governor at Basavapattana, who makes a grant in conjunc-
tion with the Sar-Jamindar. The final imprecatory verse runs thus ; — Oh ! Raghava-Rajendra ! thougfe

living through seven kalpas, never have I heard of or seen any one who has taken away what he has
given. This is said to have been spoken by Jambavanta to Rama on his proposing to carry away a
jewelled tray which was found buried in the ground of Ravana’s palace. But Rama having bestowed
Lanka on Vibhishana, is reminded that he should not remove anything from it.

Chitaldroo g

A fuller account of these chiefs will come in the volume for the Chitaldroog District. There are
here only two inscriptions belonging to them, in the Sante-Bennur country, of which they for some
time possessed themselves. Ci- 27 is by B61eya-Kamana*Nayaka’s grandson Hiriya-Timmana-Nay-
aka. Ci. 20 is by Bommana-Nayaka, son of Medakere-Nayaka, who was the son of ?Kariyappa-
Nayaka.

British
r
Under this heading must be placed Sk, 324. This is the fine Arabie and Persian inscriptio»
of the Bijapur Sultans already referred to above. When the sluic.e of the tank below was repaired in
1863 by the Bombay Government, this stone was brought down from the hili and built in over the
sluice. And across its face was inscribed the fact in Kannada ;
an example, unfortunately not
wanting in other parts, of the sacrifice of bygone art and sentiment to modern bald utility.

Mysore

The only inseri ption of the Mysore kings is Sk. 91, recording the visit of the late Maharajak
to the Kedaresvara and other temples at Belgavi in 1885. It seems very tame and flat after the
glowing and eloquent descriptions of royal visits to the place in ancient times, and the glory of this
once splendid raother of cities, as it was called, has long passed away.

Architecture

The most striking examples of architectare in the District are at Belgami and Bandalike. Beh-

f>ami w as the royal city or capital (rdjadhdm of the Bana vage , welye Thousa nd . The name is vari-

ously written in inscriptions as Balligave, Balligamve, Balligrame, Ballipura or Balipura. It is said

to derive its name from the rakshasa Bali, and to have been visited by the Pandava brothers after

their performance of the Rajasuya sacrifice. They set up the five lingas of the Pahcha Linga temple.
in the 12th centary that it was styled the anddi rdjadhdm or
It was a place of such antiquity even ,

immemorial capital, and pattanahgala tavarmmane the mother of cities. It contained five mathas

and three puras, besides seven Brahmaparis. The first were connected with temples to Vishnu, S'iva,
Brahma, Jina and Buddha. The principal temple seems to have been that of Dakshina Kedare svara,
to which was attached the Ko diya-mat ha. At the head of this were a very learned and distinguished
line of high priests, a brancli of the Ka]amukhas, forming the S'akti-parishe of the Muvara-koneya-
santati of the Parvvatavali. The first one named is KedaraSakti, whose disciple was STikantha,
whose disciple was Somesvara (with dates 1094-1113), vvho had a younger brother Vidyabharana
Somesvara’s disciple was Gautama (dates 1129-1149), whose disciple was Vainasakti (dates 1156-
1193), whose disciple was Jnanasakti, There was also a Vamasakti, disciple of STikantha, in 1215.
And there was hesides another line from Kedarasakti, namely, his disciple Kudrabharana, whose
disciple was Valiniki in 1078. This matha was not only celebrated for learning, bat was a centre

for dispensing medicine to ali manner of sick persons, and like the mediaeval monasteries in Europe,

for distribution of food to the destitute and mendicants of all classes and *sects. Another principal
temple was the Fancha Linga, already referred to. This had attached to it the Kalamukh a Brah-
machari-sthana, at the head of which in 1036 was the celebrated Lakulisvara, founder of the Pasu-

pata sect, whose system of philosophv is frequently referred to as the Lakula-siddhanta and the La-
kulAmnaya.

Belgami is now an ordinary small village of 1 1 00 inhabitants. Several of the temples of which
it formerly boasted stili exist, but mostly in ruins. The Kedaresvara is perhaps the best preserved.
It is a triple temple, originally of very ornate design, in theChalukyan style. In front of each of the
pinnacles is the Hoysala crest, but this must have been added after the Banavasi country had come
into their possession. as the temple is evidently of much older date, and there is no Hoysala inscrip-
tion in support of a claim for them as the founders of it, But the erection of the Kedaresvara
temple at Halebid was almost certainly suggested by this one, for Abhinava-Ketala-Devi, who was
associated with Ballala II in its erection, was, it would seem, connected with the neighbouring city of
Bandalike (see Sk. 235). The Kedaresvara at Belgami is situated behind the embankment of the
Tavarekere or lotiNj tank which is frequently mentioned in the inscriptions. The Kodiya-matha, as
its name indicates, must have been situated near the 1
'codi, or waste weir. Another temple stili stand-
ing is the Pancha-Lihga, towards the north, near the Jiddi tank. The sculpture in it must have been
very fine, especially the Uma-Mahesvara groups. Two dodrapalaha in the Bangalore Museum were
brought, I believe, from here. There is a Nilakantha shrine, the linga in which is ofgreen stone. North
of this is the Tripurantak a, a double temple, with rich carving in the doorways and the perforated
screen between the two chapels. In the middle of the village is the Some&vara temple, now a large
and plain building. The Jina basti is represented by a massive seated Jina in the ynrd of a private
house. There is also a colossal fallen statue of Jina to the east of the village. The Bauddhalay a was
to the west of the Jiddi tank, where a large mutilated figuro of Tara Bhagavati is stili lying.
North-west of the village is a small island called Slta-hond a, which contained a temple of Jalasayana
and a number of Vishnu shrines. The images have been removed, I was told, to Shimoga.

Tawirmmane, — tlio liome from wliicli a bride poes forth ou becominp a wife.

The most striking object standing ia the village is perhaps the Bherundesvara pillar, now called
the Garuda-kambha. It is a lofty and elegant monolitb, with a figure of the Ganda Bherunda at the
top. 1 It was erected, according to the inscription on its base (Sk. 151)» by Chamunda-Raya in 1047,
and probably fixed th e length of the bliSrunda polo used in measurin g land (see Sk, 120). Near to
it is the Sula Brabma stoue, representing a man about to leap from the top of the pillar, supported
by celestial nymphs ;
with another tableau shovving hira fallen upon the points of a row of stakes.
This act otf suicide was apparently in fulfilment of a vow (see Sk. 152). It is much to be desired
that sorae efficient arrangements were made for conserving the interesting temples and other monu-
ments at Belgami. The existing arrangements seem next to useless. Some scattered stones bearing
inscriptions have been collected in the precincts of the Kedaresvara temple, bnt Lingayits have been
allowed to build rand walls within the temples round the Nandi, thus forming separate little dark
chambers for their own pecnliar worship. The enclosure walls are in a broken down condition, and
the courtyards overgrown with rank vegetation.

Bandalike or Bandanike, as it is called in the inscriptions, must have been a splendid city in its

time, and appears to have been the rajadhdni (royal city or capit al) of t he N agarakhanda Seventy.
It is now entire ly deserted and overgrown with teak trees. Of the ruined temples there. the Somes -
vara ha d an elaborately carved screen on each side of the doorway, extending from the ground to
the roof, representing an one side the Rdm&yana, story and on the other the Bharata story. The former
has been much damaged by fire. The Trimurti t emple must have been a handsome building. It has a
fine simha-laldta with ,
the regents of the Cardinal points, in front of a dome which has tumbled
down. In the centre of this carving is an empty niche formerly occupied by some inurge. There is

also a ruined Sahasraling a temple. The Jina b asti must have been a large and important one. On
the pillars are inscriptions engraved in bcmdhas or wheels, with a key to their interpretation (see
Sk. 222 to 234, and 228 to 231). Near the Trimurti temple is a sculptured stone representing
the acts described in Sk. 249. In the lowest tableau the queen is seen giving away her cloth to
her attendants, preparatory to the last farewel). In the middle tableau, on one side are the attendants
standing round the cloth, over which is held an umbrella of honour, while on the other side is seated

a man in penance, surrounded by others with drawn swords preparing to cut off his h ead.

The PranameSvara temple at Talgunda. of which hardly anything remains, is of special interest

on account of its antiquity and associations. It professes to have been founded by Brahma, and
the fine pillar inscription in front of it says that Satakarnni and other great kings performed
worship there, which would take us back to the 2nd century. Close by is the Brahma tirtha, the five

lingas at which are said to have been set up by the gods Brahma, Indra, Chandra, Yama and Agni.
The tank covered with lotus, the construction of which it is the object of the pillar inscription

to record, is also stili there. Talgunda moreover was the birth-place of the Kadambas.

At Sante-Bennur is an imposing mosque erected by Randulha K han on the site of the Raiiga*
natha temple, which was destroyed. The mosque was desecrated in revenge by the ousted chief, and
has never been used. The honda or reservoir in front, faced round with flights of steps, had orna-
mental pavilious at the augles and in the centre. These were improved with elegant additions by

the Muhammadans, but are in a ruinous condition. A fountain used to play from the middle one.

'its dimensions are as follows. —the shaft, to the top of the cornice of the capital, 30 feet 6 inohes high ;
the Bherundesvara
at top, ahout 4 feet high ; the bottom of the pillar is 1 foot 6 inches square to 8 feet from the ground ; above that it is

circular, of the same diameter, with decorative bands. The Bherunda is a double-headed eagle, with human body.

Date 1513 A.D.

Obeisance to Ganadhipati. Gbeisance to S'ambliu, beauteous with the chamara-like crescent

mooa kissing his lofty head, the original foundation pillar of the city of the three worlds. May the rod,

the tusk of the sportive Bear forni of liari, protect you, supported on which, the Earth, surmounted
with Hemadri as a kalasa, displayed the brightness of a canopy. May that brightnees which disperses

the darkness of troubles be for your happiness, which though an elephant ((jaja) was not-elephant
( Agctja ) born, and is worshipped even by Hari.

A glory (Chandra, the moon) there is, who iose like butter from the ckurning by the gods of the
great mille ocean, the disperser of darkness. He had a son, unequalled in penance, rightly named Budha :

by whose merits his son was Pururava, who by the power of his arni cut short the lives of his- enemies ;
A
his son was Ayn ;
whose son was Nahusha; his son was Yayat’, fierce in war on the earth. That
famous one’s son was Turvasu, kusband of Devayani, the equalof Vasu.

In that line shone Timma-bhupati, whose wife was Devaki : as famous among the Tuluva kings
~~ '

A '

as Krishna was in the Yadu line. From him sprung Isvara-kshitipalaka, whose wife was Bukkama ;

without reproach, of unimpaired good qualities, a crown-jewel of kings. From that fortunate one
sprang king Narasa, as Kama was born to Krishna the son of Devaki. Quickly damming up the
Kaveri when in full flood, and Crossing over, he seized the enemy alive in battle, and taking possessio»
of him a vi of his kingdom, made the pattana whose fore-name is S'rirahga his own abode, and set up
the pillar of his fame so as to gain the praise of the three worlds. Baving conquered Chera, Chb]a
and Pandya, as well as the Frd of Madhura whose pride was his ornament, the fierce Turushka, the
Gajapati king also, and others besides ;
from the banks of the Ga.nges to Lanka, and from the eastern
to the Western mountains, he placed his commands like a garland on the heads of all kings. In
Ramesvara and other holy places had he from time to time bestowed the sixteen manner of gifts

with a heart full of joy, according to the rules and associated with wise men ;
thus multiplying the
fame he had already gained among the inhabitants of the three woilds.

From Tippaji and Nagala-Devi, by king Nrisimha, were born respectively the king Yira-Nrisimha

and the king Krishna-Raya, as from Kausalya and Sumitra by Panktiratha (Dasaratha) were born
the two sons Rama and Lakshmana.

Vba-Narasimha, established on the jewcl-thro.ie in Vijayanagara, by his fame and policy putting
to shame Nriga, Nala and Nahusha, turning all hearts to himself, ruled the kingdom from Setu to
Surneru and from the eastern to the Western mountains. All manner of gifts had he made in Kanaka-
sada, in the temple of Virupaksha, in the city of the lord (f Kalahasti, in Vehkatadri and in Kanchi
;

in SVisaila, in S'onasaila, in the great Harihara, in Ahobala, and in Sahgama, in Shirahga, in


Kumbhaltona, in the great Nandi-tirtha freeing from sin, in Nivritti, in Gokarna, in Rama-setu and in
all other holy places in the world : so that the streams of water poured out with his gifts from the
beginuing formed a flood that covered again the mountain-, which, trodden to dust by the hoofs of
2 Shimoga Taluq.

the troops of his horsemen, were exposed to have their wings cut off by Indra's discus weapon. (Here
follow the names of a number of gifts he had made). Haviug ruled to the full unopposed, this king of

the earth, famed for his virtues, went to svarga, as jf to rule the kingdom of the sky.

