My dear Sir,
I received your kind letter dated 30th November and am very glad to learn that you are doing well. I have been busy with the introduction to my edition of the FASTEDamet in the Bibliotheca India, the text of which has now been printed off. My intention was to give a critical account of the life and work of Haribhadra, of his position in the development and history of the Svetambara section of the Jaina church. The first vol. ume of the book containing text and introduction will probably be issued in the course of this year. A second volume is plan. ned, which is to contain a full glossary of the text and an abstract of the grammer. Prof. Kirfel has promised to help me in 'this task and to carry it out in case I should not live to see it finished for in next month I shall complete my 75th year.
I have still two Mss. of the Tattwarthadigama Tika by Siddhasena with me which I shall send to your address tomo
rrow. They will probably go by the same mail. The seconed Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com
