of your wish to meet him. I myself shall arrive probably in the midst of November in Colombo and shall be in Bombay in December. I hope that I shall have the opportunity to see you in January in Shivpuri on my way to Calcutta.

Dear Acharyaji,
I have to thank you for your two letters dated October 26th and December 16th and I regret it very much that I was not able to visit you in Ajmer. Before returning to Germany on January 11th I had the opportunity to see the famous Mahavira Public Library in Delhi; which Babu Gulabchand Jain was kind enough to show me. During my 5 week's stay in India I have visited quite a number of Jaina temples and upashrayas in Delhi; Banares and other towns.
After I had left Koenigsberg because of the Russian invasion in 1944 and having stayed for 2 years in Baden-Baden as a private gentleman without salary I am since June 1946 Professor of Indology and Comparative Religion at the Unversity of Tubingen (in the republic of Wuthenberg, part of the German Federal Republic in the southern most part of the Western Zone). I deliver here lectures on the great religions Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com