Mightier even than him, tlie king Krishna-Raya bore up the earth on his shoulders as if a
jewelled epaulette. From. his wide-spread fame all nature became as if of the same (white) colour, so
that Parari (S'iva) could be distinguished only by the eye in his forehead, Padmaksha (Vishnu) by
his four arms, Padmabhu (Brahma) by his four faces, Kali by lier sworch, Hama (Laksbmi) by her
lotus, Vani (Sarasvati) by the lute in her liand. Overcome by h.s glory, the sun sinks into the westtrn
ocean as if quite unable to endure its distress of mind. As if feaiing that the seven oceans would
provide a refuge to his enemies, they were dried up with the cl iuds of dust raised by the earth tram-
pled to pieces by the troops of his horsemen, but they were formed again by the measureless streams
poured out with the brahmanda, svarna-Meru, and other his great gil|ts. As though, in order that the

donations and wealth he had given might be long enjoyed, he would stay the chariot of the sun and
provide resting places for the gods, he erected pillars, stretching like mountain peaks into the sky,
hlled with fclie accounts of his victorious expeditions to ( ach point of the compass and with the names
of his tities. In Kanchi, SYisaila, Skn.lchala, Kanakasabha, Yehkatadri and other places, so as to add

greatly to his glory, did he again and again bestow the great gifts descnbed in the sastras, together

with the grants associated with them.

Punisher of warlike hostile kings, ald j in protecting the world which is in the anaas of S'esha,

punisher of kings who break their word, giverofjoy to bis dependents, fierce in war, styled rajadhi-

sultan over the Hindu kings, destroyer of the tigers the evil, gandfc-
raja and raja-paramesvara,
bh§runda, distinguished by these and other tities ; served by Ahga, Vanga, Kalinga and other kings

Obeisance to Gariesa and S'ambhu, and invocation of the Boar (as in No. 1). Praise of Sadasiva

aud Lakshmi-Nrislmha,

Tliere is a celebrated king, Keladi-Sadasiva, whose policy instructs all kings in tbeir conduct.

From Sanlcendra, birn from his womb, sprang the estimable great Venkata-bhupati, a head-jewel of

all kings ; a moon to the lotuses the faces of hostile kings, his valour an adamantine armour to the
Karnata country. His two lotus-feet illuminated with the crovvns of prostrate kings, in truth a

Harischandra. A fnll moon to the line of the famous king Keladi-Sadasiva, a lion to the elephants

opposing kings, an ocean of treasure to the good, in we ilth a Kubera, an abode of learning and in-

telligence, to the company of good poets a Bhoja, of excellent qualities, was the king Venkata. A
diamond elephant-goad to the lusty elephants the group of the bounding Taulava rajas, a sun to dis-

perse the thick dartness the mimberless Kiratas, a bmindary mountain to stop the great ocean of the
Mlechchhas ever seeking to overllow the south in victorious expeditions, his arra of unequalled valour,
was the king Vehkata.

His son was king Bhadra, tilled with respect, his mind like a bee at the lotus-feet of Sadasiva.
By favour of S'iva, king Bhadra had a son, wise, intelligent and brave, the king Virabhadra He in
.

all affuirs was a help to the rajadhiraja raja-paramesvara, the great lord enthroned, named Venka-
tadri, being to him like a long right arm, possessed of fame and valour, devoted to the objects of
human desire. To the Southern kings alarmed by the great army of the Patusaha he gave protection,
distinguished for his enlightened policy and bravery. Enquiring after the agraharas formerly established

by kings on the throne, he protected them ;


skilled in minute researches into the esscnce of religion.
Desirous of establishing the Advaita philosophy of the pure Vedas : possessed of the title Yadava followed
by the word Murari. Plunderer of the forts of hostile kings ;
servant of gods, cows and Brahmans ;

a head-iewel of faith in S'iva. The lotus-hand of king Virabhadra glistens with water for the tree of
merit nourished by the libations of his gifts. The lotus-eyes of the wives of his proud emunies water
the tree his arm of valour and cause it to doubly glitter. Seeing the streams poured out with his
gifts to Brahmans by the king Virabhadra-Nayaka, saying “ I shall be exhausted ”, the pure water

ocean established itself at the farthest point. 1

He had a good minister, bearer of the burden of his masters affairs, versed in the Vedas, sastras
and fine arts, skilled in royal policy, a treasury of the six qualities, adorned with the three powers

of increase, of the Vasishta-gotra, Asvalayana-sutva and Bahvricha-pravara, learned, a brother to the


wives of others, ofiicer over Krishna-Raya’s treasury of gold, great grandson of Narayana-prabhu,
grandson of the mantri Ramakrishna, and son of the mantri Purushottama.

The king Virabhadra, being pbased with the virtuous qualities of that mantri named Rama-
A

in the Ga j
anur-sime on the bank of the Tungablia Ua, fur an agra-iara named Triyambaka-pura, of the

And whereas formerly during the siege of Sirooge, the former lord S'ivappa-Nayaka-ayya wrote

May it prevail, the honourable supreme profound syad-vada a fruit-bearing token, the,
doctrine-

of the lord of the three worlds, the Jina doctrine.

Be it well* When the refuge of all the world, favourite of eartli and fortuno, maharajadhiraja
paramesvara parama-bhattaraka, gloryof the Satyasraya-kula, ornament of tbe Chalukyas , —Trailokya-
malla-Devas victorious kiugdom was extending on all sides, to continue as long as sun, mcon and
stars :

The descent of the Ganua-li ne was as follows :

From the time of Vrishabha-Tirtha, a joy to the rainds of all the blessed, victorious over the Kali :

age, increaser of the brightness of fortune, in due succession, in a happy time, in Ayodhya-pura, the-

fjundation pillar to fame,— was born the great lord of the eartli, a head-jewel of the incomparable
llcshvaku race. When the great king Harischandra, the sole ruler in the world, by the strength of hia

arm putting down the titled, filled with ripe wisdom, had been for a long time (ruling) in peace.

His son, whose fame was lilce the moon or Hara’s smile, United with good qualities, destroyer of

the race of proud enemies, skilled in the aits, freed from evil, equal to Surendra, — was Bhnrata,.

lionoureu by poet kings. To him, famous, an abode of unimaginable merit, first of the good, of cele-
brated family, Vijaya-mahadevi, noted for uprightness, was the wife ;
and Bharata, honoured by the
learned, was likc Bhavaja himself in all the world. When the longing of pregnancy arose in that

Viiaya-mahadevi, that delicate one felt a desire to bathe in tho Ganges, covered with dancing waves r

filled with fish, chakravaka birds and shining swans, its banks gay with numbers of climbing plants r

tlie abode of pleasant fresh cool soft perfumed breezes. Like a royal swan, going with some female

companions to the river Ganges, wliich was full, she entered witb joy, and swimming about and singing,

frea from care, regaiued her brightness. Thus getting rid of her longing by swimming in the river

Ganga she returned to her house, and completing nine months, bore a son. To him, for the reason

that that beautiful one bore her son after bathing in the Gauga river, to that master of the lady
Eartli, was given the auspicious name of Gahgadatta.

To that Gahgadatta was born a son named Bharata ;


and to him a son named Gahgadatta. To
the treasury of good qualities, Gahgadatta, was born his daughteris son, a treasury of intelligence,
Harischandra, praised as a merciful lcing, and renovvned in the world. And to that best of kings

was b:rn a son named Bharata ;


and to him a son named Gahgadatta.

The Ganga line thus continuing,— when Nemxsvara-Tirtha, a light to the Hari-vamsa, was flourish-
ing, — there was born, a sun in the sky of the Gahga-kula, of brilliant splendour, the king named
Vishnugupta. That m march of the earth, having gained the empire, was in Ahichchhatra-pura in
peace, when, at the time of the nirvvana of Nemi-Tirthakara, he performed the Aindradhvaja-puja, at

wliich Devendra was pleased, and in his pleasure gave to Vishnugupta the unequalled Airavata. 1
When it is said that by Jina-puje the priceless (blessing of) mvikti is obtained, is ali else a great matter ?

To that Vishnugupta-maharaja and to Prithvimati-mahadevi were born the sons


Bhagadatta
and STidatta. On his giving to Bhagadatta the Kajihga country, he ruled over the Kalinga country
as Kalihga-Ganga and was in poace. Oa the other hand, the treasury of extended fame, the best of
kings, Vishnugupta, gave to king STidatta the lusty elephant and the whole kingdom. While thus
from STidatta downwards the elephant was adopted as their crest, — Priyabandhuvarmma aiose and
protected the whole earth by his policy, inaccessible to fear and avarice, filling witli smiles of joy
the
lotus-face of the young Lady Fortune.

While that Priyabandhu was thus ruling a peaceful kingdom, at that time ParSva-Bhattaraka
having obtained Kevalajndna, Saudharmmendra came and performed K§valipiije,j>n which Priya-
bandhu himself also came with faitli and performed puje. Indra, being pleased with ms faitb, gave to
him five ornaments, saying,— “If in your line any who countenance falsehood (or false faitb)
should
arise, they (the ornaments) will disappear.” Thus saying, and giving to Ahichchhatra
the name of
Vijayapura, Devendra departed.

On the other hand, the Ganga line, vvaxing greater like a full moon, continued
to flourish. And
in that line, to the king Kampa was named Padmauabha. He, from having no sons, being
born a son
afflicted in mind, worshippad the S dsana-devate who was the depository of Padmaprabha’s energy
and by divine mnntras brought her into his power. Having thus mastered her, he gained his end, and
obtained two sons, whom he named Rama and Lakshmana. The two, continuing in perfect friend-
ship, while only at play growing like the moon to folness of beauty, by the power and practice of
leaming advanced wonderfully in the earth, till their fame spread to the points of the compass, and
striking against the regent elephant made him shake, excelling by the wpight of their fortune.

While they were thus in peace, Mahipala, the ruler of Uiiayini-pura, besieged them,
demanding
the ornaments. On which Padmanabha, his face distorted with rage like Kritanta, said,—» For me
to give them away is impossible ;
for you to put them on is not proper stop quiet (but) if you have
; ;

come to mace war, I will in a minute close with and kill you, and show my valour ”,

Thus saying, he took eounsel with h's ministers, and sent (his sons) away, with his younger sister
a virgin, and forty-eight chosen Brahmans and as they were going
; to the south, gave to Rama and
Lakshmana the names Dadiga and Madhava.

Continuing by claily journeys, they came to a pleasant place, where tliey saw the extensive Perur,
a joy to tbe mind of the pare Lakshmi, and a hili covered with flowering mandam, namSru and sandal
trees. Seeing that Ganga -Herui’, they pitched their camp on the bank ofa tank there, and seeing a

chaityalaya with f ali devotion walked round


,
it three times, and giving praises, saw the voyager to the

farthest shore of the ocean of learning, the full moon to the ocean the Jina congregation, possessed

of patience and all the ten excellent religious qualities, his good l.fe a secare wealth, rejoicing in

the modest, his farno extending to the four oceans, kteping at a distance from the evil, a sun in

the sky of the Kranur-gana, devoted to the perfonnance of the twelve kinds cf pcnance, promoter
of the Ganga kingdom, — sri-Simhanandy-acharyya, and doing reverence to him through faith in

the gura, made known to him all the object of their coming. On which he, taking thern by the

hand, made them proficient in the art of learning, and aftersome days causing by his faith the
goddess Padmavati to appear, obtained a boon, and gave them a sword and the whole kingdcm.

While the munipati was looking on, Madhava, honoured by the learned, shouting, struck with
all his miglit a stone pillar , 1 when it (the pillar) broke with a noise of cracking ;
what cannot brave
men do? Seeing that energy, the munipati, making a coronet of the petals of the IcarnniMra, bound
it on, blessing them as honoured by the good, scattering grain (over them), giving them with a pleased
mind the dora inion of all the earth, making his peacock fan a signal flag for them, and furnished them
with numerous attendants, elephants and horses.

Having thus put them in possession of all the kingdom, he gave them the following advice :

If they fail in what they have promised ; it' they do not approve of the Jina sasana ;
if they seize the
wives of others ;
if they cat honey or flosh ;
if they form relationship with the low ;
if they give not
of their wealth to the needy ;
if they flee from the field of battle your race will go to ruin.

Having thus said, —the lofty Na n dagiri being tbeir fortrcss, Kuvalala their city, th e Ninety-six

Thousand their country, the blameless Jina their lord, Victory their companion in the battle-field, the

Jina mata their faith, — with ever increasing greatness, the kings Dadiga and Madhava ruled over the

earth.

And t he boundar ies of that country were, — on the north, the limit touched Marandale ;
east,

Tonda-nad ;
on the west, the ocean and the place called Cheram ;
south, Ivongu. Moreover, having
subdued all the enemies. that were within these limits, the Gahgas made firm their dominion over
so much, the circle of the Gahgavadi Ninety-six Thousand.

Being thus lords of the earth, •


the two, Dadiga and Madhava, when coming to subclue the

Eonkana country, saw Mandali, whose greatness was as follows : — Celebrated in the earth as
Mahendra-pura in the Krita age ;
it became stili more known as Madana-pura in the Treta ;
was
praised by the good under the third name of Mandala-pura in the Dvapara ;
and continually increas-

ing, this pura was called Mandali in tliis Kali age. On the outskirts of Mandali, thus known by
four names in the four ages, seeing a large tank attractive with the white water-lily and the thousand-
leaved lotus in blossom and the sound of many fish, they pitched their camp there, On seeing the

beauty of the hili, the ornament of the Kranur-ggana, Simhanandy-acharyya, proposed that they
sbould makea chaityalaya there, which taking as a great favour, they caused a chaityalaya to be made.

And after some days going to Kolala, they were ruliiTg the kingdom in peace. And as the Ganga
line continued to increase, to Dadiga was born a son named Madhava, who ruled the kingdom. His
son was Harvarrama. His son was Vishnugopa, who associated with falseliood (or a false crecd), on
which those ornaments disappeared. His son was Prithvi-Gahga, who favoured the true faith. His
son, who tripped up and cast down the titled, was Tadangala-Madhava.

