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.
