66 P.V. Sharma (AVI 162) asserts that Yaśodharman was called Vikramāditya after his defeat of the Hūṇas. 67 See R.C. Majumdar c.s. (1948): 154. The capital was shifted to Ujjayinī by king Dravyavardhana, who was probably Yaśodharman’s successor and the patron of Varāhamihira (see A.M. Shastri, 1996: I, 15–16). 68 A.s.Sū.7.231. 69 Mentioned at A.s.Sū.35.4 and U.39.36. Avantisoma is a synonym of kāñjika according to Indu (ad A.S.U.39.36); the same synonym is found in Hemacandra’s Abhidhānacintāmaṇi (3.79), Halāyudha’s Abhidhānaratnamālā (2.163), the Amarakoṣa (vaiśyavarga 39), Dhanvantariyanighaṇṭu (6.249), and Rājanighaṇṭu (15.294). 70 Ca.Ci.30.317. 71 Su.Sū.45.21. 72 Ed. Jinavijaya Muni (1933): 121–122: prakāśa 5 (prakīrṇaprabandha), vaidyavāgbhaṭaprabandha; English translation by C.H. Tawney (1899): 198–200. 73 A.B. Keith (1973): 293; Winternitz III, 50, 352, 640. M. Krishnamachariar ((1989: 207) calls it a work of great historical importance. S.N. Dasgupta and S.K. De (1947: 428) judged that some parts are not without historical interest. 74 P. Cordier (1901c): 183–184; (1901d): 148. 75 P. Cordier (1896): 3. 76 J. Jolly (1900a): 262. 77 C. Vogel (1965): 8. 78 A.s.Śā.12.15. Cf. A.h.Śā.6.50. This verse was already noticed by P. Cordier (1901d: 166). 79 A.s.Ka.8.33 = A.h.Ka.6.29cd–30. 80 Ca.Sū.27.209–212. 81 Vṛddhatrayī 292–293. 82 R. Śāstrī (1977): 643–644 and 663–673. 83 R. Śāstrī (1977): 662–663. 84 This tradition is accepted by R. Śāstrī (1977: 647). K.R. Srikantha Murthy (1995: XII) is in favour of seeing Jejjaṭa as a disciple of Vāgbhaṭa, though dismissing the same fact with regard to Indu. 85 See: Tiṣaṭa. Some Indian scholars accepting the tradition are, for example: D.Ch. Bhattacharyya (1947a: 125) and R.Śāstrī (1977: 647). 86 See ABI 217; P.K. Gode’s Intr. to ed. c of the Hṛdaya, 2. The one who described Vāgbhaṭa, author of Saṃgraha, Hṛdaya and Rasaratnasamuccaya, as an incarnation of Dhanvantari, as it were (iva), was Kṛṣṇarāvaśarman in his bhūmikā to the Ānandāśrama edition (1905) of the Rasaratnasamuccaya, where he refers to the position of Vāgbhaṭa in the Hārītasamhita. 87 See B.P. Shastri (1929): 181. 88 *Ayurveda Vijnanam I, 9, referred to by J. Jolly (1900a: 260). 89 This legend was known to Sitaram Ranganath Joshi, according to B. Rama Rao (1992a: 220). 90 See Hārītasamhita, pāriśiṣṭadhyāya 8. 91 See P.K. Gode’s Intr. to ed. c (6th ed.) of the Hṛdaya, 2. 92 S.N. Dasgupta and S.K. De (1947): 559. A.B. Keith (1973): 395. M. Krishnamachariar (1989): 762–763. K. Krishnamoorthy (1975): 47. V.M. Kulkarni (1975): 50. L. Renou in L. Renou and J. Filliozat (1953): 109. Winternitz III, 22 and 642. P. Cordier (1901d: 148)