A dvveller in the south country, promoter of the family of the chiefs of the Gaiiga territoiy, lord

which was a brilliant spotless moon in the sky of the sri-Mula-sahgha, a glory to the Jina-dharmma,
was the Kranur-gana, a joy to all people. In the line of that gana, lilce a jewel in the ocean, a

garland on mount Meru, the tifalca on the forehead, moonlight to the moon, or a swarm of female

bees to the lotus of the pond, was born, a puritier of the Jina-dharmma, Balaehandra, His disciple,

khya ; trust not in your power of speech, crouch down and be quiet, Chharbbaka ;
Naiyyayika, raise

not your head, lceep low ;


lo, here he comes and will simply disgrace you, — Gunachandra-Deva, without

(nor) the celestial elephant, its temples are soiled with rut
S'ambhu, his throat is marked with poison ; the moon, it is covered with spots : — so pure was the

wisdom of the ocean of siddhanta revealing the forms of good and evil as proclaimed from the lotus

The lay-disciple of the so celebrated Prabhachandra-siddhanta-deva was Bhujabala-Gahga Perm-
madi-Barmma-Deva. Overthrowing powerfal enemies and defeating them in great battles, did he
stop ? — qaickly attacking them, he captared the enemies' city, their fort and their territory, so that
the earth praised Barmma-Deva as having extended his dominion by the power of his arm, — what a
form of bravery was Permmadi. To the proud who feli upon liim, to kings who sought refuge with
him, to men who came begging, he was (respecti vely) a mountain of the gods, a cage of adamant, and
a tree of plenty, — Barmma-Deva, a god to the brave.

To describe this Barmma-Deva’s patta-mahadevi :


—a female bee at the lotus-feet of Jinendra,
lier beautiful form adorned with good qualities, like a halari among women, was Ganga-mahadevi.
To this great consort were born the sons —Marasihga, Satya-Gahga, Kali-Rakkasa-Ganga, and
Bhujabala-Gahga.

In firmness not mount Meru, in depth not the ocean, in bravery not the son of Surendra, in great
generosity not the tree of plenty, in skill not the conqueror of Panchaia,— but the most distinguished,
says the world, is the great victor in war, Gahga. If he speaks, (it is) truth ;
if he does, a sasana ;

he gives, Rama’s arrow ;

Ahobaladri, and other places, again and again did he bestow gifts in temples and bathing places, of

gold, tuld-purusha and others, besides subordinate gifts.

After him, his son S'riranga-Raya, born from Vegalamba, was celebrated. Established in Udda-
giri, he conquered Kondavidu, Vinikonda-pura and other fortresses, and with the malcara and other
insignia took up his residence in Penugonda-puri, a jewel to the circle of the world. When in accord-

ance with the rules he was anninted to the throne by chief Brahmans, he distributed gifts on every
side. Thus, having sublued ali his enemies, he was protecting the whole world, wlien S'riranga-Raya
attained to the feet of Murari.

Then his younger brother Vehkatapati-Deva-Raya, born from Vegalamba, the son of Tirumala-
D&va-Raya, established in Suragiri on the throne of the ernpire, ruled the earth in justice, having

been anointed to the throne by Tatayaryya, the guru of his own gotra, and other chief Brahmans ;
immediately on which he subdued the Yavanas, and thus ruled the earth. Venkatamba, Ragha-

vamba, Ped-Obamamba and Pin-Obamamba were his wives. His troops of horse and elephants, with

his weapons and umbrellas, being seized in battle by the brave soldiers of this powerful king, — the
son of Maluk-Ibhuramu (Malilc Ibrahim) went to his house in despair, and well beaten (maha mardda)
exemplified his name Mahamadda-S'alm [Muhammad-Shah]. When he bore the world on his
shoulder like an epanlette, the lord of the serpent world and the mountain chains, being relieved of
their burden, resorted to Vrishasaila [Tirupati] and servcd [the god] Venkatadhisvara.

enemies, — Vikramaditya-Deva.
When, having obtained such glory and fame, the refuge of all the world, favourite of earth aud

fortune, the maharajadhiraja paramesvara parama-bhattaraka, gbry of the Satyairaya-kula, orna-


ment of the Chi]mkyas, —Tribhuvanamalla-Deva’s own victorious kingdom was extending on all sides,

to continue as long as sun moon and stars, and he was in the residence of Kalyana, in the enjoyment

of increasing supreme happinass ( parama-hcilyana ), protecting the whole earth under the shadow of his
sole umbrella in peace and wisdom ; —
The Chandra-vamSa (or Lunar race), famed of old in the world, obtained royal rank ;
but greatly
exalting that fame in that they were moons without spot, having thus no equal in regard to fame or
name, truly renowned, the theme of eulogy to many great poets, having themselves acquired fame,
were the Pandyas among which vvorthy ones, many sons of kings (arasu-malckal) having been born,

In the Krita-yuga, to the accomplisher of his desires Jamadagni, the hushand of Renuki, 2 was
born the powerful bearer of the Parasu (or axe), the slayer of the son of Kritaviryya, who murder-
ed the guru. And twenty-one times slaying all the kings in the world, he bestowed the circle of the

earth as far as the ocean upon the Brahmans (


dharam-dSvar ) ;
but considering that he should not
dwell in the property of the Brahmans, he tumed back the sea with the tip of his bow, the son of
Reiiuki, 2 praised by the learned. Having left not even space for a drop (Jcana) in the place ocoupiod

by the Western Ocean, thatlord obtained from the favour of Phanikahkana (S'iva) the Seven Kohkana
as his abode.

To the laiy the Koh kana conn try thus created by Parasu- Bama, Hayve w as lilce her (kahlcana)
(or bracelet) ;
in which, as the beautiful chief gem, shone forth Sisugali. Notorious enemies, from the
courage (

lience was this
great royal city called ?'

There many Pandya kings having continued to rule :


— Eis fame rejoicing the licarts of all people

in the world like the moonlight, from the ocean of the Chandra vamsa arose the king Chandra. The
jewel of women, Kammala-Devi, worthy of praiss from all, was like the bright moonlight to that

Chandra (or moon), and extended his glory by lier union with him. A son was boni to that husband
and wife, a3 it from Likshmiand Vislnyi, most beautiful, rejoicing the hearts of the coyest fair
ones, — Kama. And elever, of high qualities and beauty, Bhagala-Devi, a Rajaputri jewel, like a Rati to

this Kama, became this lord’s beloved wife. No light armed one, — to that Bhagala-Devi, and to that
great king Kama, was barn with spotless fame, surpassing Indra in the splendour of his wealth,
Chandra. To vvhoin is any courage left after belolding this brave one ;
where will any strength of
arm remain after opposing this strong-armed one ;
the proud retain their usual firmness only as long
as his brows are straight on his face (i. e. until lie frowns) ; — thus does the world praise Chandra.
Praised by all people in the world, her fame her wealth, Savala-Devi, of firm conjugal devotion, this
woman like Rohini, became the wife to this Chandra. To that lord and to Savala-Devi was born
a son, devoted to the faith of S'iva, rich in spotless glory, — Kama-D&vn, a god among the brave. The
fortune of a hero was to him wars were as his spring season, with him by natur e
as his Rat :

,
great
abode the power with poisoned arrows to send brave enemies to the society of the celestial nymphs,
thus does all the world, declaring him to be indeed Kama-deva (the god of love), praise Kama-Deva.

Wheri thus, like the nose to the face of the lady the Pandya line, seated on the Pandya throne,
entitled to the tive big drums, the maha-maudalesvara, boon lo rd of Gokarna-pur a, head jewel of
the Pan iyi- vamsa, a cattle rope to champions, to others’ wives the son of the river (Bhishma), a joy

Nigalanka-malla, bearing the lotus feet of Tribhuvanamalla-Deva as a crest on his liead, a root for
the plantain tree valour, — with these ani other tities, Tribhuvanamalla- Kama -Devarasa was ruling
the kingdom in peace and wisdom :

One day, in a discoarse on S'iva-dh irmma,


— ‘Dharmma is the root of the vine of fame ;
dhar-
mma is beloved by both world s ;
save the man devoted to dharmma there is none worthy of reverence
in the world’; —being quoted as a precept of the S'iva-dharmma, — and from the divine discourse of the
worshipper of spirit, the eminent Sarasvata, Somesvara-pandita, — having conceived a desire to perform

a work of S'iva-dharmma ;

On the Adhipati giving the Vanavasi country to the protector of the grove of the vine king Tri-

bhuvanamalla’s fame, the protector of all the learned, Anantapala,— he, accepting the same,

Kedara matha, may the siglit of the divine nectar of the god KedAresvara’s mercy ever
protect
Oautama, a present manifestation of the ancient Gautarna muni.

^ rom the mi<lile of the lotus navel of the lord of the goddess cf
. Fortune was born the lord of
the goddess of bpeeeh ;
from vvhose powerful arms, protectors ol the sea-engirdled earth with
the might of their owq invincible arms, parts of the lord of the goddess of Fortume, vvere born tho
Chafukya kings.
Among them, in the might of his strong arms like Vishnu who crushed in battle the Asura that
hal c.arrried off the earth to the infernal regions, and brought back, was the king Taila.
it Tailapa-
Devas eldest son was the lord Sattiga. His son, master oi the lady Fortune, was Vikrama. Ilis
younger brother, an axe to the vine the territories of his encmies, was
the king Dasavarmma. His
son, lord ot the lady Earth, Jayasimha, protected the earth
with affection. Of natural courage,
Ahavamalla was his 3on. His eldest son, favourite of the earth, everywhere an unequalled wrestler
was Bhuvanaikamalla.
Afcer him, among those Chalukya kings, of astonishing fame, the world praising him as baving
the character of the sixteen (great) king3, was Permmadi-Deva, his younger brother. As if afraid
of the reproach that ever of old forgettmg his greatness he was underneath, bearing up the whole earth

in the Tortoise incarnation, from that time Hari resumiag his greatuess had come to bear up the
earth from above, such was Vikramaditya-Deva. In the stream the sword of the Chajukya emperor
dwells the Lakshmi of Victory in order by its ablution to purify the earth from the impurity at.d evil
which had accumulated frotn its long stay in the arms of the kings of the Kali age. The palace of
the king was flooded with streams of the ichor of rutting elephants and the foam from the mouths
of horses, brought and handed over by the groups of hostile kings he had subdued. That the Malava,
€hola, Gauja, Magadha, Anga, Turushka, Kalinga, and Vanga kings, trembling, subrait to his

commauds with fear, m tking friendship, agree with all he says, and are in the enjoyment of their
kingdoms, — this I know ;
for were it not so, he would at once without pity have sent those great kings
to enjoy the kingdom of the gods, — this lord of Kuntala.

To Permmadi-Raya thus famous, like a faultless gem from the Rohana inountain, like the moon
from the milk ocean, like the sun from theeastern mountain, an ornament to the race of kings, bright
with intelligence, of wide spread glory, was born the king Soma. When he was born, forthwith afflic-

tion was born to tho lines of hostile kings, great love for him was born tbroughout all the Kuntala
country, to the ever celebrated Bharati a companion was born, — what kings could compare with this
king ? When he was yet a boy, he wanted the jewels in tho crowns of hostile kings, and the jewels
on the temples of their elephants, to bind on the string round his waist. As soon as he began to
walk, tho hostile kings began to walk away into the forest, through fear ;
a3 soon as lie began to

talk, their talk was connaed to wild men of the jnngles. When he wants to play at ball, he does not
care to play with balls, and will not play without the hoads of hostile kiugs, — who can measure the
strength of arm and might of this king ? The pure soa of the emperor Vikrama’s joy was filled up,

the lotuses the hands of his euemies were folded together, the waterliliee tho eyes of the whole world
were filled
A
with laughtcr, — when tho king Soma rose above the great mountain of the east. Re-

lieving Adisesha of the weight of the earth which truly prevented his turning so that he could see his
own body, and the Tor toise king vvhose back was scarred with bearing up the burden of the earth,

aaying let those living creatures be at ease, he bore up the earth in his own migbty arms, the
powerful Chalukya king Soma. Ilis wide ohest was a boautiful palace for the lady Fortune, his
sharp sword was a jowello 1 pleasure-house for the fortuno of Valour, his lotus face was a dancing-
stage for the fortuno of Wisdom, — theso various fortunes did lio support in his aiighty arms, this

Bhulokamalla. The jewels in the crowns of prostrate hostile kings the constellations, his own fame
the moonlight, his rise causing the flocks of clidkora birds all the people in the world to escape the

heat, — this king was rightly named Soma (the moon), and thus did he shine — the king Somesvara.
Though the brightness of his rays (or gifts) gratifies the gods (or the learned), though an ornament
to S'rikantha (or, the throat of S’ri), rejoicing tho waterliiies (or the circle of the earth), — thus
greatly praised he may be, but being without faults and so without spots can this Soma be compared
with the Soma (or moon) in the sky ? The flames of the fury of hostile kings are quenched at once
at mere mention of the water the terrible sword of Somesvara. Kuntala being like the tresses

( Icuntala ) of
his loved one, Kanchi like her glittering zone {Jcanchi), and the stream of fair women
in his female apartments like the copious streams accompanying his gifts, he rose to conquer all

around him, and ensuring peace with the glory of his mighty arms, he was the only one who ruled
the world, — the king Soma. That he had not get punished Yama for unceremoniously carrying off

those whom he protected, that he had not yet secured Maha Meru to bestow in gift, that he had not
yet been a refuge to Mainaka and other great mountains, — these causes daily plunged him into a sea
of anxiety, — the king Somesvara-Deva.
When this celebrated Chalukya emperor, the king Somesvara Bhulokamalla, with the intention
of making a victorious expedition to all parts, came to t£e*SoulI^ and had fixed his camp in peace
and wisdom in the Hulluni tirtha, — on his making a specek on the subject of dharmma, seizing the
opportunity,

The head jewel of the Kadamba-vamSa, crest jewel in the crown of chieftains, a wishing-stone
to the learned, a famous mountain of courage, Taila, —Virata-nagari his abode, boon lord of Vana-
vasa-pura, a pearl garland to the goddess of Victory, Taila, a great favourite of his lord,—rising,
stood with his lotus hands folded, and said ;
‘Deva a petition’,

**
Among the myriads of countries the famous Kuntala country is the beat ;
in it the Banavase-
nad is the best ;
in which, if well considered, Balligave, the treasury of good people, the mother of
cities ( pattanangala tavarmmane) is the best, its fame being spread throughout the whole world
boundedby the ocean. Being the sole abode of the learned (otherwise, the gods), it is like Amaravati
being filled with happiness (otherwise, serpents), it is like the splendid Bhogavati-pura ;
and in wealth

may be compared with Alakapura ; —thus celebrated throughout the sea-engirdled earth, what city
can compare with Bajligave ?

