But as is often the case, a close acquaintance with a religion brings out its good side and creates a much more favourable opinion of it as a whole than can be obtained by a merely objective literary acquaintance. As to the literature, this 103

samayane oLakho. As soon as my work on the Typical Selec. tions in Prakrits for the Calcutta University is over I am proposing to plan a new and critioal edition of the whole of the Jain Canonical works and the Niryuktis. I have discuseed this item with Prof. Jacobi and he has assured me his advice whenever I seek it. So far three different editions of Jain works have been published & yet none of them are available & none of them Scientific & Critijal. Though the Agamodaya Samiti edition is much better, it was planned for Jain monks and not for philo. gists who want the edition budly. Some stray books edited by European Scholars are very use. ful to them but even these are now rare. If a critical edition is designed. I think it will not be banned by the Jain monks, but would be of great service to the students of Modern Uni. versities and of religion and philology. I felt this difficulty when I had to teach Ardha Magadbi to my students. To state a particular case, Rayapaseniyaentta is appointed for the next year in our University the long promised edition of Agamodaya Samiti is not forth coming, and even if it is published. I am

Last year I seoured with great diffioulty the Calcutta edition of the work, but as it could not be read by my students I had to dictate to them checking the text by the belp of some available works to me. To give you some idea of the proposed edition : the text without commentary; extracts from commentary; the Niryukti text; bard Index to the text and Niryukti;marginal references;. references to repetitions, etc. The Volumes to be published according to the order of the scriptures and in an edition of 2000 copies :. books from octavo, Devanagri type on very superior paper.
