â[to] . [[49]] According to the Kalpasûtra (S.B.E. vol. XXII, p. 291) Ârya-Rohana was the first pupil of Ârya Suhastin and founded the Uddeha gana. The latter split up into four śâkhâs and into six kulas. The name of its fourth śâkhâ, Pûrnapatrikâ, closely resembles--especially in its consonantal elements--that of the inscription, Petaputrikâ, and I do not hesitate in correcting the latter to Ponapatrikâ which would be the equivalent of Sansk. Paurnapatrikâ. Among the six kulas is the Parihâsaka, and considering the other agreements, I believe it probable that the mutilated name read as Puridha.ka is a misreading of Parihâka, We may emend the first two times and read as follows,--
