Texts database last updated .

This interface allows you to look for texts in the DHARMA collection. The search form below can be used for filtering results. Matching is case-insensitive, does not take diacritics into account, and looks for substrings instead of terms. For instance, the query edit matches "edition" or "meditation". To look for a phrase, surround it with double quotes, as in "old javanese". Searching for strings that contain less than three characters is not possible.

Per default, all metadata fields are searched (except "lang", see below). Metadata fields are (for now): "title", "editor", "editor_id", "author", "summary", "lang", "repo", "ident". You can restrict search to a specific field by using a field prefix, as in editor:manu or title:"critical edition". Several clauses can be added successively, separated with whitespace. In this case, for a document to be considered a match, all query clauses must match. Try for instance editor:manu title:stone.

Note the use of quotation marks: the query editor:"emmanuel francis" matches all documents edited by Emmanuel Francis, but the query editor:emmanuel francis matches all documents edited by someone called Emmanuel and that also include the name Francis in any metadata field.

The "lang" field is special. If you look for a string that contains two or three letters only, as in lang:en or lang:san, it is assumed to refer to an ISO 639 language code, and an exact comparison is performed. If you look for a string longer than that, it is assumed to refer to a language name and the above-mentioned substring matching technique will be used instead. You can consult a table of languages here.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This is much damaged. It seems to register an endowment providing for the maintenance of a perpetual lamp and for the sacred bath of the deity in the temple, and for special offerings on the day of Śadayam. The alphabet of the record is early, and hence the inscription may be assigned to the reign of Āditya I.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This records an agreement by the ūravar of Tiruvārūr to supply an uri of oil every day for burning 2 perpetual lamps before the god Tiru-Aṟaneṟi-Uḍaiyār, for an endowment of three vēli of land at Mēnmaṅgalam made by a certain Kurukālaṉ Tirumūlaṭṭānat-Toṇḍar. The standard measure is called Tirunīlakaṇṭaṉ. The writing belongs to about the twelfth century A.D.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This records an endowment of a piece of land under the tank Tigaittiṟal-ēri by Tiruppondai-Sōmāśiyār (Sōmayāji), son of Kumāraḍi-Bhaṭṭa-Vājabhējiyār (Vājapēyayājī) of Maṇaṟppākkam, a member of the āḷuṅgaṇam of Rājamalla-chaturvēdimaṅgalam of Tiruvēgambapuram in Dāmar-kōṭṭam, for the daily feeding of a Brahman at mid-day in the temple of Śrīpondai-Perumāṉaḍigaḷ. The gift was entrusted to the gaṇavāriya-perumakkaḷ of the temple. This is possibly an inscription of Āditya I. In the M.E.R. 1916, II, 8, the village has been surmised to owe its origin to one of the Western Gaṅga kings named Rājamalla. No inscriptions of that dynasty have however been found at this place; but there is one actually of a Rājamalla at Vaḷḷimalai in the same district (No. 6 of 1895).

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This is an incomplete record. It mentions Bakuḷam evidently a village in [Kāṉa]ppēr-kūṟṟam in Pāṇḍi-nāḍu. The subdivision occurs in the Bigger Śinnamanūr Plates as Tirukkānappēr-kūṟṟam (S.I.I. III 4. p. 462). The alphabet is early and the the record may be one of Āditya I.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: The beginnings of lines of this inscription are built in. This records an agreement by the sabhā of Aparājita-chaturvēdimaṅgalam (evidently the ancient name of Takkōlam), to burn a perpetual lamp in the temple of Tiruvūṟaṟkaṟṟaḷi-Mahādēva for 30 kaḻañju received by them. The name of the donor is lost. This seems to be a record of Āditya I who is known from the Tiruvālaṅgāḍu Plates to have wrested the Toṇḍai-nāḍu from the Pallava Aparājitavarman (S.I.I., III, p. 386).