‘ To describe the qualities of its citizens Hospitable to strangers, of one speech, the birth-
place of prudence, the dwelling place of dharmma, a theatre for the performance of excellent poets, a
simple mine of honour, performers of the pure worship of Hari, Hara, Pankajasana (Brahma), Jina
and other gods,— who in the sea-encircled earth are equal to the great citizens of Balligave ? As by the
bestowal of perishable articles they can obtain neither this world nor the next, they from time to
time stock their shops with the imperishable, the citizens (or merchants) of that famous town. Like Sura-
pati in being the resort of the learned (or gods) ;
like Indra’s great elephant in shining with moisture

(or wealth) ;
like the Moon in beaming with rays (or, wisdom) ;
like the Serpent king in maintaining
the earth (or, patience) ; —
who in this world are equal to the great citizens of Balligave ?

‘ And to the people of that town, — like the tusks to the elephant, like the dreadful canine teeth

to the lion, like the great wings to the sarabha, are the chiefs or lords ( prabhugal ) of the city.

‘ And there the temples of Hari, Hara, Kamalasana, Vitaraga and Bauddha, like the five

arrows in the world, shine as the five raathas in that cityj

‘ And there are three puras, like three eyes of Samagra Lakshmi, or like three pearl neck-
ets round the throat of that fair one.
j

‘ And to the south of this Bajligave, the native horne of ali beauty and ali dharmma, is situ-
ated a lotus pond, close to which, as if ali the immeasurable raerit acquired by its citizena had
combined into one abode of S'iva, is a beautiful temple to the god called Nagaresvara.

The Southern Kedara is the means of the absolution of sin, the very presence of S’iva mani-
fested to all the citizens, visibly displaying ali the glory of the Krita-yuga. Moreover the course
of the sacred bathing streams there is lilce that of the Ganges at Kedara, the lofty tower of the
S'iva temple piercing the sky rises up like the peak of Kedara, and the holy ascetics performing
penance there are like the holy ascetics at Kedara whose minds are bent on the performance of the
most difficult penances, — thus this is a nevv Kedara, the standing crops of its fertile fields resem-
bling the horripilation arising from the S'ivalinga worship, its temple the abode of Paramesvara.

The god Kedara therein, who, thinking with supreme benevolence on hisfaithful worshippers,
afraid of the cold and unable to make the distant pilgrimage (to Kedara) — frees them from all sing
(here), the brightness of whose lotus feet is an ornament on the heads of the gods prostrate) before
him, — may he protect you, the wearer of the crescent moon.

1
As if proclaiming that here is firmly fixed the lord of the Krita-yuga, dreading the guilt of
the wicked of the Kali age, like a strong fortress, well built, is its encircling wall.

‘And its matha shines like the Kamatha (or tortoise), as asupport of all people ;
like Puru-
shasimha, as distinguished for the slaying of Hiranyaka^ipu (otherwise, forgifts of money and food) \
like Kurukshetra, as the abode of Sarasvati (otherwise, learning) ;
like the Khachara-loka, as sur-

rounded with Vidyadhara chiefs (otherwise, great men of learning) ;


like the Mandara mountain, as
the most excellent on all sides ;
like Vasudeva, as rejoicing in the sound of the words of Akrura
(otherwise, gentle words) ;
like the abode of Bkavani, as filled with the rites of Brahmacharis ; like a
prudent man, as beautified with the ornament of learning ;
like the banks of the Godavari, in minis-
tering to the Service of Gautamaryya.
1
To describe the descent of the line of gurus of that matha : — In the Muvarakoneya-santati
of the devout Parvvatavali was he born, the lord of unblemished fame, Kedarasakti-pandita-deva.
S'rikantha, like a pearl necklace to the throat of Sarasvati, a touchstone for testing the gold of
learning, reverenced by the world, was his disciple. After him, that munipa’s disciple, a moon in
raising the tide of the great ocean of learning, was Somesvararyya, a sun to the blue waterlily

Kama (or desire). After that, the equal of the celebrated Bharabhuti ,
1
was celebrated that fortu-
nate munipa’s younger brother, Vidyabharana, a faultless ornament of learning, an ornament of the
lady fame. A thunderbolt in splitting the great boulders the Bauddhas, a lion in tearing open the

frontal globes of the elephant the Mimamsa creed, a sun to the clustre of waterlilies the Syad-
vada, — shines Vidyabharana, a true ornament and muni of the Naiyyayikas. When having no
desire to pass his time in any other business but the cultivation of learning, he made over the busi-

ness of the matha to his own senior disciple, with ability to promote the guru-kula, Vamasakti-

munisvara. The moon with great difficulty sheds its rays of nectar over the ocean-girdled eartb,

but what is that ? — like a sun of a thousand rays the unspotted wise Vama§akti illuminates the
matha and remains for its protection’.

On his thus making petition, hearing of the greatness of the virtue of the matha, and of the

devotion to virtue, learning and penance of the acharyyas of the matha, the hair of his body stand-

ing erect with plcasure, ha gazed with brightened eyes on the face of the Kadamha lion, and
saying,“ Wo must perform some work of inerit in that temple,” — inquired “ What towns are there

It is not ciear who is meant by this.
Skikarpur Taluq. 71

near to it ? ” On which he replied — “ Let not the Deva perform a different work of merit. I have
already performed a certain work of inerit there for the increase of the Deva’s victorious kingdom.
Xet it by pouring of water from the Deva’s own hands be confirmed, to endure as long as sun.

and moon.”

Accepting that proposal, — for the repairs of the temple, for gifts of food to the ascetics, for
gifts of learning, and the worship of the god, — in the 3rd Chalukya-Bhuloka year, the year Kila-
ka, &c., —sending for Vidyadharana-deva, and washing his feet, he presented, with pouring of water,
Tadavanale in Jiddulige-nad, together with the Hakkale field as a sthala-vritti in that nad, with
enjoyment for three generations ;
and on betel leaves, areca-nut, grain and all other articles requirea
for sale, purchase or consumption, he remitted the vadda-ravula, hejjunJca and all other customs
duties, and made the gift with all ceremonies.

Then that Vidyabharana, despising it as being a cause for the destruction of the various
pleasures of learning and the happy state of yoga^ made it over to his own world-renowned senior

disciple Gautama-muni, with the headship of the matha.

Like bright lamps, many munindras, abodes of the highest good qualities, had illumined that
matha ;
after whom the muni Gautama, a pure jewel lamp, like a young bud, ever sbone in it with
world-wide fame, while all the world folding their hands addressed him as Jiya. The fortune of the
Kedara temple was planted, as if a tree of plenty for the world, through Somesvararyya, firm ia
penance. After him, through Vamasakti it threw out branches, was filled with sprouts, blossomed,
and spread into all the world, Then through the great Gautamacharyya it bore fruit,

to the elephant the enemy, Ni^sanka-malla, —with these and other tities, the bhujabala chakra-
vartti Tribhnvanamalla Bijjala-Devarasa’s glory was as follows :
72 Shikarpur Taluq.

The fierce flames of the courage of his enemies being quenched by tbe streams of glory from the
dazzling sword ia his powerful arms, this great king Bijjala having gained a name so that there was
no other king besides, novv rules the world as its sole monarcb. The black serpent his terrible sword
enters the aut-hills the faces of mighty hostile kings, is nourished by their blood as if milk, swallows
up their breath as if wind, and is ever excited by the flames of hunger. The jewels from the crowns
of fierce opposing kings lying scattered on all sides like hailstones, the flashing of weapons like
lightning, the streams of blood falling in all parts like a deluge of rain,— the battle field in front
of Bijjala-Deva resembles the rainy season. Entrails being poured out in rolls, vvarriors sinking
covered with wounds and lying side by side vvith their horses, while headless trunks dance aroundj
and the abandoned female rakshasas assemble and enter the field for a feast of blood,— wonderful is the
war of this Giridurggamalla. If he speaks, it is like letters cut in the rock on Meru or Mandara
if he gives, it is the destruction of the poverty of the supplicant
;
if he protects, there follows neither
old age nor death to the race of refugee kings say not, brother, that he can be compared with
other kings, the king Bijjala, terrible in war.

A dweller at the lotus feet of this foundation abode of honour and glory, the king Bijjala-Deva,

was Kasapayya-Nayaka. To extoll his qualities :


— what is reckoned as rubbish ('Jcasa ), at a single
glance of his that moment appeared as shining gold ( hasavara to all his friends and from house to
house of all those of good birth ;
so that the name of Kasapayya-Nayaka became famous throughout
the sea-engirdled earth. His heart at the lotus feet of S'ankara, distributing the gold he had justly
acquired to his fiiends, displaying the terror of his mighty arms in the war against the enemies of
his lord ; — was he a common man in the world, the jewel in the crown of the people, Kasapaya ? A
bee at the lotus feet of Hara, surrounded with men famous for every branch of learning, sole orna-
jnent of good warriors ; —was he an ordinary man, Kasapaya, in the world ? In taking sole charge
of a country ruined by the administration of others and bringing it into prosperity, in conferring
benefits on others, who can compare with Kasapaya ?

With the permission of that great one, Bammarasa was the ruler of the Banavase-na<j. To de-
scribe the greatness of his qualities, —By his government nourishing as with showers of milk the crops
the learned among the Brahmans and his friends, ever was he praised, possessed of all the various

learning in the world, and reverenced with folded hands as Barmma, the bestower of blessings
'sarmma-lcarmmanam)

as governors, but what governor was also learned like him, Barmma, the delight of all the learned ?

Inspectors to see that the Lakshmi of that Bommarasa’s government was free from adultery, and
also royal inspectors, were the five Icarn nanis, —S’ridhara-Nayaka, Achana-Nayaka, Chattimayya-
Nayaka, Malliyana-Nayaka, and Tikkamayya-Nayaka,— these shone like the five senses to king Bijj-

ala-Deva,, To describe the greatness of their qualities : —Benevolent to others, powerful as the ocean,

in ministerial skill unmatched, bold as fierce lions, able in detecting frauds, superior to all opposition,

their great fame like the sound of the turyya, strengthened with all manner of self acquired merit,

devoted to the faith o? the feet of Isvara, — how great were these Tcarnams ?

And moreover, a sun (ravi) in causing to unfold the lotus the face of that Bammarasa’s great
fortune, was the great minister Ravi-Deva ;
the greatness of whose qualities was as follows

While the lotuses the faces of the chief ministers expand under the pure rays of the counscl of
Ravi-Deva, why do the lotuses their hands become folded together ? and why do the waterlilies the
eyes of the goddess the fortune of Bammara’s growinglnngdom becomc wide open ? — this is a wonder

in the world.

the place appointed for the performance of the rites of devotee
Brahmachari S'iva munis ;
the place for the recital of the four vedas, the Rig Yajus Sama and

a place of security from fear for all living

livelihood and thrice seven generations of our families . — While they were thinking in this manner,—

Bijjala-maharaja, having come there in order to subdue the Southern region, and encamped in

Balligave, was in the enjoyment of peace and wisdom ;

They ali united eoming, seated themsdves and were discoursing on the dharmma of the Kodiya-
matha, when Kasapayya-Nayaka rising, and standing in front of his maharaja, folding his lotus hands
said “ Deva, a petition ” and spoke as follows :


The Southern Kedara ii the means of the absolutiou of sin, the very presence of S'iva manifest-
ed to all the citizens, visibly displaying all the glory of the Krita-yuga. Besides this, its matha is

like the ancient Kamatha (or tortoise), a support of all -the world ;
like Purushasimha, distinguished
for the slaying ( ddna ) of Hiranyakasipu (othervvise, for gifts of
food) ; like Kurukshetra, money and
the abode of Sarasvati ;
like theKhachara-loka, surrounded with Vidyadhara chiefs (othervvise, great
men of learning) ;
like the great Mandara mountain, most excellent on all sides like Vasudeva, ;

rejoicing in the sonnd of Akrura^s words (othervvise, gentle words) ;


like the abode of Bhavani, filied

with the holy rites of Brahmacharis.


