જ્ઞાનાંજલિ
men of letters working in different Universities and Institutions, both in India and outside. His is, therefore, a life of cooperative scholarship. He has a remarkable memory for details. He is equipped with deep learning
outlook; and he is a veritable stock of information on Jainolo
und allied branches of Indian learning. Not only he easily shares his information with his other colleagues but also helps with material as well different scholars working in various fields of studies. He has obliged the community of scholars more fruitfully than even a big institution can claim to do."
His research methodology has its special characteristics. He never embarks on speculative hair-splitting He goes on putting forth fresh information and unquestioned facts. He is not required to argue out his case too much. His conclusions naturally follow.
I only pray and earnestly wish that Muvi Shri Punya vijayaji lives a long career with a healthy body and vigorous mind leading his religi. ous and scholarly life for his spiritual benefit as well as for the advancement of learning.

IX Dear Prof. Sandesara,
I am glad to know that you are bringing out some kind of an appreciation volume in honour of Muni sri Punyavijayaji who has completed 60 years of Diksha paryaya.
There is hardly any scholar in Jainology of Muni sri Punyavijayji's standing. His high intellectual attainments lead him to difficult fields hich he unhesitatingly traverses and finally reaches the goal. The textual problems of the Prakrit texts which defy solution are quite casy for him to solve. But he is not merely a dry scholar but has a keen eye for objects of art. Many superb examples of Jain paintings lying unnoticed have been discovered by him. To him goes the credit of bringing them to the notice of the scholars. He is always ready to help young scholars and whenever they request for his help he gives it to them unhesitatingly.
