## Aripuran
"After Amoghvarsha, Akalavarsha became the sovereign king, whose prowess terrified the sun, making it behave like the moon in the sky."
He was also a great and mighty warrior, like Akalavarsha. In the donation inscription of Krishna Raja III, found near a well in Wardha city, his valor is highly praised. The meaning of the verse found there is:
"Sri Krishna Raja, the son of Amoghvarsha, who had brought under his control the kings of Gurjar, Gauda, Dwarasamudra, Anga, Kalinga, Ganga, Magadha, and other countries."
In the praise of Uttarapurana, Gunabhadracharya has also written a lot in praise of him, saying that his towering elephants drank the water of the Ganges River, which was stained by their own intoxicating juice. This indicates that his kingdom extended to the banks of the Ganges in the north and to Kanyakumari in the south.
He ascended the throne around Shaka Samvat 767 and died around Shaka Samvat 833.
The mention of Lokavitya-Lokaditya is found in the second praise of Uttarapurana by Lokasen Muni, the disciple of Sri Gunabhadra Swami. He states that when Lokaditya, the feudatory of Akalavarsha, ruled the entire Banabas country from his capital Vankaapur, this sacred and supreme Purana was worshipped by the devout in a certain Muhurta of Shaka Samvat 220. This makes it clear that Lokaditya was a feudatory of Akalavarsha or Krishna (III) and the king of Vanavasa. His father's name was Vankeyaras. He was a Chelldhvaj, meaning his flag had the symbol of a kite or a hawk. His capital was Bankaapur. When the Mahapurana was worshipped in Bankaapur in Shaka Samvat 820, he was the reigning king. It is not certain how long he ruled on the throne.
The praise of Uttarapurana, which is extensively used in "Acharya Jinsen and Gunabhadra Prakaran", is found in the last, i.e., the seventeenth chapter of the said text. Acharya Jinsen, the earlier scholar mentioned in Aripuran, has mentioned these scholars who came before him in his Adipurana: 1. Sikhasen, 2. Samantabhadra, 3. Shridatta, 4. Yashobhan, 5. Prabhachandra, 6. Shivakoti, 7. Jatacharya (Sihanandi), 8. Kagabhikshu, 9. Dev (Devanandi), 10. Bhattakalaanka, 11. Shripal, 12. Patrakesari, 13. Vadisinha, 14. Virsen, 15. Jayasen, and 16. Kaviprameswar.
It is necessary to provide some information about these Acharyas here.
Sikhasen - There have been many scholars with this name, but this is the same Siddhasen who is the author of the Prakrit text called "San Di. Prakaran". He was a distinguished scholar of Nyaya Shastra. His time should be the 6th-7th century Vikram.
