Services of Jainism
to
INDIA.
Jainism is a religion of varied and Multifarious activities. It held a very prominent position in the literary world of ancient India and has produced great geniuses in every branch of literature. The Jain scholars and philosophers have composed works so voluminous and learned on Philosophy, Hogic, Grammar, Mathematics, Prosody, Comparative Religion, History, Biography, Astronomy, Lexicography, Medicine and various other subjects too numerous to mention here, that they excite the wonder and admiration of even the Western civilized world. The famous and ancient libralies of Cambay, Jaisalmer, Patan and several other places and the private libraries of many Yatees and Sadhoos bear out fully the truth of my assertion. An idea of the value and importance of these works can be formed from
