As interest in Jain Philosophy grows in this country more of us are seeking written sources to explore. Recently we received a letter from Mr. Stewart asking for the following. He wished to know if there are English translations of the Jain Agamas and where he might obtain copies. He seemed especially interested in hard bound eiditions. He would be most interested in knowing if there is an edition published which contains simultaneously the original Prakrit and an English translation. Also he would like to know what is the best edition of the Agamas published in
Prakrit.

Please if it is possible, send me 10 Post Cards showing me these wonderful Temples. Yes, I am interested so much in the architecture of these temples! I would like to frame all these ten postcards too.
Kindest regards from a far away country.

I am doing some research into Jain practices for this age. My readings have led me to Jain Tantra. Living in the United States of America, it is hard to find material on this subject....
Your address is the only contact that I have with people who follow the faith.