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This is damaged and incomplete and seems to record an endowment in land for the maintenance of 12 servants in the temple together with 2 kaṇkāṭṭi (supervisors ?) and 2 gardeners, made by Ulagaperumāḷ (king) at the request (of the residents of the village or the temple authorities ?). The early script and the high regnal year of Rājakēsarivarman seem to point to Āditya I as the king intended.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This inscription is much damaged. It seems to record an endowment, the nature of which is not clear, to a Jaina shrine called Gaṅgaśūrapperumbaḷḷi at Rāja[kēsari]puram by Śrī Gaṅgaraiyaṉ. It also mentions another shrine called Maiśuttapperumbaḷḷi in the same place and a paḷḷichchandam land situated in Tiruviḍaikkaḻi.

Summary: This records a gift of 8 mā of land in the dēvadāna village Ūragaṉkuḍi after reclamation from its fallow condition, by Vēṭṭakkuḍāṉ Vaḍugaṉ Mādavaṉ of Poygaikkuṟuviḍam by order of Paḻuvēṭṭaraiyaṉ Kumaraṉ Maṟavaṉ, for a perpetual lamp in each of the two shrines in the temple of Amanigandarvva-Īśvaragarattu-Mahādēva. The chief is probably identical with Kumaraṉ Kaṇḍaṉ mentioned in No. 352 above [[A.R. No. 352 of 1924]]. The inscription seems to be assignable to Rājarāja I.

Summary: This records an endowment of 15 kaḻañju of gold by Madhurāntakaṉ Gaṇḍarādittaṉ for the daily supply of an uḻakku of oil for a lamp in the temple of Tirumālpēṟṟāḻvār, to be made by the ūrār (assembly) of Śerugūr in Valla-nāḍu, a division of Dāmar-kōṭṭam, in whose charge the amount was left by the donor. The inscription is evidently one of Rājarāja I since the donor largely figures in the other records of this king.

SII 1.32: original edition by Eugen Hultzsch – PART I. SANSKRIT INSCRIPTIONS. I. INSCRIPTIONS OF THE PALLAVA DYNASTY. No. 32. A PALLAVA INSCRIPTION FROM AMARĀVATĪ. Reprinted from the Madras Journal of Literature and Science for 1886-87.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: The subjoined Sanskrit inscription is engraved on three sides of an octagonal pillar,1 which was excavated at Amarāvatī by Mr. R.Sewell and sent by Dr. Burgess to the Madras Museum. The top of the pillar and some letters of the uppermost lines of the inscription have been broken off. The inscription has hitherto remained a puzzle, as each line seems to end incomplete. Finding, that the first words of some lines were connected with the last words of the following lines, I was led to suppose that the inscription must begin from the bottom and not from the top. Curiously enough, this is really the case. If the inscription is read upwards, we find that it consists of eleven complete verses and of a prose passage, the end of which is lost through the mutilation of the pillar at the top. The inscription opens with an invocation of Buddha and with a mythical genealogy of Pallava, the supposed founder of the Pallava dynasty. [[genealigical table]] Brahman. Bharadvāja. Aṅgiras. Sudhāman. Droṇa. Aśvatthāman, married to the Apsaras Madani. Pallava. Verse 8 gives a popular etymology of the name Pallava. Then there follow the names of seven Pallava kings:— 1. Mahendravarman, son of Pallava. 2. Siṁhavarman I., son of 1. 3. Arkavarman, son of 2. 4. Ugravarman. 6. Nandivarman, son of 5, Śrī-Siṁhavishṇu. 7. Siṁhavarman II. The inscription contains no information about the relationship, which existed between 3 and 4, 4 and 5, 6 and 7. Neither does the genealogy agree with the lists derived by Mr. Foulkes2 and Mr. Fleet3 from other Pallava inscriptions, although similar names of kings occur in them. For these reasons great care should be taken in using the above list for historical purposes. From the incomplete prose passage at the end of the inscription, we learn that, on his return from an expedition to the north, Siṁhavarman II. came to a place sacred to Buddha, which was called Dhānyaghaṭa (line 38) or Dhānyaghaṭaka (line 47). The lost part of the pillar must have recorded a donation, which the king made to Buddha. Dhānyaghaṭa or Dhānyaghaṭaka is evidently identical with Dhānyakaṭa or Dhānyakaṭaka, “corn-town,” the well-known old name of Amarāvatī. The use of gha instead of ka can perhaps be explained by the Tamil habit of softening a single consonant between two vowels.4