Descended in the line of the gurus of that matha, the disciple of Gautamacharyya, is Vama-
sakti-munisvaracharyya. To describe the greatuess of that munis vara : — A.s lights of the line of
gurus, many
munisvaras, abodes of the higliest qualities, have illuminated that matha after whom ;

the muni Vamasakti, a pure jevvel lamp like a young bud, brilliant as the moon or the rays of the sun,
filied with light the whole world, which with folded hands addressed him as Jiya. His face a dancing
stage for Vani, his trua heart a jewelled abode for the destroyer of Madana, celebrated throughout
the world is Vamxsakti-pandita-deva. Though in the vines the arched eyebrovvs of the fair lie has
placed his stigxr cane bovv, in their glancing eyes his flovvery arrovvs, and thus become famous,—
from fear of the severity of Vamasakti-muni's peuance, the god of love confines himself in the earth
to the thoughts of the mind.

‘Therefore were the Deva to perform in that matha somework of merit, it will endure as long as
sun and moon.’

On his saying thus, the king Bijjala taking it to inind,— for the decoration of the god Dakshina
Kedaresvara, for gifts of food to the ascetics, for gifts of learning, for repair 3 of the temple, and for
satisfying the good and the beloved,— in his 6th year, &c., at the time of the sun’s eclipse, washing

— gave him the Banavase-nad, which was accepted as a discinguished favour

by that great minister : to describe whose qualities :

The honourable life of the Manus was his life, the policy of the ancient kings was the policy he

adopted, wealth for others was the wealth he had acquired by his arms, the promotion of his ruler’s

greatness he counted as his own promotion, the happiness of h;s dependants he reckoned as his
own happiness, — thus during his life-time did he increase his glory, Kesava-dandanayaka. None were
conceited, none conspicuous in splendour, none in opposition, none calling out for infiuence, none cre-

ating a disturbance, none who were in suffering, no enemies filled with anger, none who in addition

to their tities had their heads turned by the songs of poets,— in the kingdom of the lord Krisbna-KeSa-
va-deva-chamupa. Double of Chanakya, tenfold of S'akaluka, a hundred-fold of Bhrigu, a thousand-
fold of Hari, thus much did he exceed them in glory, the minister Kesava-deva.

And that great minister Kriahna-Kesava-deva-dandanatha’s principal councillors were as foll-

ows : — His life that of Manu, in conversation not uttering vain words, by his faith having gaiued the

position of a S'aiva, — being of such glory, who was equal to Narasinga-naynka. Iu affection and speech

have tliey from the learned, what sort of kings are they ? A reflection of the affairs in the mind of
his lord, to those who try to stop him like the messengers of death, to supplica» ts like the cow of
plenty, thus did Chamayya appear. His devotion at the fect of S’iva, gentle in speech, e2ger to do
deeds of benevolence, possessed of such qualities, Bichiraja’s fame shone to ali the points of the com-
pass. Only for the purpose of gratifying the desires of supplicants did ho take the trouble of acquiring
wealth and for no others, the S'iva-tirtha, Dasiraja of exalted glory.

Moreover, to describe tlie greatness of the haranams who were like embodiments of the bcnevol-

directecl to the creation of the world, as it' his power had assumed a separate bodily form, from the
lotus of his navel sprang in submission Brahma.

On surveying the circle of ali the worlds created in order by Brahma, the mosfc beautiful is the
Central one (the earth) ;
in that world the most pleasing region is the delightful Jambd dvipa
and is that dvipx the most excellent is the Bharata land ;
and in that land the Kuntala country
the most worthy,

These who obtained the sovereignty of that Kuntala country, were horn from the full water-jar
in the shining left hand of Brahma, who sprung from the lotus-navel of the resplendent Yishnu, were

they not ? — the Chalukya-kula.

Of that family the progenitor, who, dispersing his enemies, secured the sovereignty, and his power
being double that which his enemies obtained from the infernal regons, lescued from the Rattas the
whole world which they had seized, was king Tailapa, who exalted beyond belief the Chalukya
line, After liim, his son ruled the earth, the ever prosperous king Satyasraya ;
and followiug after

him, his younger brother’s son obtained it, the mighty Vikramanka. After him, his younger brother
obtained it, with wide-spread fame as bright as the pleasant moon, emperor of the world surrouuded
by the seven oceans, Ayyanayya. That king’s younger brother, plucker up of the lines of hostile

kings, a thunderbolt to the mountain the anxieties of the learned, remover of the affictions of the
A

earth, was Jayasimha. His son Ahavamalla then ruled the earth, whose tresses are the groves of
tam ala trees, whose throat is ornamented with the stems of young areca palms, whose breasts are
the swelling mountains. The next ruler was that king’s son Somesvara, whose younger brother was
the king Permmadi, whose son, praised in all the world, was Bhulokamalla. His son, left Malava
without possession, forced the Tallavas to hold the sprouts, made Lata place his hands together on
his forehead, and filled up the troubles of Kalinga, — thus does the world describe the uuequalled

valour of Jagadekamalla, That king’s younger brother, of great liberality, a lion in the des-

truction of the elephants the groups of his enemies, .. was Nurmmadi Taila.

At that time was Bijjala king, who bore up the earth with the strength of hismight, whose sharp
sword was as a serpent swallowing up the air of the breath of his boasting enemies, from whom all the
learned obtained great joy, whose fame filled the ears of the elephants at the points of the compass.

The saying that heroes should possess the earth was then not in vain, for he brought into subjection

the earth from the ocean on the south to his northern boundary the Chalukya capital (or encamp-
ment>, lilce an infuriated elephant to the hostile, and showing fricndship to those who came to war,

arose, a treasury of ali Rrahman virtues, a procurer of immeasurable merit, of a fame which reached
tlie tusks of the elephants at the poiats of the compass, of high qualities praised by the learned,
Chamunda-Raya, of exalted glory. His wife, iu all accomplisliments a new Bharati, a permanent
treasury of generous qualities, known tbrougb all tbe world, was Mudiyakka, a jewel of women. To
those two were born the sons (with praises) Marapayya, Vama-deva, Echa-dandadhipa, Bichiraja,

Kesava, Govinda and Vishnu-deva. On exaraination, the junior offour yet their equal, and the senior

of two, a mine of every good quality, of unspotted fame, was Kesava- Raja. Rati, Parvvati, Arundhati
and Bharati, in beauty, glory, conjugal affection, and intelligence, his wife Pampa-devi completely put
to shame. Their son, for whose daily distribution of charity the entire number of wise men was not

sufficient, for whose devotion and pilgrimages all the holy bathing places did not suffice, for whose
circumambulationa and penances all the temples of Vishnu and the other great gods wcre too few,
for whose erection of s atras and water-sheds the world was too small, for whose fame the space
betvveen the points of the compass was too confined, Holalamarasa, obtained the worship of the good,
and was a moon to the ocean his race. To the Earth goddess in glory, to Sita-devi in devotion to

her husband, in fortune to the goddess S'ri, his wife Durgga-devi was in every way equal and simi-
lar. To those two was born, a mine of glory, Kesava-Deva, whose virtuous life the Krita-yuga made
its excuse and came to an end, whose pointed speech the arrow of Rama made its excuse and turned
aside, the daylight of whose splendid fame moonlight made its excuse and vanished. Farther verses

On his becoming angry there were brought under the orders of this ruler Kesiraja, — Sankana-
male, the famous Santalige, the powerful and fierce Tagarachche-malla’s territory, Gavatur,,
Mogala-na4, Sirivur, the Vanavasi hill-fort, Kondarate, Hayve, the celebrated Gutti, and Hettila.

(Farther verses in his praisa) As the destroyer of Mura .had the daughter of the sea and Satyabhama,
and S'ambhu had Parvvati and Gange as wives, so to Kesava, the admired Lakshmi-devi and the
fortunate beauty Siri-devi became the wives, praised in all the world. His minister (with praises)

his other hand Mammarasa and Rechcharasa. And the

accountants, — Cbattiraja, Mailara, Potarasa, Mahadeva-Nayaka, Nachi, Soma, Govinda, and

When, surrounded with all these judges, and chief officers of the royal presence, the jewel of
protection to refugees, the head-jewel of his race, the dandanayaka Kesava-Beva, protecting the
Banavase Twelve Thousand, was in the royal city Balipura,—one day, when seated in the centre
of the circle of the court, surrounled by all the ministers, royal attendants and people of the
city, — one who knew the most auspicious moments, and was acquainted with allworks of merit,

Sprung from the mind of the lotus-born (Brahma) was the lord Marichi, whose son was
Kasyapa. In his family was born the general Revana, whose son was the lord Somanatha, whose
son was Chatti-raja. His wife was Madiyakka, and their son was Rechana —
Recharasa commenced a discourse on merit, which was a defeater of evil designa, a stage for

the highe3t Lnkshmi to dance upon, a mighty wave from the bouudless ocean of heavenly joy. His
speech was as follows :

“ This (city) indeed has been progressing for raany ages and has become known in all the
; world
for the s<zfra?, pleasure garden3, temples, large tanks, and lines of water-sheds established by the former
early dan<Jadhipas. This Balipura is a place for the birth of merit. If, then, the god Kesava were
permanently established here, it would be a work of the greatest merit. If well considered, merit
which all burnt-offerings, sacrifices, incantatione and appointed acts of devotion could not procure,

would be obtained from the ceremony of suitably establisking the image of tbe supreme lord Ke,$a,va.

Moreover,— if the distinction of a gift ofland be secured, what can be said of its continually increas-
ing fruit (or roward)4 equal to the crops and vegetatiou grown thereon. For thi3 reason, wero &
Kesavapura forni bd here, nained after your lordship, and in it a temple erected to the god vira-
Kesava, — you will obtahi in the present vvorld unspotted fane, in the next slate of existence the full-

ness of ali merit, and in the end supreme fellcity.”

Whou lio thus spoke, expressing the very thoughts of the jewcl of dandanathas,— taking the words
to mind, that crovvning ovnament of dandanathas aequi red in the Southern quarter of Balipura a
tract of land iertile to produce all manner of fruit, very extensive and level as amirror, from Sarvve-
svara-pandila, priest of the Five Lingas established by the Paudavas, from its herggade Sayiyana
and senabova Kannana, and all their connections, in the presence of the settis, the cliief townsmen,
the five mathas and the three puras,— with pouring of water, — and in that pleaeant tract, arranging
and transforming to the utmost timber and stone, as if striving to add to all the variety of forms in.

which Brahma had created wood and stone, the dandadhipa Kesiraja with exceeding devotion built
for the god Kesava an abode filled with beauty and a joy to tbe sight.

And oti a large piece of land in front of that temple, this treasury of the benefits derived from
charlty, in the fullness of his heart’s pleasure, built a town and named it Virakeiavapura. Then
that jewel of dandanathas gave that town, filled with commodious houses, having cots in each

chamber containing the softest beds, and all manner of vessels, to a band of Brahmans. This done»
that Viralcesavapura was everywhere praised as the indigenous place of growth for kalpa-vrikshas,
a place fo' the continual cultivation of all the vedas, a mine of purity and virtue, a place in which to
acquire the misfc exalted merit,— and was as an anklet for the Earth goddess, set with the nine
gems.

Then, for the purpose of granting shares (

vario is praises), the moon to raise the tide in the ocean the Ganga-vamsa, Ekkalarasa •, his minister

In this (pura) the shares ( vritti ) belong to the occupants of the houses (to whichthey are attached),

nine and number of the Shika-kala, the year Kilaka, on the 7th day of
VaiSakha suddha, under the star Ijya (Pushya), on Friday, (the sun being) fully in the sign of

Cancer, (llth April 106S A.D.), Somesvara assumed, with the troops of elephants and horses, the

jewels, umbrella, and throne, the honours of the kingdom. Victory being brought to dharmma, reli-

gious associations to the good, the thrae objects of human desire to his mind, the earth being made
ijappy with distribution of honours and gifts, the time was like that of the Krita-yuga, and the begin-
ning of his reign raised the desire of the world towards him, how fortunate was he as universal em-
peror. At that juncture, — saying “A new reign ;
(a kingdom) fit for a hero ;
this is the time to invade

it I will surround Gutti and besiege it”


;
in this pride, Cholika, with an immense army, laid siege

and was doing damage. On hearing which, he said “March,” and when the cavalry force which was
sent came into contact, in a fierce battle which gave him no rest, Vira-Chola showed his back to king
Somesvara’s army and fled. So that the circle of foreign kings learning his name were impotent and
feared, enemies giving up their pride took Service as submitted with pleasure to
servants, friends

the orders of one who did not forget clemency,— so great was his glory, when the king Somesvara
was protecting the circle of the earth. When, putting down the wicked within his territories, uproot-

ing the chiefs of hili forts, evil treacherous feudatories and obstinate wrong-doers,
removing and
powerful enemies,—-having thus rid the earth of troubles, the king Bhuvanaikamalla was ruling the
kingdom :

A dweller at his lotus feet, entitled to the five big drums, the maha-mundalesvara, (with numerous
other epithets), a tiger to the deers the hili chiefs, a bee at the lotus feet of Trailokyamalla-Deva,
promoter of the kingdom of the king Bhuvanaikamalla,—'adorned with these and many other true
tities, among those reckoned as servants of king Trailokyaraalla the chief master of robes^ the chief

servant, the chief able-bodied brave, was Laks hman a, — are there any who know not this ? Iu Bhuva-
naikamalla-De va’s palace he was the chief man, he was the great manager, he was the promoter of
victory, he was the master of robes, Lakshma-nripa. A beloved servant, an active and brave servant,

a victorious servant, a servant who was indispensable tothe Chalukya kingdom, in military Service an
accomplishod servant, a striet revenue servant, a greatly honoured servant, a servant of rank, a servant
who had acquired fame, a courageous servant, a sporting servant, a servant in war, an intimate
and trusted servant of his ruler in ali circumstances,— was Lakshmana. While in two reigns the

subjects and foreigners alike praised him, two emperors in one (and the same) affectionate manuer
wrote a sasana and gave him the Vanavasi country, together with horse elephant crown and army,

and sustained him with their favour, thus Lakshmana shone throughout the world as the mandalika-
Trinetra. Junioris king Vikrama-Ganga to me ;
to that Permmadi-Deva the next junior is Vira-
Nolamba-Deva to me, to Permmadi and
;
to Singi you are the junior ;
but to you ali (the rest) are
juniors ;
thus with favour exalting him, Somesvara gave to Lakshma full and dignified rank. Laksh-

and uproots tliem thus saying, the hili chiefs, without showing (or lifting)

he speaks, how great was he.

