as in a mixed and eclectic mode of thought.  Even in European books of the first rank inconsistencies are not unknown and they need not cause surprise in works which were not written down but committed to memory.  A poet composing a long religious poem in this way and feeling, as many Hindus feel, both that God is everything and also that he is a very present personal help, may very well express himself differently in different parts.  On the other hand the editors of such poems are undoubtedly tempted to insert in them later popular doctrines.]

[Footnote 493:  The name appears not to be in common use now, but the Pasupata school is reviewed in the Sarva-darsana-sangraha (c. 1330).]

[Footnote 494:  Sivabhagavata, see his comment on Panini, V. 3. 99 and V. 2. 76.  The name is remarkable and suggests that the Sivaites may have imitated the Bhagavatas.]

[Footnote 495:  I. xxiii. 209.  The Bibliotheca Ind. edition reads Nakuli.  Aufrecht (Bodl.  MSS.) has Lakuli.  The same story is found in Linga P. chap.  XXIV.  Lakuli is said to have had four pupils who founded four branches.  Lakulin does not play an important part in modern Sivaism but is mentioned in inscriptions from the tenth till the thirteenth centuries.  The Sarva-darsana-sangraha describes the Nakulisa-Pasupata system and quotes Nakulisa who is clearly the same as Lakulin.  The figures on Kushan coins representing Siva as holding a club may be meant for Lakulin but also may be influenced by Greek figures of Herakles.  See for Lakulin Fleet in J.R.A.S. 1907, pp. 419 ff. and Bhandarkar Vaishnavism and Saivism, pp. 115 ff.  The coins of Wema Kadphises bear the title Mahisvara, apparently meaning worshipper of the Great Lord.  Temples in south India seem to have been named after Kayarohana in the seventh century A.D.  See Gopinatha Rao, Hindu Iconography, II. p. 19.]

[Footnote 497:  Mahabhar.  XII. 13702 ff.  It is recited by Daksha when he recognizes the might of Siva after the unfortunate incident of his sacrifice.]

[Footnote 498:  Santi-parvan, section cclxxxv especially line 10, 470 ff.]

[Footnote 499:  See Sarva-darsana-sangraha, chap.  VI. and the comments of Ramanuja and Sankara on Vedanta Sutras, II. 2. 36.]

[Footnote 500:  E.g. Sankara-dig-vijaya.  The first notice of these sects appears to be an inscription at Igatpuri in the Nasik district of about 620 A.D. recording a grant for the worship of Kapalesvara and the maintenance of Mahavratins (= Kapalikas) in his temple.  But doubtless the sects are much older.]

[Footnote 501:  The principal are, the Pasupatas, the Saivasiddhantam of southern India and the Sivaism of Kashmir.]

[Footnote 502:  The Sarva-darsana-sangraha, chap.  VII. gives a summary of it.]
