See Didhiṣūpati. - [Previous: v1.c3.s7.38](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s7.38) - [Next: v1.c3.s7.40](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s7.40) - [Up: v1.c3.s7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s7.39](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s7.39) · Pramāṇa