(Farther verses in his praise). Satrughna (or the destroyer of his enemies), the valoui of Hari, An-

gada’s arm (or an ann with a bracelet), Sugriva (or with a beautiful throat), his loid s Sauniitra (or

good friend), Rama in baing without ignorance (or a joy to the among men Duryyodhana,

find in it (both) Rdmayana and Bhdrata.


Whenthus celebrated, the king Lakshma, his feet crowded with the ci’owns of prostrate hostile
kings, was ruling the Banavase Twelve Thousand, and governing in peace The minister who was : —
the chief treasury officer of the Banavase Twelve Thousand, the bearer of the burden of its affairs,

and the promoter of that kingdom, a kokile bird to the mango grove poetry, a full moon to the

milk ocean of poems, a bee in giving pleasure to the clustres of blossoms of the vine great poems in
one or in various metres, was the world-renowued dandanatha S’antinatha, a royal swan to the

lotus the supreme Jina creed. Many impurities having corrupted the nectar of the Jaina-margga,

like water and milk, with the bili of good doetrine he separated the watsr of evil creeds, and made
the good creed which issued from the mouth of Jina fit to be imbibed by the Bhavyas with joy,

hence was he called the royal swan to the lotus the supreme Jina creed. Jinapati was his supreme
lord, his guru Varddhamana-bratipati, his father Govinda-Raja, his elder brother Kannaparyya, his
ruler the king Lakshma, his younger brother VAgbhushaua Revana. A born poet, a skilful poet, an
unassisted poet, a good poet, a beautiful poet, a poet banishing falsehood, a fortunate poet, a praised

lord of poets, was Sarasvati-mukha-mukura. Filled with beautiful taste, with imagination, and with
truthful description, did he compose the Sufomdra-charita, the chief of great poets, Sarasvati-mukha-
mukura. Like Hara’s smile, the water of the celestial Ganges, the lotus, frost, snowy mountains,
the moon, the Kailasa mountain, the antumn cloud, the milk ocean, the stars, Bharati, the tusks of

the regent elephants, nectar, foam, pearl oysters, jasmine buds, Indra’s elephant, or a swan, — white
was the unspotted fame of S'antinatha. (He accumulated jewels, but instead of hiding them in a
eorner, used them for the relief of the distressed).

Thus celebrated, S‘antinatha, a swan to the lotus the Jina sasana, with modesty made petition
to his own master, king Lakshma, regarding a work of merit, (saying) — “With lines of temples of Jina,

Rudra, Buddha, and Hari, decorated with gold and jewels, Bali-nagara is well-known as the place of
five mathas. To describe the glory of the Jina-dharmma in this royal city, purified by the dwellings
of all the gods : —Among the many countries in Jambu-dvipa the is the Bharata land ;

in it is the Kuntala country, in which like perpetual spring is Banavase, and in the Vanavasi country is

Bali-grama, frequented by the Bhavyas, and in it the S'anti-tirthesa temple, praised by the gods. It

is now built of wood ;


to build it of stone would be a source of merit to you. ” Taking that to mind,
and desirous of performi og a work of merit, the king Lakshma built of stone that abode of Jina,
as if erected by Indra to endure in permanence, and aftenvards set up a stone pillar at the great
gateway of the temple, on which was inscribed a sasana containing all his names and tities, to con-
tinue as long as sun moon and stars.

Moreover in the Mula-sangha, the DeSiga-gana, and Kondakundanvaya, was celebrated


Vardhamana-munindra ,

Om. Praise of S^mbhu and of the Boar.

Govinda-Raja, head-jewel of Vaishnavas, a champion as good as his word.

The lord of S'ri, the lord of eternal salvation, having in his wornb all worlds, worshippcd by
the dwellers in heaven, reposed on his couch the body of the serpent, the eternal onc. From the
blossom of the golden lotus in the navel of the lord of S'ri sprang, as if a garden of lotuses, the
wonderful one whose face was bright as their reflection. To gratify the longing which that god had
formerly in his mind, were born the promoters of fortune, their fame illuminating all the points of the
compass, repositories of all good qualities, From those mind-born ones sprang the glorious ones the
many kings who raled the earth, pure gems of the Chalukya-kula, of unequalled forms.
After them, as the original Boar raised up in peace the earth which had been canied down to
Patala, so did he deliver as if in sport the land which had fallen into the hands of foreign kings,—

the universal emperor Taila. As if the ocean itself was the boundary of the land he acquired by the

might of his arm, the points of the compass were the boundary to his fame which outshone the moon,
taking it into the protection of his powerful arms, the promoter of the Chalukya kingdom ruled over
it, offering up the full-blown lotuses the heads of his enemies at the feet of Chandika, His praise.
Then his son Satyasraya ruled the earth surrounded with the ocean. His son Vikrama then ruled. His
younger brother Dasavarmma, stooping down like the tortoise, took up the burden of the earth with a

hundred-fuld the power of his predeccssovs. Then, slaying the herd on herd of elephants his enemies
with the lion talon his sword, his son Jayasimha ruled the earth, causingit ever to rejoice. His son
A
Ahavamalla ruled the earth, whose swelling breasts are the mountains, whose throat is adorned
with the soft stems of areca palms, whose lips are the tender leaves of sprouts. Praised by all the
A

world, Ahavama]la’s elder brother Bhuvanaikamalla then ruled the earth, and then that king’s
younger brother Vikramanka, who knew not fear. As Indra had all the regents at the points of the

compass under his sway, so he brought all kings into subjection. When he was ru’ing this middle
world, who like the terrific. Maricha did not tremble ? who did not with fear put themselves under his
A

protection ? who did not with humility prostrate themselves near his lotus feet,— the Sanvira, Ablura,

Andhra, Golla and other kings, — when lic with anger lenit his brows in a
A
frc.wn, the king Vikra-

manica. Chola lost his boundaries, Pallava held his hands full of sprouts, Andhra hunted for caves

in the mountains, Singha]a’s burnt heart was tumod to a desert, Malava was jumped over, Gurjjara’s

arm was sliattered, — thus did he treat them with his continually increasing power, Vikramadit 3'a-
Dcva. Tliero being no one there to mako a stand or light against liim, Kanclii was overwhelmed in

the slrcarn of the rut o f his elephants ;


and that if he went south from Kanchi there was no brave
king to malce war against, this alone was the rogret of this terror to hostile kings. Farther verses in
his praise. Lala fled, Choja held his eais and shook, Ivalinga, his kingdom ruined, beggedfor

alins, — -wiio would bc without fear before this disturber of the kings?

tion ot’ the earth and of increasing wealth. S'ala slew the tiger at the bidding of the muni and from
his exdamation in the Karnnata language acquired the name of Hoysala for his line. In that line was
born Vishnu, whose son was Narasimha, who thinkiug nothing of the spoils of his conquests gave them
away to supphcants. His son was vira-Ballaia, on hearing ofwhoss valour the hoarts of his enemies
were broken. When he was ruling this world, his feet illumined by the jewels in the crowns of
prostrate kings, the rut from his elephants drove away the elephants at the points of the com-
pass, so that as it had been placed on the head of S'esha, Brahma now placed it on bim ;

A dweller at that king vira-BallahPs lotus feet, brd of ali wealth, was Chavana-senapati, an
ocean of good qualities. To reckon up the sum of his good qualities what poet is able ;
his valour

and bounty caused the lion and Karna to bs forgotten. To him, the puri her of the Visvamitra-gotra,

Chavana-dandadhipati, and to Chandala-Devi was born, likc the sun in the east, the famous raya-

Siddham. Obeisance to S’iva. Victorious is the one forra filled with all the combination of
vedas, the eternal, Sthanu, 1
adorned with shining matted hair intermingled with the light of the
inoon. After him the Brahmans, the raost excellent of the twice-born, reciters of the Sama, Rig
and Yajur vedas ;
whose favour daily preserves the three worlds from the fear of sin.

By degrees the equal of Surendra in wealth, was the king Kakusthavar mma. of great intellect, sr-j

the Kadamba Senani (or god of war), the moon in the sky of a great race ( brihad-anvaya ).

Now there wasjijaraily of the twice-born, the circle of the moonlight of whose virtues was
widely extended, born in the gotra of the Haritipatra, the chief rishi Manavva of the path of
three fishis. Their hair was wet with constant bithing in the holy vvater of the final ablutions

after many kinds of sacrifices, perfect (masters of learning) in having performed the avagdha (or
bath on completion of vedic study), maintaining the (sacred) fire according to precept, and drinking
sbina juice. The interior of their house resounded with the six modes of reading (the sacred books),

preceded by the syllable om, and they grew fat on full cMturmmdsya homas, sacrificial animals
aud the funeral offerings at the parvvas. Their house was the daily resort of guests, and they
performed the bathing ani daily rite3 at the three times. They had one haiamba tree, sprung up
and blossoming in the space near their house ;
from tending which they acquired the name and
qualities of that tree, and it was the general designation of that group of Brahmans.

In the Kadamba family thu3 descenled, was an illustrious one, an eminent twice-born, named
M ayuraSarmma ,
adorned with sacred learning, good disposition, purity and other such (virtues).
He set out for the city of the Pallava kin gs. together with his guru Virasarmma, and desiring to be
proficient in prvne'ixa\, euterel into all religious centres (gha(i)kd) and (so) becarae a quick
(or ready) debater (or disputant).

There, being enraged by a sharp quarrel connected with the Pallava horse (or stables), he
said — In this Kah-yuga, Oh! shame ;
through the Kshatras Brahmanhood is (reduced to mere)

'writUn in the original with the dental n

gmss, even thoagh witk perfect devotion to the race of gurus he strive to study the s'akhd
if,

(or braoch of the veda to which he belongs), the fruition of the vedas (bralvma-siddhi) be depend-

ent on kings. What can be more painful than this ?

Therefore, with the hand accustomed to handle Teus' grass, (sacrificial) fuel, stone, ladle, ghi,
and oblations of grain, he seized flashing weapons, resolved to conquer the world.
Quickly over-
coming in fight the frontier guards of the Pallava kings, he to ok up his abode in an inaccessible
forest situated in the middle of S'r iparvvata. He levied many taxes from the great Bana and other
kings, from which causes the Pallav a kings were made to fr own. But they (those causes) also helped
him to make good his resolution and carry out his designs; and he shone surrounded by them
as
with ornaments, aud with the preparations for a vigorous carapaign.

The kings of Kauchi, his enemies, Corning (against him) eagerly bent upon war, he
journeyed
under ditficult disguises and penetrating to their camping grounds by night, came upon their ocean
of an army and smote them down like a powerful falcon. Eating the food of disaster and beiug
helpless, he made them bear (after him) the sword ia his hand. The Pallava kings having
experienced his povver, saying (to tbemselves)-—Even (our) valour and ancestry are not (fotmd)
worthy of salvation, — quickly accepted friendship with him. By
deeds in battle he his brave
brought honour kings who followed him, and he (himself) obtaiued from the Pallavas
to the
the
hononr of a crown borne in the sprouts ( pallava ) of their hands ; as- well as a territory bounded
by the water of the dancing waves, retiring and advancing, of the Amararnnava, as far as to the
lirait of Premara, with an undertaking that it should not be entered (or invaded) by otbers. And
having meditated on Senapati, together with the Mothers, he was anointed by Shadanana, whose feet
are illuinined by the crowns of the host of gods.

His son was Kanguvarmma, surrounded on high by the sacrifices of great wars, all kings bow-
ing before him, his head fanned by beautiful white chamaras.

His son, made the sole lord of the lady the Kadamba land was , Bhagiratha, the great Sagara
himself secretly born in the Kadamba-kula.

Then the son of that honoured king, of wide-spread fame, the king Raghu, of great good fortune,
like Prithu having defeated his enemies by his valour, caused the earth (prithuvi ) to be enjoyed by
his owu race. His face markedwith the weapons of his ememies in combat with opposing warriors,
smiter of enemies who withstood him, versed in the path of the s'mti, a poet, liberal, skilled in
many arts, and beloved by his subjects.

