[Footnote 411: Amitâbha, Amoghasiddhi, Ratnasambhava, Akshobhya,
Vairocana, sometimes called Dhyânî Buddhas, but it does not seem that
this name was in common use in Java or elsewhere. The Kamahâyânikan
calls them the Five Tathâgatas.]
[Footnote 412: So in the Kunjarakarna, for which see below. The
Kamahâyânikan teaches an elaborate system of Buddha emanations but for
purposes of worship it is not quite clear which should be adored as
the highest.]
[Footnote 413: Fergusson, _History of Indian and Eastern
Architecture_, ed. 1910, vol. II. p. 439.]
[Footnote 414: See _Archaeologisch Onderzoek op Java en Madura_, I.
"Tjandi Djago," 1904; II. "Tj. Singasari en Panataran," 1909.]
[Footnote 415: See Knebel in _Tijds. voor Indische T., L. en
Volkenkunde_, 41, 1909, p. 27.]
[Footnote 416: See passages quoted in _Archaeol. Onderzoek_, I. pp.
96-97.]
[Footnote 417: Hayagrîva however may be regarded as a Brahmanic god
adopted by the Buddhists.]
[Footnote 418: See for reasons and references _Archaeol. Onderzoek_,
II. pp. 36-40. The principal members of the king's household probably
committed suicide during the funeral ceremonies.]
[Footnote 419: Kern in _Tijds. voor T., L. en Volkenkunde_, Deel LII.
1910, p. 107. Similarly in Burma Alompra was popularly regarded as a
Bodhisattva.]
[Footnote 420: Sanskrit Kavi, a poet. See for Javanese literature Van
der Tuuk in _J.R.A.S._ XIII. 1881, p. 42, and Hinloopen Labberton,
_ib_. 1913, p. 1. Also the article "Litteratuur" in the _Encyc. van
Nederlandsch-Indië_, and many notices in the writings of Kern and
Veth.]
[Footnote 421: Edited by Gunning, 1903.]
[Footnote 422: A fragment of it is printed in _Notulen. Batav. Gen_.
LII. 1914, 108.]
[Footnote 423: Episodes of the Indian epics have also been used as the
subjects of Javanese dramas. See Juynboll, _Indonesische en
achterindische tooneelvoorstellingen uit het Râmâyana_, and Hinloopen
Labberton, _Pepakem Sapanti Sakoentala_, 1912.]
[Footnote 424: Juynboll, _Drie Boeken van het Oudjavaansche
Mahâbhârata_, p. 28.]
[Footnote 425: _Archaeol. Onderzoek_, I. p. 98. This statement is
abundantly confirmed by Krom's index of the proper names in the
Nâgarakrĕtâgama in _Tijdschrift_, LVI. 1914, pp. 495 ff.]

Akademie van Wetenschappen te Amsterdam. Afd. Lett. N.R._ III. 3.
1901.]
[Footnote 428: But this probably represents nizbâṇa and is not a
Pali form. Cf. Bajra, Bâyu for Vajra, Vâyu.]
[Footnote 429: Adyâbhishiktâyushmanta, p. 30. Prâptam buddhatvam
