बारसअंगवियाणं चउदसपुव्वंगविउलवित्यरणं । सुयणाणि भद्दबाहू गमियगुरुभयवओ जयओ।
-UM413 8.2. (utafize: Ed. Pt. Pannalal Soni, Mänikyacandra-Digambara-Jaina
-Granthamälä, Vol. 17, Bombay, V. S. 1977 (A.D. 1927], p. 127.) 81. Unfortunately, the original article by A. M. Ghatage is not handy. If my memory
does not play me false, it had appeared in one of the issues of the Jaina Gazette. 82. Hence some scholars have concluded that he was a later and hence different
Bhadrabāhu about whose date the opinions widely differed. 83. See here the entire text of the inscription cited under annotation 31. 84. However, we must remember that, at least three temples were built on that hill
top to the north of this earliest inscription engraved on the surface of the groundrock there. Could these have covered and hence concealed beneath them some
still earlier inscriptions ? 85. At least I so for have not come across the examples of the personal names ending
with 'candra' in the earlier context. 86.

Samsodhitasāhityamälä, Vol. 1., Bambai (Mumbai, Bombay) 1956, p. 74. 87. For elucidation, see Premi, "Virasena, Jinasena aur Gunabhadra," Jaina Sāhitya.,
p.. 137 88. Provided, of course, the belief/tradition recorded there is sufficiantly accurate.

- fasit Querit 8-8868 90. I have based this passage on the information noted in the Introduction by
Pt. Vijayamurti-his compilation earlier referred to here-as also the Introduction by the editiors of the Epigraphia Carnatica, Vol. I, (sec. ed.), Mysore, and
the observations thereof. 91. I have based this passage also on the information noted in the Introduction by
Pt. Vijayamurti in the introduction by the editiors of the Epigraphia Carnatica,
Vol. I, Mysore and the observations thereof. 92. Bhagaveti Ārādhanā, p. 707.
