She was the founder of an All-India Jain Women's Association, and its monthly organ the Mahiladarsha.
The Evil Karmas of the Jainas have not worked themselves out as yet, but are rather in the ascendant. Our best men and women are leaving us; and there are none to take up the places vacated by them. Devendra, Jagmander Lal, Maganben, have left us. The implicit faith and deep devotion of Devendra, the high soaring brilliant intellect of J. L.
