RENOVATION OF TRIPURANTAKA |
|
| Lunapasaka
is the Sanskritised form of Lunashi. Looking to the fervour with which Lunashi gave
munificent grants to Shiva temples, I am inclined to find in him the original of the
'Lunashi' whose image is carved on a stone on the plinth of the Fifth Temple as
worshipping Somanatha with flowers. Bhimadeva added a Meghanada Mandapa or the Someshvara Mandapa to the Fifth Temple. Between 1219 and 1223 Vedagarbharashi appears to have come to Saurashtra and taken charge of the shrines.3 The fortunes of Gujarat declined. Internal dissensions and incessant pressure from the Slave Sultans of Delhi made it weaker with every generation. 3 E I. II, PP. 439-440. |