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This records a tax-free gift of land at Maṅgalakuḍi by a Veḷḷāḷa named Nakkapirāṉ of Peruṅkkūṟṟakuḍi, as a provision for offerings during the ardhajāma (midnight) service in the temple of Perumāṉaḍigaḷ at Tiruviśalūr (a part) of Amaninārāyaṇa-chaturvēdimaṅgalam. Avaninārāyaṇa is a well known title of Pallava Nandivarman III. The date of the record is given as ‘third’ in words with however the numeral 20 inserted above it.

It records some regulations banning the service of women (for conducting the festivals in the temple) as decided by the mahāsabhā of Kāvidipākkam alias Avaninārāyaṇa-chaturvēdimaṅgālam in Paḍuvūr-kōṭṭam, on an order received by them from the king through Veṇbaikuḍināṭṭu-Vēḷār. ‘Avaninārāyaṇa’ is known to have been a biruda of Pallava Nandivarmān III. We learn that the assembly comprised the committees ūrvāriyam, udasīnavāriyam, ērivāriyam and the kaḻanivāriyam and of the bhaṭṭas and visishṭas of the village.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This registers a gift of 30 cows for the maintenance of a perpetual lamp in the temple of Śrīyāṉaikkal-Perumāṉaḍigaḷ at Tiruveḷḷaṟai by Śembiyaṉ Maḻanāṭṭu-Vēḷāṉ alias Koṟṟaṉ Māṟaṉ of [Kai]kaḷūr. The gift was left in charge of the mūlaparishat. The high regnal year of the king and the early script of the inscription make it attributable to Āditya I.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: The inscription is slightly damaged. Like the above this is also assignable to Āditya I. It records that a quarter vēli of wet land which had been endowed by the sabhā of Dantivarma-maṅgalam previously for the repairs of the śrīvimāna of the Saptamātṛi temple, was now assigned by them for a flower-garden to the (same ?) temple. The name Dantivarma-maṅgalam found for Ālambākkam in the inscription suggests that the village should have been founded by the Pallava king Dantivarman, who is known to have held sway in these regions and is also surmised to have built the Kailāsanātha temple at this place. (M.E.R. for 1910, II, 7.)

Summary: This records a gift of 30 kaḻañju of gold left with the ‘Thirty-two’ (members of the assembly), for burning a perpetual lamp in the temple of Mahāḍēva at Tiruppaḻanam a dēvadāna in Viṟai-kūṟṟam, by Śembiyaṉ Ārkāṭṭu-Vēḷāṉ alias Maṟavaṉ Nakkaṉ the headman of Puriśai in Parivaṇḍatturai a subdivision of Ārkāṭṭu-kūṟṟam. Evidently an inscription of Āditya I.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This inscription records a gift of 100 kāḍi of paddy by a lady named Pugaḻttuṇai-Aḍigaḷ mother of one Viḻuppēraraiyar Ayyakuṭṭi-Aḍigaḷ, which was left in charge of the body called kulaṅkiḻārkaḷ of Tiruvakkārai. With the annual interest of 25 kāḍi accruing on this endowment, its members were to provide for the sacred bath of the deity Tirukkāṟkaṟṟaḷi-Perumānaḍigaḷ on the days of the asterism Chitrā in Chittirai month and of Śravaṇa (Ōṇam) in Puraṭṭādi every year. The high regnal year of the king with however no qualifying epithet for him would make the inscription assignable to Āditya I, but the characters seem to be later.

