( you) Dr. Adinath Neminath Upadhya D. Litt. Shivaji University, Kolhapur.
I am in receipt of the copy of the 'Kriya-Kosa' so kindly sent by you. It is a remarkable source book which brings in one place so systematically, the references and extracts which shed abundent light on the usage of the term Kriya in Jainism. The Kosas that are being brought out by you will prove of substantial help to the future compilation of an encyclopaedia on Jainism. I shall eagerly look forth to the publication of your DHYAN KOSA.
With felicitations on your scholarly achievements. Dr. P. L. Vaidya, D. Litt. Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, Poona-4
I am very grateful to you for your sending me a copy of your Cyclopaedia of Kriya. I have read a few pages already and find it as useful as your Lesya Kosa. Please do bring out similar volumes on different topics of Jain Philosophy, Of course, this may not bring you any material wealth, but I am sure students of Jain Literature will surely bless you for having offered them a real help in their study.
Prof. Hiralal Rasikdas, Kapadiya, Surat, Bombay,
This work ( Kriya Kosa ) will be very useful to scholars interested in Jainology. The learned editors deserve hearty congratulations for having undertaken such a laborious and tedious task.
मिथ्यात्वीका आध्यात्मिक विकास पर अभिमत Mithyatvi Ka Adhyatmika Vikasa written by Sri Srichand Choraria, Jain Darsana Samiti 16C, Dover Lane, Calcutta-29. PP-24 and 360.
This is a philosophical treaties. It describes carefully the manifestation of the soul according to Jain tradition. It deals with the problem whether the mithyatva can have a manifestation and the author has proved that in a possible way.
The book is divided into nine chepters including conclusion. Each chapter has several sub sections, or rather points on which the author has discussed a lot, each section of each chapter is replete with ample quotations proving the conclusion of the author.
