About the Book:- Jaina sutras are explained in simple English and the interpretation does not lose its intended meaning, however, there slightly is what can be termed "transmission loss," because the experience remains restricted by English vocabulary, a language limitation. Or else the reading makes it sequential to follow and see it the light of the revealed reality to Jaina Ford Founders. This is a subset of the Sacred Books of the East Series which includes translations of all the most important works of the seven non-Christian religions which have exercised a profound influence on the civilizations of the continent of Asia. The works have been translated by leading authorities in their field. The first part contains The Akaranga Sutra and The Kalpa Sutra, and the second part contains The Uttaradhyayana Sutra and The Sutrakritanga Sutra. About the Author:-Friedrich Max Müller (1823 –1900) was a German-born philologist and Orientalist, who lived and studied in Britain for most of his life. He was one of the founders of the western academic disciplines of Indian studies and religious studies ('science of religion', German: Religionswissenschaft). Müller wrote both scholarly and popular works on the subject of Indology. The Sacred Books of the East, a 50-volume set of English translations, was prepared under his direction. Hermann Georg Jacobi (11 February 1850 – 19 October 1937) was an eminent German Indologist. He was educated in the gymnasium of Cologne and then went to the University of Berlin, where initially he studied mathematics, but later, probably under the influence of Albrecht Weber, switched to Sanskrit and comparative linguistics, which he studied under Weber and Johann Gildemeister. He obtained his doctorate from the University of Bonn. The subject of his thesis, written in 1872, He was the origin of the term "hora" in Indian astrology, was interested in Indian mathematics, astrology and the natural sciences, and using astronomical information available in the Vedas, he tried to establish the date of their composition. Like Alexander Cunningham before him he tried to systematise how, from the evidence available in inscriptions, a true local time could be arrived at.
