Jayachandra
One of the five pupils of Somasundara, who was the pupil of Derasundara. Devasundara and Somasundara are Nos. 49 and 50 in the Tapâgachch hapattávali. It is there stated that Somasundara had four pupils-Munisundara, Jayasundara with the biruda Krishnasarasvati, Bhuvanasundara, and Jinasundara. Our author Ratnaśekbarasûri (No. 52 in the same list) gives him the five pupils--Munisandara, Jayachandra, Bhuvanasundara, Jinasundara, and Jinakîrti. The Jayachandra and Jayasundara of the two lists are the same. Compare Klatt, Ind. Ant. p. 256, note. He is the anthor of the Pratikramakrama. 3, App. p. 229. No. 1291 of this Report's Collection is a copy of the Pratikramakrama, in which it is stated that that work was composed in Samvat 1506. The author calls himself Jayachandra, a pupil of Somasundara. (“Nayachandra” in bottom line, 3, App. p. 229, is a mistake for “ Jayachandra." There is no commentary by Nayachandra. The mistake has already been corrected by Weber, II. p. 912, note.)
