## Edition

⟨1⟩ therāṇa(ṃ) Ā(r)yyas(e)nāṇa(ṃ) kaṇha(se)⟨2⟩lavāsiṇa(ṃ)Ara(ha)ntāṇaṃ
cha(la)⟨3⟩bhiṁñāṇaṃ mah(āca)ri(yāṇaṃ) th(ūbha)[ṃ]

## Translation

Stūpa of the venerable Noble Sena, resident of Kaṇhasela, an arhat
possessed with the six super-knowledges, a great master.

## Commentary

⟨3⟩ mah(āca)ri(yāṇaṃ). This part of the third line is affected by a deep
horizontal crack, which affects legibility. The reading -(ca)- is thus
uncertain. The present reading is informed by the parallel gaṇācariyāṇaṁ
in KI00074.
