Tejaḥpāla (तेजःपाल) refers to a minister of King Vāghela Vīradhavala, as is mentioned in the Vividhatīrthakalpa by Jinaprabhasūri (13th century A.D.): an ancient text devoted to various Jaina holy places (tīrthas).—Accordingly, “This minister built the city of Tejalapura, built a temple called Āsarāyavihāra, and built a pond called Kumarasara. [...] He summoned the community to Ujjayaṃta. [...] He built a temple dedicated to Nemi”.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!).