Summary: This is engraved on the same pillar as No. 205 above of the king’s 10th year. It states that the dēvariḍaichchāṉṟār (temple servants) agreed to measure an uri of ghee every day for burning 2 lamps in the temple, for 180 sheep presented by two persons Śātta Śāṉṟaṉ and Śātta Dāmōdiraṉ both natives of Amaṇappulam in Malaināḍu. The alphabet is early and the record may be of the time of Āditya I.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This should also be an inscription of Āditya I. It records the gift of a gold necklace of rudrāksha beads with a clasp (?) set with diamonds, rubies and sapphire for the god by Gaṅgamā[r*]ttāṇḍa alias Śembiyaṉ Pṛithivigaṅgaraiyar, son of Mahādēvar (the chief) of Paṅgaḷa-nāḍu. This donor has been surmised to be the brother of Aḻiviṉ Kaḷḷarasi alias Śembiyaṉ Bhuvanigaṅgaraiyar of Nos. 93 and 177 of 1931 and Śembiyaṉ Prithivigaṅgaraiyar of No. 139 of 1928 (M.E.R. 1931, II, 8).

It seems to register a sale of land by the temple authorities of Tirumālpēṟu to Śōḻamādēviyār alias Pañchavaṉ Mādēviyār, queen of Perumāḷ Mummuḍi-Chōḷa (Rājarāja I), who endowed it to the temple for two perpetual lamps. Among the boundaries of the land is mentioned a land endowed by Madhurāntaka-Gaṇḍarādittaṉ for the sacred bath of the deity.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: The writing of this inscription is early and the record may be assigned to Āditya I. It registers the gift of a lamp-stand and an endowment of 25 kaḻañju of gold for burning a perpetual lamp in the temple of Mahādēva at Tirutturutti, by Kāvidi Subrahmaṇyaṉ of Śuḍuvūr in Peruvaḻiyūr-nāḍu a subdivision in Pāṇḍi-nāḍu.

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This is a record of Āditya I, mutilated at the right end. It seems to register the gift of a golden fore head plate (evidently to an image in the temple) by a lady, the wife of (prince) Kannaradēva. The gift was left in charge of the nagarattār of Maṇavūr. Kannaradēva is surmised to have been a son of Āditya and brother to Parāntaka (M.E.R. 1895, p. 5).

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: The inscription is damaged. It seems to record a gift of 10 kaḻañju of gold for a perpetual lamp in the temple of Tiruppondaip-Perumāṉaḍigaḷ at Rājamallachaturvēdimaṅgalam by Ashṭamūrtti, a resident of the village, and an endowment in land by his wife (name lost), after purchase, for the daily feeding of a Brāhmaṇa in the temple. The inscription has been assigned to Āditya I on account of the high regnal year of the king and the identity of the donor with the one figuring in No. 224 of 1915 of the time of Parāntaka I (M.E.R. 1916 II. 9). It is surmised that the village owed its origin to Rājamalla an early king of the Western Gaṅga dynasty. (See No. 292 above.)

Emmanuel Francis.

Summary: This records a gift of 10 kaḻañju of gold and a bronze lamp-stand for burning a perpetual lamp in the temple of Perumānaḍigaḷ at Tirumaḻavāḍi by Iḷaṅgōṉ Pichchi, the Senior queen of Śōḻapperumāṉār and the daughter of Vallavaraiyar. In M.E.R. 1920, II, 9, this inscription has been attributed to Rājarāja I, on account of the details of date given in it, viz., Tulā, Saturday, Bharaṇi. This seems to receive support from the mention of Vallavarayar in the record, pusumably the same as Vallavaraiyar Vandyadēvar the husband of Rājarāja’s elder sister Kundavaiyār, both of whom largely figure in the Tanjore inscriptions of Rājarāja. It is curious however that in a record of such a late period of his reign like this one, the historical introduction of the king should have been omitted. It may be mentioned here that the details of the date also correspond to A.D. 897, October 15, which falls into the reign of Āditya I. ‘Vallavaraiyar’ might refer to the Rāshṭrakū a king of that period (See Ep. Ind. Vol. XXVI, p. 233).

The high regnal year of the king suggests that the inscription might be one of Āditya I.

Summary: This records an endowment of land left in charge of the sabhā of the village Nityavinītamaṅgalam, after making it free of all taxes by payment of a lump-sum to it, by a certain Brahmādhirāja for burning a perpetual lamp in the temple of Īśvara-Bhaṭṭāraka at Tiruttavattuṟai in Iḍaiyāṟu-nāḍu. The early characters of the inscription and the high regnal year of the king make the record assignable to Āditya I.
