Some Impressions
Vijaya Dharma Suri was not only an ideal Jain Sadhu but his was a personality of eminence and rare attractiveness. His was a great and liberal mind, which made him just in the appreciation of things good and noble in other sects and religions. His was a warm heart, which made him mild towards poor infatuated fellow-creatures, whom he loved as a father does his own erring children. His was a firm soul, which made him forbearing eren towards his adversaries. His was the quick intuition of a genius, who, ages before, knows the demands of coming generations and his was a sound common sense, which knows the needs and grievances of the present hour, and finds means to redress them. Renowned was he as a writer, a scholar an orator and a social reformer.
