Abstract

The book comprises tutorial lectures delivered on Jainism for common-folks (especially residents of North America) who are Jains but are not familiar with the history and tenets of Jainism. It will also be useful to those who are interested in the various aspects of Jainism in the various aspects of Jainism and its place in the history of Indian civilization. These lectures were delivered at a seminar on Jainism organized by the Jain Center of Central Ohio, Columbus on May 20-21, 1995, and were found thoroughly enjoyable, inspiring and educative by the young and elderly alike.
