she is in India to continue her work on Bhaskaranandi's commentary in the Department of Jainology and Prakrits, University of Mysore, Mysore. Miss Ohira had completed her work on Dhyanastava while she was in the States It is very kind of her to have given it for the publication to the Manikchandra Digambara Jaina Granthamālā, and thus enriched this series. We are very thankful to her.
We are grateful to Shriman Shanti Prasadaji Jain and to his enlightened wife Smt. Ramaji for so generously patronising this Granthamālā. It is both an opportunity and a challenge to all earnest workers in the field of Jaina literature. Many small and big works in Sanskrit, Prakrit and Apabhramśa still lie neglected in Jaina Bhandaras; and we earnestly appeal to our scholars to edit them and present them in a neat form this is a duty which we owe to our Acaryas who have left for us a great heritage in our literature.
