Articles discussing Kalakacarya

  1. Kālakācārya a Chief of the Kīlaka People

    Dasharatha Sharma · The Indian Historical Quarterly, 1957

    “The analogy of the above classical examples should, we think, make us consider the probability of Kalakacarya being the religious and secular head of a non-Aryan people called the Kalakas; and this probability becomes something like certainty, when we take into account the evidence supplied by the Markandeya Purana and the Bribatsambita of Varahamihira.”
  2. An Analysis of the Contents of the Kalakacarya Kathanaka

    Bratindra Nath Mukherjee · Jain Journal A Quarterly on Jainology, 1988

    “The Kalakacarya-Kathanaka is a well-known cycle of legends found in Jaina scriptures and texts.”
  3. Jainism in Central India

    Umakant Premanand Shah · Jain Journal A Quarterly on Jainology, 1976

    “Since the Pafica-kalpa-bhasya credits Kalakacarya with the authorship of Mala-Prathama-nuyoga and other works and since these early texts also refer to Kalaka’s meeting with the Satavahana king it is not unlikely that he was a historical figure in the first century B.C.”
  4. A Note on the Exhibition of Jain Art in Calcutta

    Paresh Chandra Dasgupta · Jain Journal A Quarterly on Jainology, 1975

  5. Vikrama Era and Jainism

    Laxmi Chandra Jain, Prabha Jain · Jinamanjari, 2001
