	OurKarnataka.Com : The Literary work from 1150 A.D to 1400 A.D : Janna, Thirthankaras
		The "Harivamsha" of Jinasena I (738 A.D) in Sanskrit was the source for Karnaparya and other writers on the same theme.
		There were other episodes of varying degrees of beauty and it is a pity that the work was left unfinished.
		The Harivamsha of Bhandhuvarma does not seem to be remarkable in any way but the poet has a happy style and a plenteous vocabulary.

		The poem is made up of almost 100,000 couplets--its length thus being about seven times that of the Iliad and the Odyssey combined--divided into 18 parvans, or sections, to which has been added a supplement entitled Harivamsha ("Genealogy of the God Hari," i.e., Krishna-Vishnu).
		The several centuries during which the epic took shape were a period of transition from the religion of Vedic sacrifice to the sectarian, internalized worship of later Hinduism, and different sections of the poem express varying and sometimes contradictory beliefs.
		Some sections, such as the Narayaniya (a part of Book XIII), the Bhagavadgita (Book VI), the Anugita (Book XIV), and the later supplement, the Harivamsha, are important sources of early Vaisnavite thought.

		Literary texts like the Mahabharata, Harivamsha and Purana contain traditions about the foundation of Dwaraka, its planning and glory.
		Before the legendary city of Dwaraka was discovered some scholars were of the view that the Mahabharata being only a myth it would be futile to look for the remains of Dwaraka and that too in the sea.
		Dwaraka is mentioned as Golden City in Mahabharata, Skanda Purana, Vishnu Purana and Harivamsha.

		According to theogonies of the late epic period, most notably the Harivamsha, Durga in her alternate form as Kali (i.e., Darkness or Sleep) was once born as the cross-uterine sister of Vishnu's dark avatar, Krishna.
		Harivamsha, refers to Durga as Vishnu's younger sister, so it is perfectly understandable that they should share the discuss and conch in South Indian iconography.
		But far less certain is the underlying connotation of these attributes, particularly when held by Durga.

		Le Harivamsha reprend le mythe védique de Samjnâ en le transformant et en l’amplifiant considérablement.
		Mais le récit complexe du Harivamsha, qui pose plusieurs problèmes de compréhension, échappe encore à une interprétation satisfaisante, même à l’aide de la comparaison avec les versions antérieures du mythe et avec les versions puraniques parallèles.
		Il reste à présumer de la cohérence et de la signifiance du texte à l’intérieur de son contexte, soit le début du Harivamsha, et à chercher le rôle qu’y joue le mythe de Samjnâ pour souder les volets importants du texte.

		Dwarka was built, according to Mahabharata and other texts on the ruins of Kusasthali the earlier capital founded by Kakudmin Raivata.
		It was noticed that the then sea level was lower than at present or else the sea must have receded before Kusasthali and Dwarka were built, which has been interpreted by the author of the Harivamsha as 'yielding of 12 Yojanas of land by the sea.
		The city of Dwarka has been described as a Jala Durg or Vari Durg - a 'fortress in water' and Udadhimadhyastham i.e.'standing in the sea'.

		There was yet another, which shows what a ravishing beauty she must have been.
		In Harivamsha (Harivamsha Parva XX.50-73) Bhishma tells Yudhishthira that after Shantanu’s death, during the period of mourning, he received a demand from the usurper of Panchala, Ugrayudha Paurava, to hand over Gandhakali in return for considerable wealth.
		This incident from Harivamsha helps explain Satyavati’s desperation for heirs, conscious of the greedy eyes of neighbours on the empty throne of Hastinapura.

		With all the existing limitations, he has done considerable work in the Bet Dwaraka region, where he found an entire submerged city, with rubble and masonry structures, several shell and pottery items and seals.
		The Mahabharata and Harivamsha describe Krishna’s capital Dwaraka and how it was submerged by the sea in great detail, a description that coincides in many ways with what the divers found.
		Unfortunately, the doubting Thomases of our historical world, a school of Indian historians who regard Indian literature as “myth”, do not want to acknowledge this interpretation, in case it gives credence to the story of Krishna, whose capital was submerged by the sea.

		Elle est née, dit-on, du corps de Vishnou et demeure toujours au service du dieu suprême (Harivamsha 48,8-10).
		En tant que roi, il doit en tout temps rester éveillé; et pourtant il utilise le sommeil comme l'un de ses modes privilégiés d'intervention dans le monde.
		Je fais donc l'hypothèse que le Harivamsha livre à propos de Nidrâ et de ses rapports avec Vishnou et Krishna un discours cohérent qui mérite d'être étudié en lui-même. Cette communication voudrait poser les bases d'une telle étude.

		Harivamsha says, Vishnu took this incarnation in Kikat-desha to confuse the lowly people doing yadnyas by vedic mantras.
		Bhagwat says, after the start of Kali, to deceive those who hate the devas, a 'jin suta' by name of Buddha will take incarnation in Kikat desha.

		Thus, Medhatithi and Kullukabhatta, two of the celebrated commentators on the Manusamhita were both wrong in taking the earthly years mentioned in the verses as "Daiva" or years of the gods which have never been mentioned in the Samhita in this context.
		The Mahabharata, in the Vanaparva (Chapter 188) and Shantiparva (Chapter 231, Verses 20—23), and the Harivamsha tell us the same thing as the great sage Manu does.
		From a detailed discussion of all these sources the Masters have shown us that the cycles of human consciousness on earth move on in the following order: Satya, Treta, Dwapara, Kali (the descending arc) ; Kali, Dwapara, Treta, Satya (the ascending arc).

		The root meaning of the word suggests that the weapon, when operated, would kill hundreds of people at a time.

		The oldest verse revealing its meaning simply says that Krishna is called Dâmodara because he was bound with a rope (dâman, Harivamsha 51, 36).
		The idea of binding a person as a sign of inauspiciousness and unbinding him to obtain good fortune appears elsewhere in the Harivamsha.
		These references reveal the general context in which the name appears and it is our assumption that they may be useful in an attempt to discover its oldest meaning.

		From this Shri Pai surmises that the people of Tulu country who were mostly fishermen and whose chief business and activity were on water, may have been called the Tuluvas.
		Quoting from "Harivamsha a Sanskrit work belonging to the second century A.D.Shri Govinda Pai further states that a fishing community known by the name "Mudgara" were living in Tulu Nadu, then ruled by king Harita and the name Mudgara is the Sanskritised form of today's "Mogera" or Mogaveera.