His brother, of handsome form, his voice like the sound from the clouds, diligent in (striving for)
moksha and the three objects of human desire, affectionate to his family, the king Bhagirathi, in
sport the king of beasts, his fame proclaimed him throughout the world as Kakustha. Whose war,
with the best (j yaya ) ,
kindness to the needy, just protection of his subjects, lifting up of the humble,
honouring the chief t wice - born with the best of his wealth, — his intelligence being the greatest orna-

ment to this king who was an ornament to his family, — caused the kings to consider him as Kakustha,

the friend of the gods, come here. As herds ofdeer tormented by the heat, entering into groups of

trees, take refuge in their shade and obtain relief for their panting minds, so relatives and depend-
ents exposed to injury from superiors ( jyaya obtained comfort to their troubled minds by entering his
country. With their accumulation of all manner of the essence of wealth, with gateways scented with

the ichor from lordly lusty elephants, with the sweet sounds of songs, — the goddess of Fortune con-
tentedly (or steadily) enjoys herself in his liouses for a long time. This sun among kings, by the rays

his daughters ,
roused up the beds of lotus the families of the Gupta and other kings, whose fila-

ments are affection, regard, love and respect, served like bees by many princes. He had the help of
the gods, was surrounded by the prosperous, possessed the three energies, and was seated on a

When, surrounded with ali these ministers and royal inspactors, togather with his retinue aud
the townspeople, the graat minister Kesava-dandanayaka, putting down the evil and upholding the
good in the Banavase Tvvelve Thousand, was in the royal city Balipura, —one day, seated in the middle

of his court, surrounded by ali his attendants, — tliere, one who knew the mostsuitable occasions, and
was acquaintod with ali dharmma , — From tha mind of the lotus-born (Brahma) was born the lord
Marichi, who son was Kasyapa: in his line arose Revarasi, whose son was Soma, whose son was
Chatti-raja, whose wife was Madiyakka, and their son was Rechana, — as the sun brings joy to the
lotuses, so eausing pleasure to the people’s minds, Recharasa, with eloquent and well-chosen words
commane sd a discourse on dharmma ;
in which he dea^r^bed the glory of gifts of land and gifta of

villages, the distinction of gifts of food, and the greatness of gifts of learning ;
as tollows :

“ Of all gifts a gift of land is the best, it is said this frees from all sin, this obtains svorgga so
; ,

say thelearned. Ascetics, sacri fi cers, the virtuous, deep students, thise who reverence gurus a nd gods,
will not dispate this, 0 king. 1 No gift is eq uil to gifts of land, no treasure is equal to land, no
other gift is so aUied to truth, as than untruth no sin is greater. —The merit and reward of the gift

to S’iva of villages, together with all their crops and streams, and freed from all burdens,--listen.
In crores of varied cir>, shinin; with the splendear of crores of sans, surrounded with crores of celes-
tial nymphs, filled with all he inay desire ani accompanied by /
twenty-one generations of his line,
A
shall the donor of villages come to the livara-loka, there to live for time without end in the enjoy.
ment of all delights. — Than food there is nothing bitter in the world, neither has there been nor
will there be : food is at the root o r everything ;
all depencl on food ;
a gift of food is declared to be

a gift of lite ;
a gift of lfe is a gift of all : there fore a gift of food procares the merit of all gifts,

The three world s, the foar castes, each of the four asramas, Brahmans and gods are allcomprised in

gifts of learning : whoso gives a vritti to a teacher and thus provides instruction for the people, what
gift has he not made, for procuring merit, pleasure and wealth (the three objects of human desire).
Whoso supplies students with food, unguents, and elothes, or else gives them alms, that man will liave

all his desires fullilled, of this there is no doubt. Whatsoever merit arises from pilgrimages to holy

bathing piaces, whatever merit from performing sacrifices, a crore-fold greater merit shall the man
obtain who makes gifts of learning.”

Listening to the manifold glory of the reward of so many different kir.ds of gifts, his mind being

greatly filled with joy, he inquired in what place such gifts might be worthiy made, — on which Re-

charasa spoke as follows :


— “ The gift of the golden-wombed (Brahma) who is the skilful creator of

all worlds, adorned with a collection of 32000 Brahmans, shining with the god Pranavesvara set

up by him born from the lotus womb (Brahma) and other temples, purified by the Brahma-tirttha

created by that four-faced (Brahma), surrounded by gardens yielding


all manner of fruit, is the —
beautiful village named Sthanugudha. It is a place fitted for evcry work of merit. Any good work,

done there will yield an undying reward.”

Whereupon, saying, together with his karanas, “ Be it so,” — rising up from that court asscmbly,
of the Sthanugudha village,
and coming and performing special worship to the god Pranamesvara
in the presence of the 32000 Brahmans,— who
had acquired the habits of yama, niyama , svddh/iya ,

Be it well. Iu the eartk, renowned as beiag widely filled with ali good things, encircled by the
waves of the waters of the fall ocean, the most beautiful region is Jambu-dvipa ;
to which lady as her

minds of ali psople, containing vegetables, fiuit, Sowers and gardens, shining with ponds full of lotus and
waterlilies, and with large tanks having rice fields on their banks, were many fertile countnes ;

The king of which, the lord of Banavase and the many other countries, Mukkanna Kadamba, an
embodiment of kindness to ths world, delighting in gifts, — seeking with desire in the region of the

South ( dakshiad-patha )
for the trib e of Brahanns (vipra-Wa), and not finding any,— without
delay went forth, and doing worship to the Ahiehchatra agrahara, succeeded in obtaining

thirty two Brahman fg milies purified by 12030 agnihotras, whoni sending before hitn, he brought and
estabiished in the outskirts of the city, in the great agrahara of Sthanugudha which he founded in the

tract he had noted, where were the god P ranames vara, farno is throughout the four yugas as set upby
the pure and dexterous {clvitara) Chaturmmukha (Brahtna), and the tirtthi encircled by the five Lin-

gas set up by tliat and otlier gods.

kinds of birds there imitated the sounds of reading, disputing, discussions of logic, tantras and
mantras, recital or navration of poetry, as weli as the secret sigas of sacrificers, which they had
learnt. The four vedas, their six angas, the three k aridas of mimams.i, the six systmns of logic studied

for discussions, the eighteen chief puranns and sroritis, skill in (estimating) apparent elevations,
in various kinds of buillinga, music and other elegant arts, — by the decrc-e of Madeva were
po3sessed by the Brahrnans of Tanagundur. Oblatione o: rice, ghi, curds, boiled and coagulated
milk, sacrificial animits, oblatio is of milk rice ani sigar, mille, cakes of grouud rice, abound in this

village, — thus does each pair of gods praise it throughout the niglit. 1

In that village, like Chakradhara (the discus-bearer, Vishtiu) to the learned, from their
averting cvils that threatened the village and doing good with t'ie chikra (or discus) of wisdom, was
a race (vams'a) which had acquired the cognomen of Chakras. To the 32000 a glory or an ornament,
the attracfcion of ali eyes, (with other pra s3s),
:
in that fann is race arose the Brahman lord Malei-

mayya, of the Visvamitra-gotra. Hs son was Govinda, whose son was Makimayya. He had five sons
A
Vamana, Trilochana, Lsvara, Gopa, and Nrisimln. Among thern, praises of Trilochana. As the lotus-

born (Brahma) had (formerly) set up Pranamesvara, so, like new Virinchi
o. (or Brahma), this cele-

brated Trilochana set up the god Madhava, not allowing Kamala (Lnkshmi, or his —the founcler’s-~
wealth) and Bharati (his wisdom) to be jealous of one another. His mother was of the Beonmukara-
A
vamsa. A benefactor to the world was Kesava, whose son was Echa, whose son was Vamana, whose
daughter was Machikave, the mother like Kuatr of rive sons, the wife of Makimayya.

It wa3 onca when Trilochana-deva was full of anxiety to perform a work of merit which should be
permanent, that in a dream the glorious supreme lord of Prayaga, Madhava, appeared to him, and
saying
— ‘As to the boy Pralnrada I was in the pillar, so will I be in the stone

Bharata-kshetra ;
description of its beauties. Filled with prosperous people, abundance offlowcrs, and
the brightness of bees, the Karnnata-sime was an ornament to Bharata ;
in which was the beautiiul

Kuntala-desa shine.

In succession, by valour, generosity aud agreeable manners the great Chalukya kings became
the beloved of the lady earth, to whom their fane was as an ornament of pearls. When the Chalo-
kya kings were engaged in the pleasures of heaven, after them the Rattas came into full view of the

lady earth ;
but uriving them off, Taila ruled the whole world. To the charming Taila, Satyasraya
was the son ;
his son was Vikrarna ;
to whom Ayyana was the younger (brother); whose younger

brother was Jayasimha ;


his son was Ahavama lla ;
his son was Somesv ara ;
that king’s son was
Permmadi-Deva ;
whose son was Bhulokamalla ;
lvs son was Jagadekamalla ;
whose younger brother,
in forni and splendour a glo’y to the earth, was N ur m m ad Taila i .

After that, the Lakshmi of the Chalukya kfngdom with pleasure associated with king Bijjala,
the Kalachuri ornament ;
what? is the disposition of women to seek after something new, a new
thing ? Verses in praise of his bravery. llow BijjaUVs greatness increased, say :
— the king of Simhala
carried his tray, the Nepala king was his perfumer, Kerala was his betel-bcarer, Gurjjara was his
artifice r, Turushka did horre work, Laii was his attendant servant, Tandya was his ?cripple,
Kalinga was the attendant on his elephant, — thus did they dailv do the work of servants. The king
Bijjala’3 younger brother Mail ig -Deva protected the e arth with affcction and with the might of his
arm ;
after him that king Biijala’s grandson, the king Kamlira bore up tho earth with threefold
valour; that k ng’s junior unde (aiuidta), Soyi-Deva, oftenvard.s bore up the earth. In succession
drawing to hiraself Karnnsti and Kuntala and embracit g them, and seeing his goodness reflected
mind upoti the broad Lata and the Kanchi district,2 and streteh-
in those heautiful bodies, he set his 1

ing out his loving lotus hands to them, that king Rayamurari brought so much of the world under one

possession. Ilis younger brother, of lofty qualities, Mail ngl- Deva ruled the earth ;
after him his
younger brother, but in fame the elder of all, the king Sankama protected the earth with affection.

His praise. Who was equal to (this) KiSsankamalLi ? After him Ahavamalla, Raya-Narayana, the

In saccession, liaving obtained the seven-fold wealth of empire for that king Bijjala, and caused
the same seven-fold wealth to be visibly enjoyed by the line of kings who sueceeded that em-
peror, — delighting in council, pelicy, bravery, fortune, and good character, shone Recha-dandadhi-
natha. His arm like its branch on which the vine the kingdom of the Kalachurvya lcings inight

spread, whose root was on the slopes of the shining Mandara mountain, tended by the vvise, of wide-

spread shade, distinguished by the frnits of unceasing liberality, a raind perfect in goodness, and
exalted fame, — Rechana-dandanatha shone as the only Icqlpa-Jruma in the worid. Farthcr verses in
his praise, styling him vasudhiika-bdndhavam (the only friend in the worid). A Shivatsa, of abund-

ant wealth, the son of Nagambika, an abode of pleasure, the only friend in the worid, generous, the
admired Gauri his wife, having the flag of a bull (
vrishdblia ), born the son of Narayana, — how glorious
was Rechi-dandadhipa.

Having received in succession (various) countries from the emperors of the Kalachuri-kuia, on
his desiring this Nagara-khanda, he received it from those lcings, that Recharasa, and ruled it with
exceeding glory,— how can 1 describe its prosperi ty under him? — I vvill say that it was like a lotus,
in which Banavase was like the S'ri. Its attractions (described) were like those of the spring season.

In the lotus of the line of the Kadambas, reverenced by lcings, who ruled that Nagara-khanda,
was born, an abode of ali learned arts, the king Brahma. To him and to Chnttala-Devi was born,
by his skill in all policy and his bravery agreeable (oppa) to the lady royal governmeut, Boppa.
Through Boppa-Deva the earth was freed from all enmity as a means of gaining livelihood ;
his wife
wasS'ri-Devi and they had a son the king Soma. When learning to talk, for his charming vvords he was

called Satya-pataka; when he bcgan to toddle about, was called Nigalanka-malla when his
he
;

strength began to appear, he was called Kadamba-Rudra when he acquired dominion, he was called
;

Gandara-davani (a cattle-rope to champions) ; — how great was the list of the king Soma’s valiant
qualities. That Kama is now your friend is evident from his discharging his arrcws continually at us
to make us fall at your feet —thus saying, women dropped down before him, and the vermilion on their
faces falling on the feet of this nigalada-changalva (? ruler of ankletted dancers) was the token of
the passion with which they daily did Service at the feet of king Soma. If the king Soma be angry with
us, the whole of that Banavase will become twisted like a vine round the sword in his •
liand
it is not weli for us to be caught in this trouble ;
— thus thinkiug, his enemies hed till they saw the
sea-shore, and there passed their time in peace : —how great was his valour. Another verse praising
his liberality. Ilis wife was Lachchala-I)evi. To that couple was born (with praises) Boppa His
praises, comparing him with Krishna and stating that he had an army of eighteen aksftdhini.

His royal city ( rajadhdni ) was the wealthy Bandhava-pura, in which shone S’antinatha, his feet
illuminated by the rays from the jewelled crowns of gods, Jchacharas ,
and serpents. With however
much mille he is batjied, it disappears ;
though garlanded with flowers down to his feet, thev vanish •

though bathed with hot water, he on the contrary becomes cold ; — is this not sufficient to describe
the greatness of S'antinatha,

The dcharyya of that temple was Bhanukirtti-siddhanti, praised by munis, causing the lotus
the family of his own guru to unfold by his penance.
That guru-kula was deseended from the
"ana-
dhara Gautama, after whom were many yatipatis of the Mula-sangha, in the Kondakundanvaya.
An
ornament to the lake the words of Ravanandi-siddhanti was his disciple Padmanandi, like
a lotus
( padma ) in the liand of the lady penance. His disciple was Munichandra. He e ver cnlighftened the
worid, an abode of unusual Jaina yoga,— published commentaries, made Science of gramnnar bis the
own, adopted the rules of logic, explained poems and dramas. and despised the assaults
of the fish-
bannered (the gol of love). His disciple, who displayed the umbrella of fame, was Bhanukirtti, of the
32
126 Shikarpur Taluq.

