The Sailendra dynasty is said to hark back indirectly to India by being cousins to the Chandella dynasty, which left numerous monuments in India between the 7th and 8th centuries (most notably, the Khajuraho temples).

At the same time, they opened their minds to Buddhist doctrines, effecting a sort of unofficial conversion, which they concretized in the form of a gift of land, money or even pensions to the Buddhist monks who, in return, affected a tolerant and protecting attitude towards the royalty.

The Sailendra dynasty is said to hark back indirectly to India by being cousins to the Chandella dynasty, which left numerous monuments in India between the 7th and 8th centuries (most notably, the Khajuraho temples).

The initiative of the first period of Borobudur appeared to be contemporary of the reign of Visnu, a Sailendra king during 780 A.D. The second and third stage seemed to be carried out during Indra's reign, Visnu's successor.
The fourth stage of no great importance by Samaratunga marked the decline of the Sailendra dynasty and the fifth stage around 833 A.D. by the Sanjayas, initially under the Sailendra's reign but later freed of its control.
Built at the beginnings of Buddhism influence in Java, the Sailendra ruler, a Buddhist monarch probably meant Borobudur to serve as a means to spread and strengthen the faith of Buddhism in his empire.

 Tara and Nyai Lara Kidul: images of the divine feminine in Java   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Because the Kalasan inscription is evidently also the earliest dated edict proclaimed by a Sailendra ruler, its interpretation has occupied various scholars in connection with their attempts to reconstruct the role of the Sailendras in the dynastic history of Central Java.
The Sailendras are connected with the building of many Buddhist shrines - of which Borobudur is the best known - in Central Java during the late-eighth and the first half of the ninth centuries.
Thus the origin of the Sailendras is still a great mystery, even after the countless pages devoted to this subject by scholars, in which the interpretation of the Kalasan inscription, or more accurately its second strophe, has played a crucial role.

 History of Central Java, Part Two
However, there are several instances in which the Sailendra inscriptions make mention of how the family’s Buddhist kings had formerly entertained foreign religious leaders, which suggests that of the two ruling families the Sailendra was more involved in the maritime trade.
The Sailendra vanish from the inscriptions of central Java by the middle of the ninth century CE to be replaced by the names of a succession of Hindu kings.
Although the attainment of merit was certainly one of the Sailendra king’s intentions, Balaputra also undoubtedly desired to ensure that his kingdom would continue to have access to the very latest knowledge concerning geography, mathematics and other sciences.

 The Jakarta Post - The Journal of Indonesia Today
Head of Malang's Regional Environment Impact Control Board (Bapeldada), Sailendra, said the change in Malang's air quality was the combination of land use planning decisions by the local administration, industrial growth, automotive gas emissions and forest destruction around Malang following widespread illegal logging.
It was not caused by automotive and industrial gases, which produced lead and carbon dioxide, he said, but rather from conflagration-prone forests and mountains around Malang like those in Batu, Pasuruan, Probolinggo, and the recent volcanic eruption at Mount Semeru.
Sailendra said despite the intensified industrialization, all companies operating in the area possessed environmental licenses and the likelihood of their polluting the city's outskirts was slim.
