From the Editor Jai Jinendra !
In this issue of Jain Digest an effort is made to give tribute to Virchand Raghavji Gandhi, a Jain scholar who represented Jainism at the first World Parliament of Religions in 1893 in Chicago. A barrister by trade, he worked to defend the rights of Jains, and wrote and lectured extensively on Jainism. This year we celebrate VRG's
150th birth anniversary and Acharya Tulsi's birth centenary. Acharya Tulsi, a prominent Jain religious leader, founder of the Anuvrata movement and the Jain Vishva Bharti Institute, Ladnun and the author of over one hundred books. We think of Acharya Sushil Muni, he departed from this world twenty years ago. He was the founder of the Jain International Mission, an honorary president of the World Conference of Religions for Peace, founder of the World Fellowship of Religions (1950), and a founding member of the Vishva Hindu Parishad (1964).
