The traditions of Śravaņa Beļgoļa show a relation evident between the name of this locality and the names of Bhadrabāhu and of Candragupta.
Analysis of the inscriptions of Śravana Belgoļa where there is a talk of Bhad. rabāhu and Candragupta. Critical study of the identifications of M. Lewis RICE, relatively to Bhadrabāhu and Candragupta. Examination of the historical information contained in the inscription No. I of Sravana Belgoļa.
Conclusions : 1. Bhadrabāhu of the inscriptions of Sravana Belgoļa is not the Śrutakevalin of this name, but Bhadrabāhu II (53 B.c.) ; 2. Candragupta is not the Emperor, but Guptigupta, still called Arhadbalin or Visakhācārya, disciple of Bhadrabāhu II, and who became pontiff in 31. B.C. ; 3. The emigration of Ujjain towards the south is undoubtedly a historical fact; but this emigration had not taken place under the direction of Bhadrabāhu II.
