these fachas are different personages. Commenting on 10th सूत्र of the first अध्याय viz ताप्रमाणे-this सिद्धसेन says that आचार्थ jagaarscore. This is very significant. This is great logician fagna fealet is variously known as TT, AETAâ, ac PETTIHIO.
The whole theory becomes quite clear in view of the above propositions. I take it that further correspondence in the matter of the date of Haribhadra now necessarily termi. nates. If any more questions are likely to arise on your fur. ther researches I will be very glad to see their applicability.
With regard to the present condition of the Jains and their history I should like to let you know that I am and will be always ready to give you any information you desire to have from this side according as it lies in my power to do the same,
I think a regular history oi Jainism-of its authors and literature is absolutely necessary. I desire to undertake the task. I will be highly thankful to you if you suggest the names of the materials and their relative value from an his. torical standpoint. At the same time I will occasionally trouble you for imformation and correction. I intend to un. dertake it after March next after my examination.
A book containing the general learning on the principles of Jainism is also necessary. Would you undertake the task ? I hope you will ask Dr. Suali to return the Mss. of gaat
19 of Haribhadra if he has done with it. It was lent by Muni Anand Sagarji.
Wishing you good health.
With regards, Yours Sincerely. M. G. KAPADIA.
