301 ff. and various notices in Hsuean Chuang and Watters. Also de la Vallee Poussin's article in E.R.E.] [Footnote 235: Hsuean Chuang informs us that when he was in Srughna he studied the Vibhasha of the Sautrantikas, but the precise significance of this term is not plain.] [Footnote 236: Fa-Hsien's _Travels_, chap. XVI.] [Footnote 237: This figure is probably deduced from some artificial calculation of possible heresies like the 62 wrong views enumerated in the Brahma-Jala sutra.] [Footnote 238: He must have lived in the fourth century as one of his works (Nanjio, 1243) was translated between 397 and 439.] [Footnote 239: Watters, _Yuean Chwang_, II. 221-224. Nanjio, 1237. The works of Gunamati also are said to show a deep knowledge of the Sankhya philosophy.] [Footnote 240: For the history of logic in India, see Vidyabhusana's interesting work _Mediaeval School of Indian Logic_, 1909. But I cannot accept all his dates.] [Footnote 241: Dinnaga's principal works are the Pramana-samuccaya and the Nyaya-pravesa. Hsuean Chuang calls him Ch'en-na. See Watters, II. 209. See Stcherbatskoi in _Museon_, 1904, pp. 129-171 for Dinnaga's influence on the development of the Naiyayika and Vaiseshika schools.] [Footnote 242: His personal name is said to have been P'u-ti-to-lo and his surname Ch'a-ti-li. The latter is probably a corruption of Kshatriya. Hsiang-Chih possibly represents a name beginning with Gandha, but I can neither find nor suggest any identification.] [Footnote 243: See _B.E.F.E.O._ 1903, pp. 379 ff.] [Footnote 244: His evil deeds are several times mentioned by Hsuean Chuang. It required a miracle to restore the Bo tree.] [Footnote 245: See Ettinghausen, _Harshavardhana_, Appendix III.] [Footnote 246: The appearance of Gauri as a _dea ex machina_ at the end hardly shows that Harsha's Buddhism had a Saktist tinge but it does show that Buddhists of that period turned naturally to Sivaite mythology.] [Footnote 247: Harshacarita, chap. VII. The parrots were expounding Vasubandhu's Abhidharma-kosa. Bana frequently describes troops of holy men apparently living in harmony but including followers of most diverse sects. See Kadambari, 193 and 394: Harshacar. 67.] [Footnote 248: It is curious that Bana (Harshacarita, VII.) says of this prince that from childhood he resolved never to worship anyone but Siva.] [Footnote 249: The Rashtra-pala-paripriccha (Ed. Finot, pp. ix-xi, 28-33) inveighs a
