EPIGRAPHIA INDICA
BARDULA PLATES OF MAHASIVAGUPTA : YEAR 9
(1 Plate)
P. B. DESAI, OOTACAMUND
These copper plates were found buried underground some years back at Bārdūlā, a village
in the Sarangarh State, Central Provinces. They were traced and sent for examination to the
Government Epigraphist for India by Pandit L. P. Pandeya, Secretary, Mahakosala Historical
Society, Raigarh. As a member of the office of the Government Epigraphist for India, I had an
opportunity of studying them critically. I am grateful to Mr. Pandeya for his king permission
to edit them here.
_______________________________________________
[1] The temple is called pañchāyatana, because, the main structure was surrounded by four small shrines
dedicated to Durgā, Gaṇapati, Sarasvatī, etc. ; of. above, Vol. XXII, p. 130. For another such temple of a
slightly earlier period see the Rewah stone inscription of Vapullaka, Haihayas of Tripurī, etc., p. 131.
[2] Lit, celestial.
[3] This verse is rather obscure. Perhaps the temple was surrounded by water on all sides and therefore
resembled the city of Dvārakā.
[4] According to the Mahābhārata and the Purāṇas, Muru or Mura was killed not Śiva, but by Kṛishṇa.
[5] i.e., at the time of a solar eclipse.
[6]As the author speaks in this verse of his knowledge of the Buddhist āgamas, the three ratnas may be the
Buddha, Dharma and Saṅgha.
