Misc notes

“Jinadāsa was evidently a learned Buddhist pilgrim from a mountainous country called Parvata, which is probably the same place as Hwen Thsang’s Po-fa-to near Mūlasthānapura or Multan. Parable is mentioned by Pāṇini as a country in the Punjab under the group of Takshaśilādi.” (Bar 1934, II, pp. 73).
