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 Sevamandira 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. Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, Poona, India October 30, 1987 R. N.

If so, which ruler out of several ones is meant here? (ii) Is * Vikramaditya' a designation - title (upadhi) 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 Vikramaditya. It seems there is no independent non-Jaina work in Sanskrit in this connection. Only stray references occur in the following works : Work Author Date 1) kathAsaritsAgara (lambhaka 18) somadeva bhaTTa i.sa. 1810 2) bRhatkathAmaJjarI kSemendra i.sa. 1024 -, 1080 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 Divakara 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 Gunadhya may have given some information In Pesai, (Paisaci ) in the work known in Sanskrit as Brhatkatha.
