PREFACE.
I overcame my hesitation to allow the Bhadrabahu Samhita to appcar just now. However, I am confident that, cven in its present form, thc book will rcmovc a rcal want and be of usc lo pcoplc interested in the study or application of Jaina Law. I am aware of four most important works of Jaina Law : Bhadrabahu Samhila, Arhannili, Vardhamana Nili, Indranandi Samhila. The first is translated here. The texts of the sccond and the third arc available in print. The text of the fourth, I have oblained through thc kindness of Pandit Fatch Chandji of Delhi which is printed herc as Appendix A.
