Pojya Aryika Ratna Shri Gyanmati Mataji is also a Paras Mani. Every body who comes to her will became like gold. She makes her pupils like herself even greater than herself. It reflects her greatness and politeness. By her inspiration many unmarried girls and other ladies have taken oath of Aryika and Kshullika eksha. Men also have taken oath of Bramhacharya Vrat and Muni Deeksha. Shri Gyanmati Mataji is the first Bal Bramha Charini in this century, who took oath of Aryika eksha in her childhood. Many high Granthas have been taught by her to her pupils. Hence her owledge has increased in abundance. She is an ancient and learned Aryika at the present moment. By her inspiration Jamboodweep has in constructed at Hastinapur. Gyan Jyoti was inaugrated by Late Smt. Indira Gandhi at 4th June, 32. That was result of her blessing also. It has made her immortal glory all over India. She has written about two hundred books, out of which more than one hundred twenty five books ve also been published. Shri Gyanmati Mataji was born on the night of Sharat Poornima. It is lieved that the Moon rains Amrit on that night. Hence Gyanmati Mataji is also raining Gyan Amrit the earth. In childhood her name was Maina. As Maina a tribe of bird likes to fly in the open sky and es not like prisoned in a cage. Similarly Km. Maina is also freely wandering under the open sky in this orld. She has left the family cage. It will not be hyperbolic if she is treated as an incarnation of Saraswati. I have got knowledge of Ratnatrya from her, so I am very much obliged to her. I took oath of llowing Bramhacharya from her at the age of twelve years. After that, time to time I took oath of many ligious principles from her and always I am getting benefit of her great knowledge. Shri Ganini Aryika Gyanmati Mataji gave me Aryika Deeksha at Hastinapur at place Pilgrimage 1 13th August, 1989 and gave me Aryika name as CHANDNA MATI. I got so much love in whole of my life from her as a Person gets from his parents, brothers, sisters id preceptors. I can never pay her debt throughout my life. It is my great desire that I may become a receptor like her in my future life also. I pray that till I get liberation, her blessing may be available to le. It is my courteous homage to her.

-Km. Astha Jain Time to time many great souls have taken birth in India. There were 24 'Teerthankaras' in Arya-khanda of Bharat Kshetra of Jamboo-Dweep. The first Teerthanker' was shri Adinath & last Lord Mahaveer. The first Digamber Muni was Charitra Chakraverti Acharya Shri Shantisagarji Maharaj of 20th century. Shri Veersagarji Maharaj was the first disciple of Shri Santisagerji Maharaj. In the present time 105 Ganini Aryika Ratna Shri Gyanmati Mataji had taken 'Diksha' from Veersagerji Maharaj. Mataji was born in 1934 in a small village "Tikaitanager' district Barabanki. She is the first daughter of mother 'Mohini' & father Shri 'Chhotelal'. When Mataji left her house, she was only 18 years old. She studied up to fourth class only but today she is the most learned Aryika in the history of 2 thousand years. Today Mataji is the first lady who has written many scriptures & translated in Hindi. Mataji has a deep knowledge about 'Jain Mythologies'. When Mataji translated Ashtasahasri', then the whole Jain Society has astonished. Once Mataji was meditating in front of the image of Lord Bahubali in Shravanbelgol (Karnataka) then Mataji saw the model of Jamboo-Dweep. This model has been realized in Hastinapur. Hundreds spectators come here to see it. I also came here to see Jamboo-Dweep, & its solemn atmosphere impressed me so much that I decided to live near Mataji. Today I am studing under the shadow of Mataji.

J.D. Dhanal M.A. (Prakrit) Kolhapur I was under the impression since long that the contribution of many of the latest Jain monks and aryikas, to the Jain religious literature, is little as well as poor. But the Valuable and vast works written by Aryikaratna Gyanamatiji have made me change the above supposition. Realy she is not only a brilliant Aryika to grasp the essence of the scriptures, but also she is creative writer of high quality. She has, as if, magically composed the gist of the subtle principles into a serene stream of sweet neetre. Sharp intelligence and versatile writing capacity are the main virtues of her personality. She has parental love for every one who is pious in heart. She urges such persons to increase their pious attitude. An urge to uplift everyone is her basic mood. Pandit Motilal Kothariji (Phaltan), myself with family members, had gone to Jambudweep-Hastinapur. After having completed the teaching camp we were saying good-bye to the Mataji. She then said, "Make your mind to visit this place once a year for your soul's welfare (Atma kalyan)". How sweet were the words and how kind the heart. Once we were listening to her sermon. She was stern in attacking females who used to take part in Dramas and dances which had no aim of moral teaching. She was very caucious to point evil effects of such practice of queer entertainment. She paid due respect to the learned Pandits who really had done service to the community, by writing literary works on Jain Philosophy. On the Ist day of the education camp, she came to Pandit Motilal Kothari, and suggested to preside over the complete Session of the camp as Kulapati ( fa). She inquired about his health, meals and other requirements. He was treated for his deafness. The most important thing she did was that Pandit Kothari had entirely edited and prepared a press-copy of Shlokvartik (Fallchairah) of Acharya (3798) Vidyanandi (feria), He had shown it to some persons with a view to get it published. The Mataji was happy to see the Manuscript and immediately accepted it for publication in due time. What a great respect for knowledge and the learned ones she had. Pujya Aryikaratna Gyanamatiji has influencing personality. Any one who is in her company, has to work hard, be pious and develope the soul to a better state. Many a scholars have blossomed under the kind guidance of the Mataji. Br. Ravindra Jain (ao is the best editor of (HR ) monthly, the young Aryika Pujya Chandanamatiji (qo Gradisi), the versality writer, are a few examples to note. The Jambudweep sthala has an air of heavenly bliss. The ample supply of sweet water, the fresh open air, the temples, the Jambudweep the Meru mountain, the rooms for chowkas and the holy atmosphere wrapped with the punyaskandhas due to the monks and Aryikas; all these things have made the Jambudweep sthala, a good place for penance. Let the name of Gyanamati Mataji, let the place of Jamboodweep, and let all the known and unknown makers of Trilok Shodha Sansthan, live long with fame spread in the Trilok (FSC).

Patil, Gen. Secretry, Dakshin Bharat Jain Sabha For Personal and Private Use Only "BHARAT" is an ancient land of various precious cultures enchating and enriching the human life through their philosophical teachings. Jainisam has been second to none in its teaching-utmost endeavour for salvation. Param Pujya Jian Acharyas and Aryikas were the real torch bearess who by their ideal practicies and preachings of austerity, simplicity, and sincerity showed the real way to enternal happiness-salvation. In these beads of beaconing lights Param Pujya Gyanmati Mataji has been a prominant one. Really a fountain of Gyan, Darshan and Charitrya has been doing the singular sacred religious work. Pujya Mataji's renunciation of wordly affairs and acceptance of the ascetic life, touring the nook and corner of the land, deep study of misterious Jain granthas, profound interest in and creation of Jain literature, establishment of Jambudweep, spreed of Jambudweep Gyanjyoti's massage of unity, morality and cult of non violence, periodical and publications to propogate religious tenets and to crown all above setting up of an University for renascence of our encient precious culture deserve thousands of our salutations. After years of gaps great souls are born to kindle the spirit of religious righteousness.
