'श्री. आदिनाथ उपाध्याय जैन प्राकृत तथा इतर जैन साहित्यके प्रगाढ़ पंडित हैं । प्रसिद्ध ग्रंथ 'प्रवचनसार' का सुंदर और सर्वांगपूर्ण संस्करण निकालकर उन्हों ने पहले ही विद्वन्मंडली में आदर और सत्कार पाया है । प्रस्तुत ग्रंथके द्वारा उन्हों ने अपनी कीर्ति को और उज्ज्वल किया है । इतने सुसंपादित ग्रंथ बिरले ही देखनेको मिलते हैं ।
