I appreciate your repeated expression of readiness to help and shall not forget it. For the most part of my studies have taken me into other fields than Jainism. In recent years, I have published a translation of the Apadevī, a work of the Pūrva. Mimānsa, and cirtain studies on the Upanisads and on various other fields of Indian studies, but none on Jainism. My interest remains, however, and I am now giving a coures of Jaina Mahāyāstri in Yale University in which we are reading Jacobi's Ausgewahlte Erzahlungen in Maharastri.
With sincere regards, I am,

Hanoi, April 1st, 1921. Dear Sir,
I received your letter dated 30-7.1920 just before leaving France to Indo-China and thereafter I have been unable to find the leisure to answer to you. Pray, excuse me and accept my best thanks for the two volumes you have been so kind to send me.
I.could devote to them but a cursory reading, but they gave me a most favourable impression, and I heartily congratulate
you with the activities of your pupils. Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com
