Vidyānandasvāmin x - Collected Information

Uniform Name	Vidyānandasvāmin x (see Bronkhorst 2007: 272, n. 1) Bronkhorst cites Guérinot 1908, no. 667, p. 238: Éloge de Vidyānandasvāmin ou Vādi-Vidyānanda, chef des munis de Gerasoppe, et auteur du Buddheśa-bhavana-vyākhyāna (en canara). Il fréquenta la cour de plusieurs rois, entre autres celle du Cāṅgalva Nañjadeva, du Sāluva Kṛṣṇadeva, de Bhairava ... Il soutint avec succès plusieurs controverses religieuses et it, en particulier, abjurer la foi franque (Periṅgiya-mata = chrétienne?) à un vice-roi de Srīraṅganagara (Seringapatam). Aussi son éloquence est-elle comparée à celle d’Akalaṅka et de Bāṇa."
