(3) There is no clear mention in any text or inscription that indicates that Maghanandi, Dharasen, Pushpadanta, Bhootbali, and Gunadhar, Nagahastin, Aryamakshu, Yativrishabha, and Uccaranaacharya, all or any of them, were in the lineage of Kundakunda or came after him. There are many lists of Acharyas who came after Kundakunda, but none of them mention these Acharyas, which makes it difficult to believe that they came after Kundakunda. However, in one place, in the inscription number 105 (254) of Shravanabelagola, these sentences are found:
"Pushpadanta and Bhootbali, both were disciples of Alik, and from them, Arhadbali ruled, as if two new shoots have been taken by the Kalpavriksha to give fruits to the people of the world. These Arhadbali, due to the nature of time, divided the original Sangha, which is the Kundakundanvaya, into four parts, and those divisions are four Sangha named Sen, Nandi, Dev, and Singh. Whoever considers the real difference in these four Sangha is a Kudrusti."
