KALIKALA SARVAJNA HEM CHANDRACHARYA The king proclaimed -
The revered Acharya has made Gujarat's glory immortal by writing this unique grammar. This grammar should be taught in all schools
in Gujarat.
Sire! For this, copies of the book
and scholars should be pre
pared first.
On the King's instructions many scholars were taught the new grammar and 300 transcribers were employed to make copies of the book.
Thus the work of creating a good and complete grammar was accomplished. Siddharaj gifted copies of the book to heads of every religious sect.
He also sent copies throughout the country and also to Iran, THE PROPHECY Shrilanka, and Nepal.
King Siddharaj had no child. He went to numerous pilgrimages; asked many astrologers; resorted to yantra, mantra, tantra, etc. but his wish was not fulfilled. One day he revealed his mental agony before Hemchandracharya -
Gurudev, will I be blessed with a son or
not? Who will rule Gujarat after me? Please solve this
riddle.
