3 Here, I may draw attention to the fact that in the Abhidhanachintamani itself, which we have placed in the last years of Jayasimha's reign, Kumarapala is mentioned by name and described as Chalukya, Rajarshi, Paramarhata, Mṛta - sva - mokta (one who has given up the confiscation of the wealth of the dead), Dharmātmā and Marivyasanavāraka (preventor of the vice of killing) (A. C. V. 3 v. 376 377). This would indicate that this work also belongs to the latter part of Kumāra. pala's reign. But on other grounds, which Dr. Bühler has discussed, it will be better to regard this verse as an addition in a revised edition of the A. C. There is ample proof in the works of Hemachandra, that he himself later on revised some of his works and added new material to them in course of revision. The process of perfecting the works must have continued to the very end of his life.
