Besides the Dravya-svabhāvaprakāśaka, the Alapa-paddhati and Naya-vivarana (extracted from the Tattvarthaśloka-vārttika of Vidyananda) are also added along with Hindi translation, in this edition. All this material has enriched this volume as a source book on Nayas, etc. We are very thankful to Pt. Kailashchandraji for his learned labours on this work.

Words are inadequate to express our sense of gratitude to Shri Sahu Shantiprasadaji and Shrimati Ramaji Jain for their patronage extended to such publications. Indologists have unreserved praise for their generosity in bringing out many a publication in Sanskrit, Prakrit, Kannada and Tamil, and thus enhancing the prestige of ancient Indian literature. Our thanks are due to Shri L. C. Jain'who is helping us in various ways in the publication of the Mürtidevi Granthamālā.
