c9.91

About Skandagupta we know nothing. But we can say that a son,—and that again in ancient India (if it were in modern times we may expect otherwise)—would not go against the religious inclinations of his father. Consequently even if Skandagupta was not a devout Buddhist, he did not lose anything if he acted according to the wish of Nālandā authorities and order another saṅghārāma to be built by the side of his father's.
