The undersigned takes this opportunity of expressing his sense of deep satisfaction at the fact that young ArdhaMagadhi graduates are coming forward to undertake editions of several books of the Jain Literature. There will be had within a short time now a deep thorough going comparative study of the Jain Religion and philosophy by graduates of the Bombay University conversant with the critical methods of the West and there will be available independent original epitomes and treatises on Jainism over and above editions of the old Agama and non-Agama texts.
