Publisher's Note
Navatattvaprakarana is an important work of Jaina philosophical literature. It mainly deals with concept of Navatattvas (nine categories of truth), considered as a core of Jaina Philosophy. Besides, being short in size, it is equally important both, for an inquisitive and an ascetic. A number of translations of this text, particularly in Hindi and Gujarati have been broughtout, but no serious efforts were made for its English translation. Pārsvanatha Vidyapitha feels emense pleasure in bringing out this title, for the first time with Sanskrit cchāyā, Roman transliteration and English translation.
We are very thankful to Dr. Shriprakash Pandey, who has not only rendered this text into English but also managed it through the press.
Our thanks are also due to Sun Computer Softech and Vardhamana Mudranalaya for its beautiful composing and excellent printing respectively.
