  • Architectural Science in Jain Poetry: the Descriptions of Kumarapala's
    International Journal of Jaina Studies (Online) Vol. 13, No. 4 (2017) 1-30 ARCHITECTURAL SCIENCE IN JAIN POETRY THE DESCRIPTIONS OF KUMARAPALA’S TEMPLES Basile Leclère 1. Introduction In the fourth act of the Moharājaparājaya or Defeat of King Delusion, a play about the conversion to Jainism of the Caulukya king Kumārapāla (r. 1143-1173) written by the Jain layman Yaśaḥpāla under the reign of Kumārapāla’s successor Ajayapāla (r. 1173-1176), there is a scene wherein several allegorical characters, Prince Gambling, his wife Falsehood and his friends Venison and Excellent-Wine are suddenly informed by a royal proclamation that a Jain festival is about to take place. Understanding that their existence is threatened by the king’s commitment to the ethics of Jainism, all these vices look in panic for a place in the capital city of Aṇahillapura (modern Patan) to take refuge in. Falsehood then points at a great temple where she thinks they could revel, but she learns from her husband that it is a Jain sanctuary totally unfit for welcoming them, as well as the many other charming temples that Falsehood notices in the vicinity. Prince Gambling and Excellent-Wine then explain that all these temples have been built by Kumārapāla under the influence of his spiritual teacher, the Jain monk Hemacandra.1 As a matter of fact, Kumārapāla did launch an ambitious architectural project after converting to Jainism and had Jain temples built all over the Caulukya empire, a feat celebrated by another allegorical character, Right-Judgement, in the fifth act of the Defeat of King Delusion: there he expresses his joy of seeing the earth looking like a woman thrilled with joy, with all these temples to Dispassionate Jinas erected at a high level as the hair of a body.2 Other Jain writers from the times of Kumārapāla similarly praised the king’s decision to manifest the social and political rise of Jainism by filling the landscape with so many temples.
