"The best book for learning the Tattvarthsutra!"The Tattvarthsutra is a well known Sanskrit philosophical work of 357 Sutras. It enjoys universal popularity amongst all Jains and students of Indian philosophy. This is easily the best Hindi commentary and exposition on the Tattvarthsutra. The Hindi translation is authentic as well as simple. For a first time reader of the Tattvarthsutra, I cannot recommend a better book.
SAMAYSAR (Prakrit - Hindi)
By Acharya Kund Kund
Hindi Exposition by Kshullak Ganeshprasad Varni
Shri Ganesh Varni Digamber Jain Sansthan, Varanasi; Ist edition1969
Third hardcover edition 2002, 470 pages
Rs. 150.00
"Far & away the best work on the Samaysar done in the 20th century".The Samaysar by Acharya Kund Kund is the apex of Jain wisdom. It is the fountainhead of Jain Adhyatma. Down the ages, many scholars have translated the Samaysar; written scholarly expositions and commentaries on the Samaysar. The first and foremost Sanskrit rendering of the Samaysar, the Atmakhyati, was done by Acharya Amritchandra Soori and the second by Acharya Jaysen was, known as the Tatparyavritti. Many Hindi works, including Kavivar Banarsidas's famous Natak Samaysar, have been composed on the Samaysar.
None more famously than Poojya Kshullak Varniji's current work. Varniji spent the better part of his literary life as a Shravak holding the seventh Pratima and then as a Kshullak, thatis why I referred to him by the latter title. But before voluntary death (Sallekhana) he had taken full ascetic vows and became a Digamber monk, 108 Muni Shri Ganeshkirti Maharaj. Of course, he is universally known, among the world of scholars and savants of Jainism, as Kshullak Ganeshprasad Varni. Varnij was the foremost seeker of Adhyatma in his generation, and a peerless scholar. He studied the Samaysar for the better part of five decades. His deep grasp of the innner meaning of the Samaysar resulted in this book - His sermons on the Samaysar.
JAIN DARSHAN (Hindi)
By Nyayacharya Dr. Mahendrakumar Jain
Shri Ganesh Varni Digamber Jain Sansthan, Varanasi; Ist edition1955
Hardcover edition 1974, 455 pages
Rs. 75.00
"A classic handbook on Jain Doctrine written by a master of Jain Darshan".Jain Darshan teaches the path of salvation, treading on which man remains tranquil and at peace with himself and his world. Thus man lives in harmony with the society and the universe. The teachings of Bhagwan Mahavir were based on the mutliplicity of reality and the highest pinnacle of individual freedom. That is why Jain conduct leads one towards a non-violent and eco friendly life.
Jain Darshan shows where other philosophies go wrong, and yet because of its facet of Anekant, shows the road to peaceful co-existence. This inherent practicality of Jain Darshan enshrined in reality-based ethics, leads to intellectual freedom, harmonious acceptance of disagreeing views and non-violent conduct of mind, speech and body.
Nyayacharya Dr. Mahendrakumar Jain was the finest scholar of Jain Darshan in his time. He mastered all the philosophies of India. He lived and worked in Varanasi. He died at a young age, and yet left behind a great body of work. Of these, Jain Darshan is the jewel in the crown.

"Celebrated work of Jain Logic, explaining Praman, Nay and Nikshep in a succinct manner".Acharya Akalankdev lived in the 8th century CE. He was a scholar of Jain logic in the grand tradition of Acharyas Samantabhadra and Siddhasen Diwakar. Acharya Akalankdev played the central role in preserving the Jain Agam tradition and building Jain Nyayashastra. He wrote two Sanskrit commentaries, The Tattvarthvartik, based on Umaswati's Tattvarthsutra, and the The Ashtashati, based on Samantabhadra's AptaMimansa. He wrote four original works in Sanskrit, the Laghisyastray, the NyayaVinishchay, the SiddhiVinishchay and the PramanSangrah. Also he is said to have written the Swarup Sambodhan.
The Laghiyastray, as is evident from the name, is a collection of three short works by Akalankdev in Sanskrit on Praman, Nay and Nikshep. While staying true to the Jain Agamic tradition, the author has critically analysed other philosophies and with his logic, he has greatly enhanced the Jain Nyay tradition.

"A veritable treasure trove for any serious student of Jainism"Siddhantacharya Pt. Phoolchandra ji was a giant of his time. He was one of the finest scholars of the Jain Siddhant who lived in the 20th century. A proud Indian, a freedom fighter, an acitivist for the abolishment of untouchability, Pt. Phoolchandraji was an intellectual colossus, and a man of many parts.
The Felicitation Volume not only has all the greatest scholars of that time writing on Panditji, but also contains many of Panditji's hitherto unpublished articles and essays on various topics concerning Jainism.

