I found it very interesting and informative. In fact, I believe, I am not exaggerating if I say that the publication of this Journal is an event in the history of Jain publication.

Verses by Cidananda give much for reflection masterful translation. Also, the coloured painting 'Restoration of Kalinga Jina' is my first viewing of contemporary Jaina art... much appreciated.

The painting 'Candana giving alms to Lord Mahavira' is appealing as well as beautiful. The historic story of Candana would have remained poorer if it was not so clearly depicted in the picture. The Atomic Theory of the Jainas gleaned from Dr. P. C. Ray's Hindu Chemistry is revealing. When there was no scientific research worth the name in the West, it is heartening to know that the Jaina savants had made such a startling contribution to the field of atomic research. We knew nothing about the historic activities of Virchand Gandhi, the great contemporary of the illustrious Swami Vivekananda.
