JAIN * Pages: xxx + 466 * Size: 16 x 23 cm ISBN 978-81-932726-2-6 Rs. 750/Acarya Umasvami's (circa 1st century CE) Tattvarthasutra, also known as Moksasastra, is the most widely read Jaina Scripture. It expounds the Jaina Doctrine, the nature of the Reality, in form of aphorisms (sutra), in Sanskrit. Brief and to-thepoint, Tattvarthasutra delineates beautifully the essentials of all objects-ofknowledge (jneya). Sarvarthasiddhi by Acarya Pujyapada (circa 5th century CE) is the first and foremost extant commentary on Tattvarthasutra. Sarvarthasiddhi is an exposition of the Reality - the true nature of substances, soul and non-soul - the knowledge of which equips one to tread the path to liberation, as expounded in Tattvarthasutra. There is beginningless intermingling of the soul (jiva) and the nonsoul (ajiva) karmic matter. Our activities (yoga) are responsible for the influx (asrava) of the karmic matter into the soul. Actuated by passions (kasaya) the soul takes in the particles of karmic matter; this is bondage (bandha). Obstructing fresh inflow of the karmic matter into the soul - samvara - and its subsequent separation from the soul - nirjara - are two important steps in attaining the infallible, utterly pristine, senseindependent and infinitely blissful state of the soul, called liberation (moksa). ........................ 356
