Sheth Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #7 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ I do not mind your belief in any religion, the only substance of my preaching is - follow that religion, devotion and noble conduct by which you get rid of waste of your life. Take care; not as much as you do of your body, but many manifolds, of your soul, for eternal births are to be averted within this single present birth. One needs to contemplate all the while, over the fact that why one is much more fond of what is perishable, unstable, trivial, momentary, essenceless and forlorn. Vachanamrutji Patrank (Letters) 15, 84 & 810 Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra 5 Page #8 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PREFACE On the auspicious occasion of 150th Birth Anniversary year of Param Krupaludev Shrimad Rajchandraji and as part of the Celebrations, I am happy to publish the 2nd edition of this Bibliography. 1st print-edition and later e-edition was published in 2006. Since then many new books are published and hence this revised, updated e-edition is published. For variety of reasons, it is prepared as an e-edition that can be eco-friendly, printed only if required! It can be updated on a continuing basis. I request readers and publishers, to please send the details of their publications to update this Bibliography. One of the reasons of this compilation is to show that there is enough material in English for Atmasiddhi, the epic creation of nectar of Jain Scriptures of Agams. Atmasiddhi can be included in the course curriculum for Jain studies at Universities, not only in India but globally. There are about one hundred world-wide institutions, Ashrams, Mandirs, temples and organizations in the name of Shrimad Rajchandraji, and they publish books, audio and videos from time to time. Some institutions organize discourses, lectures, competitions, etc. that may be published for wider readership. I will appreciate if required information is provided for inclusion in this Bibliography. "Yugpurush - Mahatma na Mahatma", a play in Gujarati is captivating representation of special relationship between Shrimadji and Gandhiji, depicting the making of Mohandas to Mahatma. What began as an honest friendship, progressed to Gandhiji proclaiming Shrimadji as his spiritual mentor. Shrimad Rajchandraji, honoured as the spiritual guide of Mahatma Gandhi, had a tremendous and decisive influence on the Father of the Nation. This play will soon be done in English and it would be very good resource material for historical perspective relation between two Mahatmas (Great Souls), if the script is published in book form. In this edition, new entries from # 35 onwards are added. I have included new article about Param Krupaludev's Literature. Alphabetical List of Books, Index of Authors and Publishers' List are updated. Index of Contents of Books and two pictures have been removed. Sincerely thanks to those who have responded with information about English publications of their institutions and those who have helped in finding old records. * Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PREFACE OF FIRST EDITION Raichandbhai Ravjibhai Mehta, later known as Shrimad Rajchandra (10 November 1867 - 9 April 1901), is renowned for being a great Jain ascetic, a famous poet, a Shatavdhani (i.e. one who can perform 100 things at one time) as well as a mentor of Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948). His writings are published as Shrimad Rajchandra - Vachanamrut (immortal words or aphorisms), and include the remarkable text including Aatmasiddhi (Self-Realization). This 142-stanza work contains the essence of Jain philosophy. In addition to his own writings, he translated many scriptures into Gujarati from Prakrit and Sanskrit. Many Jains know about Shrimadji but very few other than Jains are aware about him or his writings. A considerable amount of information, including commentaries and notes, is available in Gujarati about Shrimadji, but little is published in English. A few publications have included bibliographical notes but they have not been comprehensive accounts. In addition, there is virtually nothing available for those with disabilities (e.g. in Braille or in large print for those who suffer from visual disabilities). The production of CDs, DVDs, and so on is not being pursued. The production of clear and concise materials, with respect to a familiar style-guide standard format and copyright laws, is needed. I have tried to be comprehensive by inviting others to contribute for this project with more information to make the listing an exhaustive one. I am thankful to all of them for their help. I am happy to publish this second edition with the inclusion of few more publications, brought to my attention and some new books published since the first edition was published. An opportunity is utilised to make minor changes or corrections. As an eco friendly gesture, instead of a printed hardcopy, only an electronic .pdf file copy is made available. | welcome readers' assistance in finding any unpublished works in any languages including Gujarati, for publication. You may either email at 4prakash@gmail.com or mail your comments at 37 Tuscarora Drive, North York, Ontario, M2H 2K4, Canada.* Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #10 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ OBSERVATIONS The following are my personal comments mentioned, in no order, in the hope that future writers and publishers may take these into consideration. This list provides the reader with an idea of what efforts ought to be undertaken before publishing, as well as offers suggestions on ways to raise awareness about Shrimadji's writings among a wider public. 1. Titles: Most books are titled appropriately and clearly but in few cases, it is not so. Book # 9 titled, as "Jeevankala" would be clear, if named as 'Life Sketch of Shrimadji being Translation of Jeevankala.' Compare this with Book # 25, The Self-Realization being the Translation of Attmasiddhi of Shrimad Rajchandra'. If a book is an English translation, then the title should be in English. That would make it suitable for searching and indexing. Detailed explanations or clarifications can be included inside. 2. Authors & Publishers: To date, it is mostly individuals and organizations of Shrimadii's followers who have published books about Shrimadii in English. Publishers like Motilal Banarasidas or Universities can publish translations of unpublished works or may sponsor new books in English. 3. Editions & Publication Years: Most books mention edition and publication year. In several cases reprint is treated as a new and different edition. Some books state the quantity printed. 4. Copyright & ISBN: Most publications do not mention copyright and ISBN information. It appears using content material in the absence of copyright permission and credit line is a common practice. 5. Price: Many books are priced below cost due to financial contributions from donors, whose pictures and or names are then listed. This is an admirable effort, as it allows for the sale of more books. Donations could also be used for free distribution to libraries. For instance, pictorial biographies for children can be distributed to school libraries, and publications dealing with philosophical issues may be sent free to universities or libraries, to reach a wider readership 6. Contents: Most books have 'Introductions' named differently like Preface, Foreword, and Author - Translator - Publisher's Note or About Us - Author. A few books have a section for Acknowledgements # 12 & 25; Errata # 19 & 20; Blessing # 12; and Donors' List & Pictures #3,4 & 11. Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 7. Language: Translations always pose some difficulties since it is often difficult to convey the exact meaning of a word from one language to another. In some books, Gujarati words of importance are retained, but often without translation, making it difficult for the non-Gujarati reader to fully grasp their meaning. In certain other cases, only English translated words are used without providing the original Gujarati words. The word may not be a true meaning of the original term, and without the Gujarati, it is difficult (for those who know both languages) to compare the terms. It would be better to use an English translated word along with the Gujarati word in parenthesis, as is commonly down in religious studies textbooks. 8. Transliteration: In view of the variety of spellings used, it would be preferable to include transliteration information at the beginning of the book. Only one book (#7) has 'Key to Pronunciation' information. 9. Suggestions for New Books: A few significant books in Gujarati, such as 'Shrimad Rajchandra's Jeevan ane Kavan' (Life & Works of Shrimad Rajchandra) by Pujyashri Rakeshbhai Jhaveri, ought to be translated into English. In addition, books like the 'Handbook to the Vachanmrut (Spiritual Teachings of Bhagwan Swaminarayan)' by Sadhu Mukundcharandas (which is in English) could be written and published about Shrimadji. An encyclopaedia of Shrimadji's writings would be useful from both a spiritual and academic perspective. 10. Audio Visual Aids: Audio-cassettes, books in Brail and large-print books are not yet available, but would undoubtedly be of value to individuals within our society. 11. Index: Several books lack index of subjects or words, making it difficult for quick and easy cross-referencing. 12. Sources and References: It would be appropriate to include the sources and references of the original texts in all translated works. 13. Religious Book: A note should request readers to treat the books with reverence and humility, and to not profane (Ashatna) them. Some books do advice against reading while wearing shoes or while smoking. Women are requested to avoid reading when they're during menstruation period. 