( ye ) centre and heart of Jainism ; at the same time it is a most intricate and complex subject the study of which presents a great many difficulties and problems, not all of which have been solved so far. With erudition and acumon, you have furnished a most useful contribution and successfully advanced our knowledge."
Prof. Dr. K. L. Janert, Director, Institut fur Indologie Der Universitat Zu Koln .
"'I have received your book Lesya Kosa, I also owe you a valuable addition to my Library. It is always a matter of great satisfaction to me to see a scholar not recoil from the arduous task of compiling dictionaries, indexes etc.--even that great English Critic and Lexicographer, Dr. Samuel Johnson, called it drudgery some two hundred years ago. And it is of course only diligent collection and comparison of all relevent material that genuine advance in knowledge is based on. So we shall have to thank you for having made work easier for those who come after you.
Prof. Padmanath S. Jain, Dept. of Linguistics, The University of Michigan, U.S.A.
"Please forgive me for the delay in acknowledging the receipt of your excellent gift of the Lesya-kosa. This is an extraordinary work and you deserve our gratitude for publishing it. You have opened a new field of research and have established a new model for all future Jain studies. The subject is fascinating not only for its antiquity but also fo its value in the study of Indian Psychology."

After Lesya-Kosa I have received your Kriya Kosa, Trhanks. I have heard the Editorial, Forward, Preface in full and certain portions thereafter. I am surprised to find such dilligence, such concentration and such devotion to learning. Particularly so because such person is rarely found in business community who dedicates himself to learning like a BRAHMIN.
