ledge. Conation is merely an activity of the consciousness which is a necessary preliminary of knowledge, but cannot be defined. Webster's Dictionary meaning No. 2 suggested to me this use of conation. Kindly consider it and consult Prof. A. Chakravarti also. When we see that the something running in the street is an animal or not, a man or a cart, we have knowledge i.e., Iha and Avyaya. This is sensitive knowledge or Matijnana. It is not Darsana. Darsana is only conating that there is something present to the sense of seeing not even running in the street.
Kindly give my name and on my behalf request Mahamahopadyaya Pandit Ganganath Jha, M.A., etc., Benares. I feel sure he will write something; ask also Dr. A. V. Sukhtankar Ph. D., Director of Education, Indore.
I am happy you are doing such excellent work in the south.
Ever Yours, J. L. JAINI.

My Dear Mallinath,
From 1904, to date there are lots of notes, articles on literary, religious and political matters which I have written. Most of the books etc., in which they have appeared are with me. Do you think it is worth while to collect and publish them in one volume? Can you do the work? Size may be the size of Sacred Books of the Jainas; paper the same quality. The volume will be roughly about 500 pages. What will be the cost for 1,000 copies? It is purely English printing.
My health, though better, is still very poor. My best love to you and all there.
Yours affectionately, J. L. JAINI.

My Dear Mallinath,
