This third edition of the Antakrid Dasanga Sutra is being published by the committee for the benefit of the readers who are practitioners of the Bhagavadvani.
The committee is proud to acknowledge the contribution of the late revered Yuvacharya Shri Madhukaramuni Ji M.Sa., who was a member of the Shraman Sangh. He inspired the publication of the Bhagavadvani in its original language, Prakrit, along with its meaning, interpretation, discussion, and commentary in the widely accepted vernacular language, Hindi. Although he is no longer with us, his blessings and the outlined plan for publication continue to guide us. In accordance with this, we are publishing the Agam literature as a token of our gratitude and as a tribute to him.
On this occasion, we are pleased to mention that every member of the society has contributed to this endeavor, thereby approving the propagation of the Jinvani and inspiring us to work.
We express our gratitude to the scholars whose support has enabled the committee to successfully complete its task. The committee once again congratulates them.
The translation of the Antakrid Dasanga Sutra has been done by the learned Sadhvi Shri Divyaprabhaji M., M.A., Ph.D., who is a disciple of the late revered Sadhvi Ratna Shri Ujjvalkumariji M. and a follower of the late revered Acharya Samrat, the National Saint, Shri Anandrishiji M.Sa. Although her mother tongue is Gujarati, the impactful style in which she has presented the Hindi translation, etc., is a testament to her scholarship and linguistic expertise. The committee highly commends her and her efforts.
We remember with reverence the late revered Acharya Pravar Shri Devendramuni Ji M.Sa. Shastri, whose introduction to every Agam text is a literary piece in itself. He not only reveals the essence of the text but also presents many important references, which are useful and significant for those who study comparative literature.
Finally, the committee requests all its readers and fellow students to note that the publication of the third edition of the Agam texts is ongoing. We hope to make all the texts of the Agam Battisi available to you soon. We hope that your support will continue to inspire us.
