His time, then, is clearly fixed at ca. 800, and he must have been a feudatory of Dharmapāla (ca. 770–810) or Devapāla (ca. 810–850). There is no evidence to connect him with the Varmans who ruled Eastern Bengal from the middle of the eleventh century. See S. Dvivedin \[1892\] 16–17; P. K. Gode \[1934/35\]; S. C.