Hardcover edition 1980, 579 pages
Rs. 101.00
"A veritable treasure trove for any serious student of Jainism"Siddhantacharya Pt. Kailashchandra ji Shastri was an institution by himself. A great educator, scholar, thinker and editor of Jain literature, he was a master of Prakrit, Apabhransh, Sanskrit and Hindi. Along with Pt. Phoolchandraji Shastri and Pt. Jaganmohanlalji Shastri, he made up a triumvirate of great Jain scholars, know as the "Ratnatray". He was at the forefront of Jain scholarship in the mid 20th century.
The Felicitation Volume is unique because apart from a few brief articles extolling the virtues of Panditiji, it has other sections dealing with Dharma & Darshan, Sahitya, Jain History & Archaeology, The Scientific Aspect of Jainism, Current Research Horizons in Jainisim & Jain Study in the West.
The Volume is certainly a collector's item, to be treasured notonly as a memorial to a great scholar of Jainism, but also because ofthe vast information it contains through many well-researchedarticles written by a galaxy of Jain scholars.

Review: This is a beautiful book! It takes the best known and universally accepted Gujarati Stavanas of the each of the first five Tirthankars, and critically analyses each verse, explains its inner meaning, making additional comments and annotations wherever necessary. Any Jain who has felt true devotion for the Tirthankars, will treasure this book, as it explains the deepest meaning and immerses the reader in Bhakti Ras (devotional ardour). It is hoped that the author will continue this series and ensure that the best, most popular Stavanas of each Tirthankar are exlplained in such a comprehensive manner.

SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT
PARMATMA PRAKASH
An Apabhransh work on Jain Mysticism
By Yogindu Dev
English Tr. R D Jain, Comm. Dr. A N Upadhyeji
Radiant
Rs. 300.00
Acharya Yogindu was a Jain philospher and mystic, who lived in the 6th century. In Parmatma Prakash, Acharya Yogindu explains how lasting peace and happiness may be attained. He adumbrates how one may attain the highest stage of personal development through conqeuring one's weaknesses. Empty rituals and meaningless customs and traditions are criticised. Acharya Yogindu emphasises that the path to Spiritual Enlightenment lies in the rigorous pursuit of Ratnatray, not in Tantra, Mantra or Mandal.The translation and esp. the commentary do justice to the great work.
THE PATH TO ENLIGHTENMENT
SWAYAMBHU STOTRA
Sanskrit hymns to the 24 Swayambhus (Tirthankars)
By Acharya Samantbhadra
English Tr. D K Goyal
Radiant
Rs. 400.00
Acharya Samantbhadra lived in the 2nd century and was a versatile genius and the progenitor of Jain Nyay (Jain logic). His Aptamimansa was the first systematic exposition on Jain Nyay. The Swayambhustotra is a systematic exposition of Samyak Darshan, Samyak Gyan and Samyak Charitra. The author skilfully achieves this by expounding the fundamentals of Jainism, Ahinsa, Aparigrah, Anekant and Syadvad. He explains the rationale behind Bhakti (devotion), the prime importance of compassion, and highlights the virutes of self-restraint, renunciation and meditation.Acharya Samantbhadra's mastery of Sanskrit poetics is evident in this beautiful work, where 13 different Chhandas have been used. This elegant Sanskrit work is also known as the Chaturvinshati Jin Stotra.
The English prose translation is very good. Unfortunately, no one has attempted a poetic translation in English of this beautiful work.
SPIRITUAL INSIGHTS
ISHTOPDESH and SAMADHISHATAK
The Divine Discourse and 100 Verses on Contemplation
By Acharya Pujyapad
English Tr. & Comm: C R Jain and Raoji Shah
Radiant
Rs. 300.00
Acharya Pujyapad was a great scholar monk, spiritualist and thefounder of the Jain tradition of Yoganubhuti. He is best known forhis classic commentary on the "Tattvarthsutra", the"Sarvarthasiddhi". Acharya Pujyapad was one of the greatest Sanskritgrammarians of ancient India. His "Jainendra Vyakaran" is thebenchmark Jain work on Sanskrit grammar.
Here is what Acharya Mahapragyaji, the current head of theTerapanth has written on Acharya Pujapad.
"Samadhi Tantra" of Pujyapad (4th - 5th century A.D.) is aninexhaustible source of spiritual experiences. In "Ishtopdesh" alsoPujyapad has delved deep into spiritualism. A reader cannt but bedeeply touched by his spiritual insights. Pujyapad is thefountainhead of the tradition of Yoganubhuti, i.e. self-contemplationand realization".
