MEDIEVAL JAINISM
Mahamandaleśvara Śrīpati Rāja, and the son Rajayyadeva Mahā-arasu. The solicitude which the Vijayanagara officials felt for Jainism even in the last quarter of the sixteenth century A.D. is seen in the inscription relating to that high official. When Cinnavara Govinda Scțți, the son of Gutti Haradare Setți, petitioned in A.D. 1579 to Vallabharājadeva that the manya lands of the god of Heggara basadi should be maintained, "in order to comply with his petition", Vallabharāja granted specific lands in Heggare for the god Jina of that locality in the Būdihālsīme.1