14. Disposal: Not a single book mention anything about how it is to be treated or what is to be done if the religious book is unwanted or if it is spoilt? Easy way adopted by many is to drop it at a library! What does the library do with it? Is there any religious ceremony required to be done before it is shredded or put in recycle? Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra 9 Page #12 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 15. Calendars & Diaries: Calendars of a variety of types (perpetual, yearly, small table or big wall) are published in Gujarati. In English, only the "perpetual wall calendar" is available. There exist no diaries (such as the several varieties of 'Gandhi Diaries' that are available) with quotations of Shrimadji in Gujarati or English. Even a pocket calendar with quotations on the one side would raise awareness about the message of Shrimadji. To avoid disrespect or irreverence (ashatna), it would be best to avoid using images of Krupaludev. Instead quotations from his writings would be more appropriate. 16. Names & Spellings: It is standard practice to italicise non-English words to distinguish them as such in an English text. Care should also be taken to check the use of capitals for many words. In addition, consistency in spelling is required (e.g., Shrimadji or Shreemadji). There exists some confusion over the use of new or old place names, such as Cambay or Khambhat and Bombay or Mumbai. The standard practice is to use the new word as well as the old word in the parenthesis. This becomes significant when we do on-line electronic searches. 17. Years & Dates: Most books mention the year and date in the Vikram Samvant, without giving the corresponding English date, so that non-Indian readers find it difficult to grasp the period. Providing both dates would resolve this confusion. Alternatively, a note to add 56 years to the CE to make it in Vikram year or to add 526 years to make it in Vir year would be helpful. 18. Celebration Date: It is a standard practice to celebrate the holy days as per the Vikram or Vir Samvant dates. While writing in English, the corresponding English dates should be used, with the Samvant dates in parenthesis. 19. Cross Checking: While comparing the published "Lists of Institutions" run under Shrimadji's name, it was found that there exist several differences in the spelling and use of names, as well as in dates of establishment and addresses. This results in confusion. Publishers should be careful to include the original dates, as well as subsequent updates. 20. Style Guide: From the above discussion, it can be concluded that there is a real need to prepare "A Writer's Guide for Jainism" or "A Style Guide for Writing about Jainism". Such a guide would help convey accurate information and resources, as well as help avoid the inclusion of erroneous information on Jainism for the mainstream non-Jain public, in general and non-Indian media, in particular. * 10 Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY SHRIMADJI [Years are in Vikram Samvat.

Based on Shrimadni Jivansiddhi in Gujarati by Dr. Saryu R. Mehta, Mumbai.1970 Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PARAM KRUPALUDEV'S LITERATURE Treatises Poetic Compositions Translations and Commentaries Articles Aphorisms Personal Notes Letters Preachings Transcribed by Devotees Simple, crystal clear and directed solely at the seeker's internal growth, Shrimad Rajchandraji's teachings have been incessantly illuminating the spiritual path for thousands of seekers over the years. Religion, according to Him, is to realise the true innate nature of the soul. His teachings therefore emphasise a conduct in accordance with the spiritual and ethical norms, and the necessity of a Spiritual Master, a Guru, whose personal guidance is invaluable for one's spiritual advancement. He also emphasises an important precursor to the inward journey - single-minded focus towards the goal of self-realisation. Shrimadji's preachings are expressions of that which is unfathomable, inexhaustible and almost inexpressible - the experience of the ultimate reality of the Self. His prolific writings can be classified as follows. 1. Treatises Shrimadji authored several texts/treatises-some in prose, some in verse. Of these the principle ones are: Creation of Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra a) Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra Considered as the Atma Upanishad, Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra is the quintessence of His wisdom. Composed in a simple question-answer format, these 142 verses are compact yet profound in content. Composed in a single sitting of only one and a half hours, in Nadiad, Gujarat, at the young age of twenty-eight years, this magnum opus in philosophical literature, deals with the Soul and its existence, its eternal nature, its acquisition of karmic bondage, the consequences of that bondage, liberation from bondage and the path of attaining liberation and the Master. Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ b) Mokshmala This text combines philosophy with ethics, blends lucidity with simplicity and presents a straightforward exposition on the true nature of Jainism. 108 lessons on liberation have been authored in the short span of three days by Shrimadji at the tender age of sixteen years and five months. c) Bhavnabodh This small book inspires the seeker to cultivate twelve sentiments or attitudes in order to remain non-attached to the material world. d) Pratimasiddhi Shrimadji found worshipping the Jina idols extremely helpful in attaining selfrealisation. Expressing His beliefs He wrote a small manuscript called Pratimasiddhi. Unfortunately, only the parts with the initial preface and conclusion are available. The main content of the text is unavailable. 2. Composition of Apurva Avsar Poetic Compositions Shrimadji also penned close to twenty poetic compositions of spiritual content, reflecting the intensity of His endeavour for self-emancipation. Though most of them are in Gujarati, a few have also been composed in Hindi. His compositions serve as windows to His Inner Self, reflections of His exalted state. Each word exudes the nectar of His wisdom and guidance along the path of liberation. While some of them elucidate the importance and greatness of the Sadguru, some espouse inner detachment and reveal the path of self-realisation. Spiritual in content, these exquisitely crafted compositions induce detachment and selfawareness. His words have the ability to inspire spirituality even in the hearts of those hankering after material happiness. Some of the popular compositions which are regularly recited in many hearts and homes are: Apurva Avsar Evo Kyare Aavshe Mool Marg Sambhlo Jinno Re Bina Nayan Pavey Nahi Hey Prabhu! Hey Prabhu! Shu Kahu Yam Niyam Sanjam Aap Kiyo Ichche Chhe Je Jogijan Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Shrimadji writing commentaries 3. Translations And Commentaries For the benefit of seekers, sections of many Jain sutras and scriptures have been translated by Shrimadji into Gujarati. Notable amongst these are: * Shri Ratnakarandshravakachar Shri Uttaradhyayan Sutra Shri Dashvaikalik Sutra Jnanarnav Panchastikay * Dravyasangrah He has also written commentaries on certain sections of some important religious literature. These are: * Swaroday Jnan * Navtattva Prakran * Jivatattva Sambhandhi Vichar Samayasarnatak Aath Yogdrashtini Sajjhay Anandaghan Chovishi 4. Articles Shrimadji has written various articles. Some articles are titled, 'Muni Samagam', 'Jainmarg Vivek', 'Mokshsiddhant'; however, for the most part, either the complete article is unavailable or has been left incomplete. 5. Aphorisms About 1,116 moral and spiritual aphorisms compiled under various headings, such as, 'Pushpamala', 'Bodhvachan', 'Mahaniti', 'Vachanamrut' etc., have been written by Shrimadji, offering an insight into His deep rumination on universal subjects like conduct, correct thinking, ethics, straightforwardness, discrimination etc. Some address the readers as words of advice, some as preachings and others as general definitions. All of these reflect Shrimadji's profound interest in spirituality. Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra Page #18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 6. Personal Notes These are profound narratives which encompass His autobiography till the age of twenty two, His deep contemplation on metaphysical subjects, His unfathomable intrinsic state, beautiful poetic compositions as well as His thoughts on the various manuscripts He had intended to write. All these are included in the following works: Samucchay vayacharya Rojnishi Nondhbook * Haathnondh 7. Letters One of the priceless legacies of Shrimadji is the letters written to his disciples giving them guidance at every step of their spiritual growth and as such enormous insight into the problems a seeker faces and how to get over them. These can be universally used by any seeker at any time as a pathfinder at every stage of his progress. 