FOREWORD
The press-copy of this volume of the Descriptive Catalogue of Manuscripts was prepared by the Late Professor H. R. Kapadia many years ago. It was found to need considerable rechecking, revision, and editing befdre it could be sent to press. In the true Jaina spirit of selfless piety and fraternity, Shri Jobarimal Parakh offered to do this work for the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute. This was but in perfect conformity with the exemplary missionary service which he has been rendering to the cause of Jaina religion, philosophy, and literature tbrough the Sevāmandira of Jodhpur. Shri. Parakh specially came down to Poona, carefully examined each entry in the press-copy, made the necessary additions and omissions in it, and thus gave it a presentable shape. Even at the risk of causing him some discom. fiture, I convey to Shri Parakh the grateful thanks of the Instituto for his kind collaboration.
I have also to thank the Ministry of Education, Goverment of India, for its generous grant towards this publication.

Author - Sanghadāsa Gani. He has composed 29 Lambhakas of
which 19 and 20 are lost. His namesake has composed a
bhasa (bhāsya) on Kappa (Brhatkalpa). Subject-Life of Vasudeva, father of Lord Krsna. His wanderings so
to say transmigrations are described here in 100 Lumbhakas. Vidvadvallabha muni Punyavijayaji had written an article.
Alsdorf believes that this work is a rendering of Brhatkathā of Guņādhya. He has discussed its language. Jinadāsa Gapi has utilized Vasudevahindi in his Cūrni on Avassaya. It is reproduced in Jñānāñjali. There some details about this work are given. A detailed information of six prakaranas is to be met with in • जैन साहित्य का बृहद् इतिहास' (Vol. VI. pp. 141-143,
Prof. V. M. Kulkarni has observed in his article published in JOI (Vol. 2, pt. 2) that the story of Rama given here differs from Paumacariya. Sitā is here mentioned as a daughter of Mandodari.

Reference - For details about his life the following Gujarati article of mine may be consulted:
“ Vikramaditya and Jaina Sahitya"l Hereio I have mentioned the various views regarding three questions : (i) Is Vikramāditya, the name of a ruler ? If so, which ruler out of several ones is meant here? (ii) Is • Vikramaditya' a designation - title (upādhi) of various rulers ? and (iii) Who started Vikrama era and why? In this article I have given a list throwing light on the life of Vikramāditya. It seems there is no independent non-Jaina work in Sanskrit in this connection. Only stray references occur in the following works :

क्षेमेन्द्र इ.स. १०२४ -, १०८० In Tattvakaumudi, (a comm. on Haribhadra Suri's Damsana. sattari) composed by Sanghatilaka Suri in V.S. 1422, there is a Prakrit narration of Siddhasena Divākara on pp. 139147. Herein some of the episodes pertaining to Vikramaditya are treated.
1. This is published in Jaina Satya Prakasa ( Nos. 100-102 i.e. Vol. 8,
Nos. 4-6 as • Vikrama-visesanka') 2. By the large I may add that Guņādhya may have given some information
In Pesai, (Paisaci ) in the work known in Sanskrit as Brhatkatha.
