戒日王 [jie ri wang]—(Śīlāditya)—[Personal Name] Śīlāditya, King of Central India's 羯若鞠闍國 [jie ruo ju du guo] (Kanyākubja), also known as 曲女城 [qu nu cheng] (Kanyākubja). He originally belonged to the 吠奢種 [fei she zhong] (Vaishya caste). His personal name was 曷利沙伐彈那 [he li sha fa dan na] (Harshavardhana), which translates to "Joy-increase."
When his elder brother, the king, was killed by the king of a neighboring country, he succeeded his brother as king and was titled Śīlāditya. The Tang Dynasty translation of his name is Jiè rì (戒日 [jie ri]). Six years after ascending the throne, he avenged his brother and subjugated the 五印度 [wu yin du] (Five Indias). He commanded an elephant army of 60,000 and a cavalry of 60,000. For nearly thirty years, there was no warfare, and both politics and religion enjoyed peace.
He established viharas (monasteries) in cities and towns throughout the Five Indias, providing food, drink, and medicine, distributing them to the poor and needy. He also erected sangharamas (monasteries/temples) at sacred sites. Furthermore, every five years, he held a 無遮大會 [wu zhe da hui] (Quinquennial Grand Assembly), emptying his treasury to give away everything. Annually, he gathered bhikshus (Buddhist monks) from various countries and for twenty-one days (three times seven days), provided them with the four requisites. He adorned the Dharma seats and judged their merits and demerits, praising the good and criticizing the bad. 唐玄奘 [tang xuan zang] (Tang Xuanzang) traveled to India during this period and encountered this grand event when the king's great assembly was held in Kanyākubja. (See 西域記 [xi yu ji] (Records of the Western Regions), Book 5).
The king is also credited with the authorship of 八大靈塔梵讚 [ba da ling ta fan zan] (Hymns of Praise to the Eight Great Stupas), a one-volume work translated by Dharma Master Faxian of the Song Dynasty.
