SURYA DYNASTY.
139 33. This (eulogy) inscription about the seventh repair was composed by a Pandita called Låvanya Samaya, who was a great man.
34. May this Karmaraja be prosperous for ever, who, at the desire of Sri man Bahadoor Râjâ went to Satrunjaya, built a temple, installed an idol of Arhant Sri Risabhadeva, and who ceremoniously made this scventh repair in this Kaliyuga, and who is therefore) like the crown of the cheerfull family of the Dosis.
35. None has done so good an act as Karmaraja; because in the territory of a Mlechhchha he made this seventh repair at the desire of the King.
36. At this time niany good men performed many good and holy deeds; (but) the merchant called Karma only caused to be made this repair on the summit of Vimaladri.
37. Oh! the row of temples, prepared for these idols on the Satrunjaya by the rising-sun-like Karma on the sunnit of the Udayachala-like Sri Chitrakuța, stands in full prominence.
36. Oh! the white fame of Sri Karmaraja living in Sri Medapatadesa spreads in innumerable countries as the light of the moon, that wanders in the sky,
39. Karmaraja, as the leader of the Sangha, paying a large sum of money to the Suratrana (Sultin), took all men, under his (Sultan's) honourable protection, on. 3 pilgrimage to Satrunjaya, especially the Sådhus, for whom it was made more convenient; he also installed idols of Arhants to last for ever. Thus how much can we say of Karmaråja.
40. He, whose mind was pare, caused to be made repairs in (the temple of) Pundarika on the mountain where there is everything good; and thus freed himself (soul) from the worldly miseries. In this way one who installs Tirthanatha with best ceremonies derives the merits of installing all the gods on the face of the three worlds.
41. Karmaraja, who was of sharp intellect, was like the moon for (his) calmness, the sun for (his) bright glory, a jewel in the house for making his family famous, a crown-jewel among faithful persons for (his) faith in religion and a serpent-jewel for destroying the poison of vanity; (thus) baving possessed different qualities, he was like many persons in one.
42. O Karmarája! May you be glorious! you, who are a son and a good son of Told, who are bright for your politeness, who are like a rdjahamsa (swan) in the lotus-like beautiful womb of Lilu, who know how to honor and bestow gifts on the best Munis, and who are surrounded by good elders and brothers.
43. For what Karmas was this fortunate Sri Karmaraja created! He who has seen this meritorious person must have acquired good Karmas.
