Texts
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.

Summary: King: Jaṭilavarman alias Tribhuvanachakravarttin Parākrama-Pāṇḍya alias Kulaśēkharadēva Pāṇḍya Year Śaka 1419 śu. di. 3, uttiram = 1497 A.D.
This inscription records that a certain Nallaperumāḷ Śaivasikhāmaṇi Bhaṭṭaṉ, who was a priest at the Viśvanātha temple at Dakshiṇakāśi in Teṉṉāri-nāḍu forfeited his right of worship in the temple for inexplicable reasons, in the fifteenth regnal year of the king. The privileges appended with the right of worship such as the ownership of house, gardens and its surroundings and also one and half mā of tax-free land at Ilāñjapaṟṟu, owned by the temple, and other privileges were now conferred on Pichcha Bhaṭṭaṉ Paḍikkāśuvaittāṉ belonged to Bhāradvāja-gōtra and Bōdhayana-sutra. The latter was also conferred the right of cultivation of the lands given. It appears that when the kinsmen (ñādi) of Śaivaśikāmaṇi Bhaṭṭaṉ refused to accept the responsibility (of worship in the above temple after the latter lost his right) this arrangement had been made. It is also stated that the new priest should discharge his duties while enjoying the privileges.
Koḍumalūr-uḍaiyāṉ figures as the signatory of the record.
