No. 33.] JUBBULPORE STONE INSC. OF VIMALASIVA: [KALACHURI] YEAR 926. 311
ever, be noted in this connection that the Royal Asiatic Society of Bengal plates of Govindachandra' mention the Saiva Acharya Rudrasiva, not Purushasiva, as the Rājaguru of Yasahkarma. Perhaps Yasahkarna had two Rajagurus in succession. The name of Vimalaśiva, the guru of Jayasinha, occurs in his Jubbulpore Kotwili plates also.
The present prasasti was composed by the poet Sasidbars, who was a Bräbmana of the Maunya' götra. He composed also the Bhērā-Ghät inscription of Albanadëvi, while his elder brother Pșithvidhara was the author of the Tēwar inscription of Gayakarna. The present record was incised on the stone by Nāmadēva, the son of Mahidbara. His father was the engraver of the aforementioned stone inscriptions of Gayakarna and Alhanadēvi.
As for the localities mentioned in the present record, Tēkabhara may be identical with Tikhārī, 5 miles south by west of Jubbulpore. The vishaya (district) of Navapattalāt in which it was situated may bave comprised the territory round the modern Nayakhērā which lies about 8 miles west of Tikhāri. Samudrapāta is probably Samand Pipäriä, 4 miles south of Jubbulpore. There are several villages named Kunda or Kundan near Jubbulpore, one of which may represent the ancient Kandaravāda. No place exactly corresponding to Vadōha can, however, be traced in the Jubbulpore District.

This is also the spelling of the name in the Bhēra-Ghat stone inscription of Alhanadēvt, but the Götraprawaranibandhakadamba apells it as Mauna.
There is a larger village named Nayagaon in the former Narsinghpur (now Hoshangabad) District, but it is too far from Jubbulpore, being situated about 45 miles south by west of it. Besides, no places corresponding to Tēkabhara, Samudrapataka, etc., can be traced in the vicinity of it.
