Notes

Manjushri Yashas ruled over a kingdom of 300,510 followers of the Mlechha (Greeks) and Yavana (Yawehists). Some of the Mlechha were of the "western" Zarathustran) religion and worshiped the sun.

[edit] Sources

  1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mlechha - Chanakya refers to mleccha (Macedonian Greek) forces once attacked Chandragupta. An old sanskrit verse found in the ancient work on astrology identifies Mlecchas with Yavanas or Greeks. It says "Mleccha hi yavanstesthu samyak shastramidam sthitam." By this verse means that mleccha, that is Yavana, were expert in the science of astronomy.
