• heliodoras yavan hote hue bhi bhagavat dharm ka anuyayi ho gaya tha. usane devadhidev vasudev (vishnu) ka ek 'garu d stambh' banavaya tha, jise 'heliodoras stambh' bhi kaha jata hai. yah sari soochana ukt stambh par aankit hai, jisase prakat hota hai ki heliodoras ko mahabharat ka parichay tha.
• yah stambh lekh mahattvapoorn hai, kyoanki isase prakat hota hai ki eesa poorv doosari shatabdi mean yavanoan ne hindoo dharm svikar kar liya tha. isase vaishnav dharm ke kramik vikas par bhi prakash p data hai.
• heliodoras dvara banavaye ge garu d stambh se prapt abhilekh is prakar hai-

1. dev devas vasudevas garu dadhvaje ayan
2. karite ishy heliyo daren bhag
3. vartan diyas putren nakhasila ken
4. yon dooten agaten maharaj s
5. aantalikitas upata sakaru rajo
6. kasi pu (tr) (bha) g (bh) dras trataras
7. vasen (chatu) dasen rajen vadhamanas.

"! devadhidev vasudev ka yah garu dadhvaj (stambh) takshashila nivasi diy ke putr bhagavat heliovar ne banavaya, jo maharaj aantilikit ke yavan rajadoot hokar vidisha mean kashi (mata) putr (praja) palak bhagabhadr ke samip unake rajyakal ke chaudahavean varsh mean aye the."

• heliodoras dvara nirmit vidisha ka garu d stambh kala ka ek achchha namoona hai. vah moolat: ashok ke hi stambhoan ke adarsh par bana tha. par sath hi usamean kuchh maulik visheshatayean bhi haian. isaka sabase nichala bhag ath konoan ka hai. isi tarah madhy bhag solah kone ka aur oopari bhag battis kone ka hai. yah visheshata ashok ke stambhoan mean nahian dikhaee deti. isase lagata hai ki vidisha ke kalakar nipun the aur unaki pratibha maulik koti ki thi.