Kranor-gana, Tintrinika-gachchha, and Nunna-vamsa. His body vvet with i idnta-rasa (the spirit of
patience), his famo on the lieads of the elephants at the points of the compass, a saiddhantika-
chakravartti, a lamp to reveal the hidden treasures at the feet of Jina, follower of the ancient Jaina
yogis, was the muni Bhanukirtti. His disciple (with praises) was Nayakirtti-brati.

Having learaed the agamas from this line of gurus, the chintamani of the Jma-samaya, S'an-
kara-samauta, made S anti and was a benefactor (saikara). For the incrcase of the kingdom of the
Kadamba king Boppa-Deva, Sankara was justly cousidered the ftrst person. Ia the Nandu vam£a
which was exalted by samanta-Skinka, was born an ornament to the line, Sihgam. His wife was
Maliyakka, and their son was Ekka-gauda, whose younger brother was Kereyama. Kereyama’s wife
was . resavve, and their son was Boppa-gavunda Bis wife was Chaki-gaudi, and they had a son 8'anka
or saminta-Sanka. Several verses in his praise. His wife was Jakkanavve. Her eldest son was Soma,
whose younger brother was Muddayya.

Thus esteemed, S'ankara-samanta caused to be made for Santinatha, on account of his connec-
tio n with the place, a splendid Jina teinpb in Magudi. The image removes the impurity of the feet,
refiects in the hall and pillars the thoughts of the heart, gives life to the lines of figures, and makes
the walls appear as if moviug, — such were the comments of the people on the -linendra temple which
samanta-S'ankara caused to be made in Magundi. Beholding with approval that Jinalaya, the sole
ornament to the world, — the Tripurantaka-suri of Balipura, named Suryyabharana. having praised it,

so that this basadi was a joy (both) to the Tirtthakar and to the devout followers of S’iva, from afiec-
tion (bMva) to Bhava (3'iva), that eminent muni granted for it an excellent sthala-vritti consisting ,

of a garden of 500 areca trees, a flower garden, good rice-land and an oil-mill.

Thus providing for that work of merit to continue, and distributing his justiy acquired wealth
so as to supply the wants of his dependents, — that S'ankama-Deva'chakri marched away and joined
the king Ballala, and by Service at his lotus feet was causing the ocean of his valour to roar aloud.

Marching out, taking him by his fortunate hand, and bringing him along with him, together with
all the other danianathas, he (? the king) was for some days in the residence of Tanagunda. While
there, Rechaua-dandadhisvara came to Magudi for the purpose of worshipping the feet of Jinesvara,

together with the king Boppa and S'ankara. Having come, he worshipped the feet of Jinesvara,
did obeisance to the lotus feet of the Jina muni, inspected the Jina temple, and being greatly pleased,
the sole friend in the world praised it. Thus praising it, he granted for it Talave, with enjoyment
for three generations, and all rights, for the Jina worship.

Be it well. When, the refuge of all the world, favourite of carth and fortune, maharajadhiraja,
booQ lord of Kalanjana-pura, in valour the lord of Lanka, in courage a lion, a Brahma in song, a
sun to good warriors, the son of king Bijja, master of elephants, beloved of the goddess of victory,

Like clustres of flowers for earrings, so were the royal line of the Lunar race who formerly ruled
Kuntala with glory and miglit. Of the Somauvaya (or Lunar race) was a king who learned the use
of weapons from Asvatthama, and became proficient, — and that king Soma by the power of his

knowledge ruled the whole world. His guru Asvatthama eausing with affection the mustaches and
beard of that Soma to grow thick, as if for ornament, when Parasurama with a raging fire of fury came
to swallow up the kings, with great affection preserved him, and together with a sign (or crest), the

name of Kalachuri to that family, — this IsvaramSa.

While it was so, one day when in the joy of their liearts Asvatthama and the king Soma
went to the shining Kailasa mountain in order to worship the lord of Parvvati, — the esteemed king
Nanda with a peaceful mind was worshipping the feet of Sfiva with various flowers. He had previ-

ously for many days worshipped Sfiva with the desire of obtaining a son, and when he was filled with
distress, saying u S'ankara has not in the least favoured me with my liearPs desire,” as if saying“Do
not be distressed,” eome todcimba flowers felldown as if plucked. Seeing which, that king worshipped

Bhava with those flowers. Oa his so doing, Bhava granted him the boon. And saying “ Two brilliant

sons under the name of the Kadamba-kula will be born to this king ;
you join them and instruet them
A

became illustrious. Born in that Kadamba-kula, Kirttivannma and Maytavarmma, having acquired
the glory of ali learning from Dioni, that Kadamba-vamsa obtained fame together with all royal
wealth.

Hvara with pleasure granted a son eqaal in borhly niight to that Rayamurari-Soma, wbo should
transfer the glory ot the Kalachuryya-vainsa to the Kadamba-vamsa. Having given him, in order

that he might be reeognized as the Kadamba Rudra, Dakshina Somanatha appsared to that wife in

and marking the (child’s) forehead with viblmli

(tiag of truth), and when he was learning to walk he received the name Nigalanka-malla, — thus did
all the world praise Soma’s truthfnlness, liis ability and courage. His name husivara-sula (a stake for

liars) was the tisala (trident), his Satyapataka was the lady G-angas, his name gandara-davani (a

cattle-rope to champions) was the garland of skulis, while his appropriate name of Soma proclaims

him as Soma himself, thus does all the world praise Nigalanka-malla. Farther verses in the same

strain, and saying that hostile kings trembled before him.

things is raingled, the seed froin which the world is born do I reverence. Honourable birth, know-

Be it well v When, (with usual Kalachuryya tities), the Kalachuryya-bhujabala-chakravartti

Tribhuvanamalla-Deva was ruling the kingdom in peace and wisdom The bhujabala-chakravartti, :

a sun in the sky of the Kalachuryya-kula, by his valour forcing hostile kings to hide themselves and
retreat, removing the poverty of multitudes of people in the earth, extended his territory as far as

the shore of the ocean, the delighter in victory, the king Bijjala.

During the increase of his kingdom, of exalted fame, his son-in-law Barmma-dandadhiSa ruled
-the famous Banavasi country with glory. Putter down of the evil-disposed who trespass over the
ocean of dharmma, and an asylum of the good, Barmmarasa of Bandanike gained fame in the world.

nacle of the temple, he in many ways increased his fame in the world. He also set up a linga,

with the associated gods, in Bandanike.

Having thus done, after that, Macheya-Nayaka having in the name of his rulerthe maha-manda-
lesvara Sovi-Devarasa given it the name of the god Somesvara,— the king, for the decorations of the

god, for the ornamental work and tower of the temple, and for the food of the ascetics there, made-

grants of land (specified), and in Aralur a tribute of one honnu ,

(%), Sala, the tiger,” from which time the kings became Hoysalas. Thenceforth the cane being
on their tiger flag, the kmgs of the Hoysala line seemed in the cane to be holding up (a warning)

finger to the fle 3ing hostile kings in battle. Like a sun rising upon the castern mountain the
Hoysala-vamsa, dispersing the darkness his enemies, &e., was born]"the king Vinayaditya. After
he had ruled, his son Ereyanga kept ali the world cool in the shade of his white umbrella. In
bodily pleasure as greater than Rati’s husband ( ereyanc/am ), in great glory than S'achi’s husband
( ereymgam), in lofty might of arm than Siri’s husband ( ereyangam ), did Ereyanga shine. Their
A
forms like the god of love, unequalled wrestlers, were the sons born to Ereyanga’s wife Echala-
Devi, — Ballala, B.tti-Deva and Udayaditya. Like the flaming Central eye of Purahara’s three eyes
among the three brothers, by his great valour he became the king, in the form of Vishnu, the king
Vishnu. First taking into his arm the Lakshmi of the Hoysala kingdom which was bis inheritance,
as his strength increased he imposed his commands on ali the points of the eompass, and seizing
Talakadu, became the first to the Ganga kingdom, — this pro moter of the Yadu-vamsa, the king
Vishnu. To him ana to Lakshmi-Devi was born, with the glory of the god of love, the king Narasimha.
His glory spread over the lands of his enemies, the vine his sword was nourished with the flesh of

hostile armies, his barmers fluttered in the wind of the sighs of his enemies’ wives, the world was
cooled by his white umbrella, — what a marvel was the king Narasimha. In his ciear eyes, the fisk

in the force of his
own yoga, Buddha ;
in putting down the evil, Kalki ; — thus combining in himself the ten incarn-
ations, was born the king Ballala. These elephants are what Magarega (or the Magira king) gave
in war ;
these are the elephants Chola sent ;
these rutting elephants are what Kadava-Raya seized
from Pandya ; — see, said with admiration at Narasimha’s power, trembling on account of their
enmity, the envoys of Simhana, Lala and Gaiila. Saying, what word is this that I am called
master of elephants when there are no troops of elephants of which I am master, — the king Narasi-
mha, marching without stopping for a hundred gdvudas ,
overthrowing formidable enemies in the east,
captured the hundred elephants with which Magara came against him, and hrought them in with
his horse.

In the days when Vikrama-Raya was ruling the earth, (there was) Bilala Somagonda-gauda’s

Chelugur Chelve-Sugandhe was the name of that wornan. Attached to Kampaja, which in

were suns in honour, came, having left their land, in the following manner ;
— The report of what they

were going to do, and that they were abandoning their land, having reached Vikrama, (he said),

become very powerful in the earth and it becoming known to ali, they considered, and advised
the gauda, saying— “It is pot right that we should fall into this sin, and disgrace the Siva religion :

it is better to escape in whatever way we can.” The gauda, pleased in his mind, sent for his brothers

and relatives, and said, “We must at once depart, quiek as thought : think that if we get a (bad) name
in Jambu-dvipa it will be ruin to our family.” The cowherd Keta-gonda now carried to the gauda

the offer, ‘If you give up the woman, I will drive over to you a thousand cows of each colour.’ On
hearing that, the gauda was filled with rage, his mustaches danced upand down, his eyes grew red,
brows were knotted together, and he therqupon said Come quickly, those who intend to follow

those who will not come, do as you please.’ At this word the tumuit of the eighteen castes and
the hundred and one families arose, and they yoked their carts. Of carts 700, ga (?gaudas) 75,
with 6000 of Kampala, and 3000 sheep of Kampala, — these carts, grinding the earth, set out.

(Here follow lists of the manya-marttandas, gaudas, and ayagaras who went). All these went with

the gauda, and broke the ground with their departure, 70 cart-loads of families, who, by means of
those who had no carts, threw from time to time food to the kites and crows, and marched on as if

to break the world in two, until they came near the Bhagirathi.
The report being then carried to the king, he was in a great rage, and ordering out his forces,
directed them saying, — “Do not let them go : stop them, seize and bring them back?” Onthat, Batti
sent a message, saying, “Cross over the river at once. ” Hearing which, Bilala saying (to himself), the

people with all their retinue, cows, children, and the poor will bemade prisoners on my account, — with
fierce valour calling together the chief men, came near to the great river (or Mahanadi), spread his cloth,
and said, — “Show me salvation, mother ;
I will not leave your protection ;
show your merey.” On
which, saying, ‘Who is it beseeching me ?’ the great river (or Mahanadi) gave them passage. At
that time the king^s army came to seize them, and the fierce in war, the preserver of all the people,
the brave Bilala opposed them, and fought for 8 days. Meanwhile the cows, carts and people crossed
over, while a stream of blood from those who feli in the attacking force ran to the great river (or
Mahanadi). After that, by the favour of various gods (named), they pushed on and halting, blessed

named it Arisikere.

After that they formed two divisions. Padmana-Nayaka and Bala-Nayaka with all their party
went to the direction of Chennanagiri, When Somagonda-gauda, Chelugur Chaudamute, andhisyoung-
er brothers Kendala and Dumma-Raja, and all their subjects were rising up, the god Bhairava stood
there. Going forth, and doing three days’ journey in one, they halted and made an encampment. The
early rains ( mungaru ) then set in, and the note of the kogilu (or cuckoo) was heard, They therefore
gave the place the name of Kogalur and built a village. Thence going forth, they burnt incense ( dupa )
to the god, and that (place) became Dupada-maradi. And at the place where the leaves on which
they ate 2 feli, they made a village called Bayatanagere. For that village his son named Hande-So-
maiya was made the gauda, and he remained there. Then follows a list of village artisans appointed

to Kogalur by Bilala Somagonda-gauda, who stationed his younger brother Bimagonda there, and
went on with another division. And where the carts with families s'o;>pel he named made a village

Baiyakakanur, and appointed to it Bala-dore. In the same manner Chelugur Chandamute, Kendula
and Dumma-Raja met and had a consultation with all the people, and then made the village Nitti-

gere, and appointed to it Sogadanora.

When they were leaving Kampala, the Raja-linga drew itself away and stopped there. The
reason for its drawing itself away was that Chelugur Cbandumute’s wife became with child. Her
