________________ Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra www.kobatirth.org Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir PREFACE “ Sarala” as the name suggests, is a very lucid commentary on that highly scholastic masterpiece “ Jin Stuti Chaturvinsatika ", the prayers of twenty four Tirthankars composed by that learned author Sobhan. Gujarat is well familiar with the name of Budhisagarsuriji, the undaunted spiritual preceptor of Jains. This book Sarala' is the creation of his disciple, the late Ajitsagarsuriji, who took great interest in Jain poetical and research works as evidenced by the present-writing and several other books written by him. Unfortunate as it was, Ajitsagarsuriji did not survive to see his own publication and so Hamendrasagarmuni, the social and loving disciple of the latc Guru very willingly undertook the trouble of publishing it. The present Stuti, Originally written by the learned muni Sobhan is greatly appreciated even by the western philosophers. Dr. Hermann Jacobi, the renowned german philosopher, is certainly right when he says “ Beside these Sobhan-stutis, I do not know of any other work of the same author but these : hymos are sufficient to secure for him for ever the name of a great versifier."
