C. S. K. RAO SAHIB-Sri Gupta. (QJMS, Vol. 24, No. 3, 1934, Bangalore).
Pp. 219-21. I-Tsing, the Chinese pilgrim (671-695 A.D.) mentions a great king, Sri Gupta, Jainasena in his Harivamia (783 A.D.) refers to the Guptas as having begun their rule 720 years after Mahavira's nirvana, i.e. according to Jinasena 720and he is nearly a century later than I-Tsing. How could two inde pendent traditions one a century later than the other-refer to a king who ruled exactly in the same year 192 A.D. We may believe the accuracy of the Buddhist and Jain.
