PREFACE
1st. Edition
The Jaina Darshana Sara is prescibed as a Text-Book for M. A. by the Rajputana (Raiasthan) University. I have great pleasure in editing this work which is written by my much esteemed and learned friend Pandit Chainsukhdas, Nyaytirtha, the Principal of the Jain Sanskrit College, Jaipur. He is well acquainted with all the Indian systems of Philosophy and as such he can, with a certain amount of authority, speak or write on any subject connected with them. I am conscious of my incapacity to edit the book. But I have done it only as a labour of love and I hope the students may find the Introduction and the Notes to be of some help to them.
