________________ A Hand Book of Jainology “Though the Jain Dharma had to face hateful opposition and countless impediments it has always and at all places, been victorious. Arhan is none other than Lord Parameshwar". A description of Lord Arhan is discernible even in the Vedas. Swami Virupaksha Professor, Sanskrit College, Indore The Jain Dharma is so ancient that its origin and early history cannot be easily discovered. Kannulal Jodhpuri "I once saw two books in the hands of a Jain disciple. When I read them I found that they were true and impartial; and that I had entered a new realm of thought. I found that what I had studied from my boyhood and the Vedic flag which I kept flaunting were unreal and untrue. If there is a religion which įs ancient, true and supremely sound, it is the Jain Dharma. Yogi Jivanand Paramhamsa Only the Tirthankars, the founders and promoters of the Jain Dharma have conferred upon us the extraordinary gift of absolute non-violence. • Dr. Radhavinod Pal The modern research in history has proved that the Jain Dharma existed even before Brahminism or the Hindu Dharma. Justice Rangnekar The fact that the Jain Dharma is an ancient religion has been proved by countless rock-edicts, caves, fossils and the excavations at Mohenjodaro. The Jain Dharma has been in vogue from the time of creation. It is more ancient than the Vedanta Dharma.
