PUBLISHER'S NOTE
We are happy to publish The Truth by Dr. O.P. Jain, an efficacious book which enlightens readers on Jainological and other allied subjects. The book has been effectively designed and written in a very simple, understandable and colloquial English conducive to all sorts of readers. The Truth throws sufficient light on the fundamentals of Jainism. This is for the second time that Shri Veer Nirvan Granth Prakashan Samiti has undertaken publication of a book in Englisn. The first book, say a brochure, was brought out in 1975 under the title Life and Teachings of Lord Mahaveera by Dr. K.C. Jain, which was most welcomed in and outside the country.
In Hindi, the Samiti has many useful and valuable publications to her credit. Anuttar Yogi : Tirthankar Mahaveera, an epic-novel in 3 big volumes by Shri Virendrakumar Jain is a timeenduring publication. In the same way Vaishali Ke Rajkumar Tirthankar Vardhaman Mahaveera by Dr. Nerrichand Jain written in rhythmic prose style is also a publication of which Samiti feels great proud. The Samiti is fortunate enough to publish almost all works of Rev. Upadhyaya Munishri Vidyanandaji, an awakened Digamber Jain Monk of India.
We feel extremely indebted to the learned author and to the Press Manager who in their respective turns left no stone unturned. in bringing out the present book.