8. Preachings Transcribed By Devotees On His travels to the areas of Kathiawad and Charotar, in Gujarat, Shrimadji would grace devotees and their homes with His august presence. Preachings and discussions on philosophy would ensue, often taking the form of questionanswers between the Guru and His devotees. These pearls of wisdom would be cherished and later penned, based on memory by the gratified devotees, sometimes even shown to Shrimadji Himself who would then fondly make the necessary corrections to the notes. These were then collated into four volumes entitled: * Updeshnondh * Updeshchhaya * Vyakhyansaar-1 * Vyakhyansaar-2 Thus, an integral part of Shrimadji's literature also includes these transcriptions made by His devotees. All the aforesaid teachings have been incorporated in a spiritually uplifting text entitled 'Shrimad Rajchandra', lovingly called 'Vachnamrut', which till date continues to quench the thirst of thousands of seekers, bestowing invaluable guidance on their journey to self-discovery. Shrimadji's teachings left an indelible mark on Gandhiji. Shrimadji's priceless letters and compositions were his constant companions - physically and mentally. He contemplated upon them and he also often recited Shrimadji's Bibliography of Literature in English About Shrimad Rajchandra 16 Page #19 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ poem "Nirkhine Nav Yauvana' to strengthen his belief in celibacy. He had also rendered Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra into English prose. In fact, he had carried this text of Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra and some of the letters from Shrimadji with him to London - but the entire bundle was lost on a bus journey. Shrimadji's unique composition. 'Apurva Avsar Evo Kyare Aavshe?' was one of Gandhiji's favourite compositions which was included in his 'Ashram Bhajanavali' - a collection of devotional songs sung at his daily public prayer meetings. Gandhiji writes about Shrimadji's works, "The lines of his poem, 'When Will That Unique Moment Come?' (Apurva Avasar Evo Kyare Aavshe) are soaked in the spirit of detachment which I have seen epitomised in every moment of Shrimad's life during my last two years of deep and abiding friendship with him. His writings are unique in that, they unfold his real experience and do not contain even a single grain of artificiality. I have never seen him writing a single line with the ulterior motive of pleasing others. "[Raichandbhai na Ketlak Smarano - Shri Rajchandra Jeevanyatra tatha vicharratno, page 94] "It is my firm belief that those who want to free themselves from the torture of their souls, and are eager to know what is their main duty in this life, will gather a lot from Shrimad's writings, then may he be a Hindu and for that matter, follower of any other religion." [Raichandbhai na Ketlak Smarano - Shri Rajchandra Jeevanyatra tatha vicharratno, page 89] Contribution To The Nation Gandhiji's memorable accounts on Shrimadji testify the profound influence that Shrimadji's personality exerted on the Mahatma's life. Shrimadji's emphasis on truth, compassion and non-violence in every walk of life, later crystallised as the fundamental tenets of Gandhism, which played a significant role in the Indian struggle for independence. In the history of India, the success of Gandhiji's nonviolent struggle as a means of achieving freedom will be engraved in golden letters. Even in the history of the world his unique contributions will be immortalised. Gandhiji, who has been praised by the whole world as a messenger of non-violence, will ever remain indebted to the teachings of Shrimadji. Thus the role of Shrimadji's spiritual teachings in the regeneration of a new India can hardly be exaggerated. The inner bond between Shrimadji and Mahatma Gandhi initiated a brilliant new chapter, not only in their own lives, or in the history of Gujarat, but in the cultural, political and spiritual history of the entire nation.

Deluded in darkness, the disciple meets with the light of wisdom, and the metamorphosis from a caterpillar to a winged butterfly unfolds. When the disciple can fathom and comprehend the greatness of the Master, he delves into the majestic, inner state.

With His skilful and loving guidance, the aspirant slowly but surely, with persistence and faith overcomes the blocks - gracefully progressing on the path to self-realisation. When he advances to surrender everything at the altar of the Guru, learns the art of living in His folds and transforms his being, it is then that Divine Union is attained. This journey of a beautiful Guru - shishya relationship, with all its profound facets and fascinating nuances is uncovered and portrayed in Mokshmulam Gurukrupa - a compilation of four soul-stirring discourses by Pujyashri Gurudev.

When someone conducts a scientific experiment, the conclusions become universal laws. In the science of spirituality, however, every individual need to undergo the experiment for himself because the knowledge of the Self cannot be borrowed. To bring about an inner revolution, the Sadguru lovingly encourages the disciple to experiment with the teachings and experience the results for himself. This encouragement leads to constant experimentation and the experience of an unprecedented shift in beliefs and behaviour, leading to enlightenment. Commemorating the occasion of Pujya Gurudevshri's Golden Jubilee Year, 150th Birth Anniversary the book aptly named 'Sadguru Encourages' has been launched, which is an offering of 50 special experiments for inner blossoming that will help you face the varied challenges that arise on the path of liberation.
