Study question (generated from the text)

In the Jina temple on the Rāmagiri hill in Veṅgi, the chief place of the Trikaliṅga country; his guru was Śrīnandi Ācārya.

Detailed answer

The editor says Ugrāditya's brief self-introduction in chapter 25 names Śrīnandi, whose feet a king called Śrī Viṣṇurāja Parameśvara worshipped. He explains Trikaliṅga as North Kaliṅga or Utkala (from the Gaṅgā to Kaṭaka), Middle Kaliṅga (from Kaṭaka to Mahendragiri) and South Kaliṅga (from Mahendragiri to the Godāvarī), and suggests the Rāmagiri may be the one where, according to the Padmapurāṇa, Rāmacandra had temples built.
