Book Description
Excerpt from Gaina Sutras, Vol. 2 Ten years have elapsed since the first part of my translation of Gaina Sutras appeared. During that decennium many and very important additions to our knowledge of Gainism and its history have been made by a small number of excellent scholars. The text of the canonical books, together with good commentaries in Sanskrit and Guzerati. has been made accessible in fair editions published by native scholars in India. Critical editions of two of them have been published by Professors Leumann and Hoernle; and the latter scholar has added a careful translation and ample illustrations to his edition of the text. A general survey of the whole Gain a literature has been given by Professor Weber in Ins catalogue of the Berlin Manuscripts and in his learned treatise on the sacred literature of the Gainas. The development of Gaina learning and science has been studied by Professor Leumann. and some Gaina legends and their relations to those of the Brahmans and Buddhists have been investigated by the same scholar.

Book Description
Excerpt from Gaina Sutras, Vol. 1: The Akaranga Sutra, And, the Kalpa Sutra Have grown out of, or branched off from the other. This a priori opinion has prejudiced the discernment of many critics, and still does so. In the following pages I shall try to destroy this prejudice, and to vindicate that authority and credit of the sacred books of the Gainas to which they are entitled. We begin our discussion with an inquiry about Mahavira, the founder or, at least, the last prophet of the Gaina church. It will be seen that enough is known of him to invalidate the suspicion that he is a sort of mystical person, invented or set up by a younger sect some centuries after the pretended age of their assumed founder.

Excerpt from The Saddharma-Pundarika, or the Lotus of the True Law; Gaina Sutras, Vol. 1: The Akaranga Sutra; The Kalpa Sutra H1 is meaningless.
