The second issued by Rashtrakūta Govinda III in Saka 717; the donee an āchārya belonging to the Kashthachārya tradition.
The third issued by Mayuravarmrn of the Kadamba dynasty of Vanavāsi, in the Vijaya samvatsara falling after Saka 1200 ; homage to Jain goddess Ambikā and grant of a village Udumbaraja (Umbraj, north Satara) to Guņadeva, the pupil of Śrīpala.
These grants throw light on the Jain establishments of the two Satara districts,

D. C. SIRCAR.--Two Sailodbhava Grants from 1951-52 Delhi, 1954).
P. 38. Grant of Dharmarāja Manabhita of the Sailodbhava family of Kongoda in modern Orissa ; he seems to have flourished about the close of the 7th century and the beginning of the 8th (circa 695-730 A. c.). The donee was a Jaina (?).
P. 40. Monk called eka-sața (possibly one who has taken a vow to wear only one piece of cloth ; Cf. Eka-Chivara) Prabuddhachandra who was the disciple of the arhadāchārya (the most venerable teacher) Nāsichandra. The grant seems to have been actually made in favour of a deity or religious establishment in the residence of Prabuddhachandra. This is suggested by the expression bali-satira Charu-pravarthanaya.

The inscription edited by C. R. Krishnamacharlu. (The Kannada Inscription of Kopbal, Hyderabad Ar. Series, No. 12, Cal., 1935).
It is a Kannada record and pertains to the Jain faith. Chabra corrects a few mistakes in the translation of the last two lines in Sanskrit ; Indra in Sarvvanandindra is not to be equated with Bhatārar in Sarvvanandi-Bhațārar that occurs in the Kannada portion. The word 'indra' refers to Indra, the god of rains.
