Views of Dr. S. Srikanta Sastry on Siribhuvalaya (ಸಿರಿಭೂವಲಯ)

1.    For the history of Kannada language and literature, it is one of the earliest works, however much it may upset our present notions of the development of Kannada language, unless it can be proved to be modern.

2.   For the history of Sanskrit, Prakrit, Tamil & Telegu literatures of the 9^th century, it is an eye opener.

3.   For the study of Jainism in particular and all other schools of Indian philosophy and religions, it provides new material which may revolutionise our present concepts of the development of Indian thought.

4.   For political history of India and Karnataka, it provides fresh material as it mentions Amoghavarsha and Ganga rulers of Mysore.

5.   For the history of Indian mathematics, it is an important document.  The recent studies in Viresena’s Dhavala Tika show that Indians even in 9^th century, if not centuries earlier, were conversant with the theory of place-values, laws of indices, the theory of logarithms, special methods to deal with fractions, theories of transformations, geometrical and mensuration formulae, infinite processes and theories of infinity anticipating canter and other western mathematicians, correct value of (pi), permutation and combination etc.  Kumudendu’s work seems to be far more advanced than even Virasena’s and therefore not easy of comprehension.

6.   For the study of Indian Positive Sciences, it is important showing how as early as the 9^th Century, if not earlier, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Ayurveda, Zoology, Veterinary Science, astronomy, etc. had developed in India.

7.   For the history of fine arts like architecture, sculpture, iconography, painting etc. the Bhuvalaya forms an inexhaustible source.

8.   Special attention should be drawn to the version of Bhagavad Gita and Mahabharata, which have been embedded in the general text in such a way that it is impossible to assert that they are interpolations by some moderns, who should have had extraordinary genius indeed to produce work involving mathematical combination of letters to fit in the general scheme of numerous other Kava’s.  There are not less than eight or ten versions of Gita according to Kumudendu in five languages.  Regarding Mahabharata in which the Bhandarkar Institute of Poona is working for the past 25 years and more to bring out a critical edition, the Bhuvalaya professes to give the original nucleus of the Mahabharata called Jayakhya Samhita.   Further it gives three versions of Rig Veda differing entirely from the accepted versions.  The Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata and Rig Veda as well as the Ramayana (which also is included in this Kavya by Kumudendu) are acknowledgly fundamental texts for the study of Indian culture.

9.   Besides these works of general interest, the Bhuvalaya professes to give the texts of important Jaina texts like Tattvarthadigama sutras of Uma Swati, Gandhahasti Mahabhasya, Devagamastotra etc, of Samanta Bhadra, Chudamani, Samayasara, Pravachana Sara etc of Kundakundacharya, the work of Pujyapada like Sarvartha Siddhi, Akalamka, Virasena, Jinasena etc of Digambara Scnhool, the Angas, and many works considered lost by Digambaras but claimed to have been preserved by the Swethambaras.  Technical works like Suryaprajnapti, Chandraprajnapti, Jambudwipa prajnapti, Trilokaprajnapti etc.

10.                The works is also important from the archeological point of view as it gives a list of 27 alphabets, including
Brahmi, Kharoshti, Yavanani (Greek), Saindhava (Indus Script), Gandhara, Bolidi etc. and languages like Tebati (Tibetan), Parasa (Persion) etc.
