The Satruñjaya Máhátmya has a prophetic account of one Síláditya who will be a propagator of religion in Vikrama Samvat 477 (A.D. 420). This Máhátmya is comparatively modern and is not worthy of much trust. Vikrama Samvat 477 would be A.D. 420 when no Valabhi kingdom was established and no Síláditya can have flourished. If the date 477 has been rightly preserved, and it be taken in the Saka era it would correspond with Gupta 237 or A.D. 556, that is thirty to forty years before Síláditya's reign. Although no reliance can be placed on the date still his second name Dharmáditya gives support to his identification with the Síláditya of the Máhátmya. His grants like many of his predecessors style Síláditya a great devotee of Siva. Still that two of his three known grants were made to Buddhist monks shows that he tolerated and respected Buddhism. The writer of one of the grants is mentioned as the minister of peace and war Chandrabhatti; the Dútaka or causer of the gift in two of the Buddhist grants is Bhatta Ádityayasas apparently some military officer. The third grant, to a temple of Siva, has for its Dútaka the illustrious Kharagraha apparently the brother and successor of the king. Síláditya's reign probably began about A.D. 594 (G. 275). His latest grant is dated A.D. 609 (G. 290). [301] [Kharagraha, A.D. 610-615.] Síláditya was succeeded by his brother Kharagraha, of whom no record has been traced. Kharagraha seems to have been invested with sovereignty by his brother Síláditya who probably retired from the world. Kharagraha is mentioned as a great devotee of Siva. [Dharasena III. A.D. 615-620.] Kharagraha was succeeded by his son Dharasena III. of whom no record remains. [Dhruvasena II. (Báláditya) A.D. 620-640.] Dharasena III. was succeeded by his younger brother Dhruvasena II. also called Báláditya or the rising sun. A grant of his is dated A.D. 629 (G. 310). [302] As observed before, Dhruvasena is probably a Sanskritised form of the popular but meaningless Dhruvapatta which is probably the original of Hiuen Tsiang's T'u-lu-h'o-po-tu, as A.D. 629 the date of his grant is about eleven years before the time when (640) Hiuen Tsiang is calculated to have been in Málwa if not actually at Valabhi. If one of Dhruvasena's poetic attributes is not mere hyperbole, he made conquests and spread the power of Valabhi. On the other hand the Navsári grant of Jayabhata III. (A.D. 706-734) the Gurjjara king of Broach states that Dadda II. of Broach (A.D. 620-650) protected the king of Valabhi who had been defeated by the great Srí Harshadeva (A.D. 607-648) of Kanauj.
