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", "script", "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.

DHARMA_INSSIIv01p0i0026.
Emmanuel Francis.
Summary: On a fragment of slab built into the platform in front of the Kumārasvāmin temple. Nityavarsha. (India III).
This inscription engraved in early Nāgarī characters consists of three sections (A, B and C) of which the third (C) is engraved in a different hand and does not appear to belong to the first two.
Section A belongs to the Rāshṭrakūṭa king Nityavarshadēva Pṛithvī-vallabha who is stated to have meditated at the feet of Akālavarshadēva. The Śaka year cited at the beginning is lost due to damage and Vikrama, Māgha, śu. Rathasaptamī, Sunday, are the only details of date available (See Introduction).
Section B seems to deal with the exploits of a chief called Aiyaṇaiya and refers to a princess of the Sindu (for Sindhu ?) family. The date is lost here also.
Section C mentions Dhōra and describes the achievements of the two chieftains belonging to the Chālukya family, Balavarman and his son, Daśavarman. Kāñchi and the planting of the two teeth of a tusker are mentioned in this connection.
