About the book
A worldly soul is associated with physical body, pleasure, pain, emotions, etc. All such associates change with time. In the scripture Samayasāra, Ācārya Kundakunda (127179 A.D.) very minutely and logically tries to show what the eternal soul is and what is not. For the bliss, peace, and happiness, he suggests to realize I-ness only with the Samayasāra. The literal meaning of the word 'Samayasāra' is 'soul in its essence'. Before the beginning of any auspicious work, Digamber Jains recite the name of Ācārya Kundakunda next only to that of Lord Mahāvīra and his chief disciple Gautama Gañadhara. The treatise Samayasāra is considered as the best work of Ācārya Kundakunda. This book presents the English translation and explaination of the first 144 stanzas of Samayasāra using modern and scientific examples.
