[Footnote 270: As contained in the Śaṅkara-dig-vijaya ascribed to Mâdhava and the Śaṅkara-vijaya ascribed to Ânandagiri.] [Footnote 271: Târanâtha in his twenty-eighth and following chapters gives an account, unfortunately very confused, of the condition of Buddhism under the Pâla dynasty. See also B.K. Sarkar, _Folklore Element in Hindu Culture_, chap. XII, in which there are many interesting statements but not sufficient references.] [Footnote 272: See Vidyabhusana's _Mediæval School of Indian Logic_, p. 150, for an account of this monastery which was perhaps at the modern Pârthaghâta. I have found no account of what happened to Nalanda in this period but it seems to have disappeared as a seat of learning.] [Footnote 273: See Târanâtha, chap. XXVIII.] [Footnote 274: Chap. XXXVI. It is interesting to notice that even at this late period he speaks of Hinayanists in Bengal.] [Footnote 275: Often called Muhammad Bakhtyar but Bakhtyar seems to have been really his father's name.] [Footnote 276: Raverty, _Tabat-i-Nasiri_, p. 552. "It was discovered that the whole of that fortress and city was a college and in the Hindi tongue they call a college Bihar."] [Footnote 277: Many of them have been collected by Pandit Haraprasad Sastri in _Jour. As. Soc._ Bengal, 1895, pp. 55 ff. and in his _Discovery of living Buddhism in Bengal_, Calcutta, 1897.] [Footnote 278: Chap. XL _ad fin._ Is the Râmacandra whom he mentions the last Yadava King (about 1314)? Târanâtha speaks of his son.] [Footnote 279: Caitanya-caritamrita, chap. VII, transl. by Jadunath Sarkar, p. 85. This biography was written in 1582 by Kṛishṇadas. Caitanya died in 1533.] [Footnote 280: _Census of India_, 1901: vol. VI. Bengal, pp. 427-430.] [Footnote 281: _The Archæological Survey of Mayurabhanj_ (no date? 1911), vol. I. pp. cv-cclxiii. The part containing an account of Buddhism in Orissa is also printed separately with the title _Modern Buddhism_, 1911.] [Footnote 282: For Râmâi Pandit see Dinesh Chandra Sen, _Hist. Bengali Language and Lit._ pp. 30-37, and also B.K. Sarkar, _Folklore Element in Hindu Culture_, p. 192, and elsewhere. He appears to have been born at the end of the tenth century and though the Śûnya Purâṇa has been re-edited and interpolated parts of it are said to be in very old Bengali.] [Footnote 283: Nagendranâth Vasu quotes a couplet from the Mahâbhârata of the poet Saraladasa: "I pay my humble respects to the incarnation of Buddha who in the form of Buddha dwells in the Nîlâcala, _i.e._ Puri." The Imperial Gazetteer of India (s.v. Puri Town) states that in modern representations of Vishṇu's ten avatâras, the ninth, or Buddhâvatâra, is sometimes represented by Jagannâtha.] [Footnote 284: I give the dates or the authority of Narandra Nâth while thinking that they may be somewhat too early. The two authors named wrote the Śûnya Samhitâ and Nirguṇa Mâhâtmya respectively.] [Footnote 285: _l.c._ clxxvi ff., ccxix-ccxxiii, ccxxxi.]
