Narayanapala was the seventh emperor of the Pala Empire of the Eastern regions of the Indian subcontinent, mainly the Bengal and Bihar regions.

Reign

The Gaya temple inscription dated in his 7th regnal year, the Indian Museum (found in the erstwhile Patna district) stone inscription dated in his 9th regnal year, the Bhagalpur copper-plate grant dated in his 17th regnal year, Bihar votive image inscription dated in his 54th regnal year and the Badal pillar inscription of his minister Bhatta Guravamishra provide information about his reign.[3]

Based on the different interpretations of the various epigraphs and historical records, the different historians estimate Narayanapala's reign as follows:[4]

AM Chowdhury (1967) 866–920 CE
BP Sinha (1977) 865–920 CE

The Badal Pillar Inscription of Narayanapala.

He was the son of Vigrahapala I by his wife, the Kalachuri princess Lajjadevi.[5][6] He was later succeeded by his son Rajyapala.[7]

Religion and Religious Policy

Before the Pāla Dynasty, Shaivism struck roots in Bengal, but it was during that dynasty that Brahmaņa ministers enhanced their influence and established Hinduism over Buddhism. Especially during the reign of Narayanapala, Shaivism gained an extensive hold upon the minds of people of Bengal. Buddhism's prevalence in the region reduced, gradually becoming blended with Shaivism.[8]
