Editorial
We have been extremely careful in maintaining the content of Jain Dharma k Maulika Itih sa (abridged) as it is without any changes / or adding comments by us so as to retain the authentic writings of c rya r Hast mala J M.S. Thus the English translation carries his scholarship and research over an extended period of over twenty years.
In this English edition, we have tried to keep some of the definitive terms of Jainism as they are and give their English equivalent (as much representative as possible) on the first occurrence and also listed at the end of this note. To appreciate their understanding and pronunciation, we have used diacritical marks for legendary names of persons / texts / places and the definitive Jain terms e.g. amga meaning the limb or part and commonly written as anga, etc.
We express my thanks to following translators and other support staff members for their contribution to bring out Jain Legend
