As regards the two Patna statues inscription on one of them reads Bhange Achachha Nivika which, may be rendered into Sanskrit as Bhagavān Akshaya Nivika, i. e. of inexhaustible wealth; the inscription on the other as Savaṭa-Nandi i.e. in Sanskrit Sarvatra *Nandi*. Both of these are apparently good Yaksha names. Dr. Vogel has mentioned (in his *Catalogue of the Mathura Museum*) that the statue obtained in the Baroda village of Mathura district was also being worshipped under the name of *Jakhaiyā*.
