Simhanandi (575-475 BCE).—According to later inscriptions of the Ganga dynasty, Ganga King Padmanabha sent his sons, Didiga and Madhava, towards the south during the time of aggression from a neighbouring ruler of Ujjain (Probably Saka kings of Ujjain). Didiga and Madhava arrived at Perur and met a Jaina Acharya Simhanandi who supported them in establishing the kingdom of the Ganga Dynasty in Kuvalalapura (Kolar). Later inscriptions like the Kulagana plates of Sivamara I and the Kudlur plates of Marasimha also refer to the Jaina Acharya Simhanandi.

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
