The title of the book Adhyātma-Tattvā-loka' is itself suggestive of its intrinsic value and I must candidly confess my inability to give an adequate opinion on its merits. The work deals with the essential principles of Jain Religion, Philosophy and Ethics. The original Sanskrit shlokas, accompanied by easy and accurate translation into English and Gujarati, together with lucid and exhaustive explanatory notes, faithfully depict the great Truths offered by Jainism for the Redemption of Mankind. Adhyātma, Vairāgya and Yoga form the subject matter of this book, and hence the Jains as well as non-Jains can derive much advantage from its perusal. Such a work will, indeed, help a great deal in reconciling the differences between Hinduism and Jainism,
