The manuscripts which have been brought within the purview of this volume cover Sanskrit and Prakrit manuscripts (Accn No. 3507 5426) deposited in the Chittorgarh branch. Number of entries thus covered comes to 1495. We are extremely grateful to Sarvashri Bansilal Dadhich, Balkrishna Yati, Kanti Sagar Muni and B. R. Chowdhary for having donated these manuscripts in larger interest.
The oldest dated work (A.D 1350) is a commentary on the "Navapada Prakarana" of Devagupta Süri. Important manuscripts have been singled out by the letter "I" put after the serial numbers. Still, some temptation to name a few here only cannot be resisted.
Besides their textual charm the "Adhyatma dvācatvārimśikā" of Siva Candra (3695), the "Rṣimandala-prakaraṇa" (4675), the "Gautama pṛccha-prakaraṇa" (4733) and the "Raghuvamsa" (3707) happen to be the autograph copies by the authors or the commentators. The last named contains autograph of Jina Candra Suri (A.D. 1623) who was patronised by the Emperor Akbar. The "Mahārāvala Mūla raja Yasovarṇana" (3916) is a new work, while the Tattva Cintamani Prakāśa" (3796), the "Vicara saçtrimśika" (3887), the "Amarakośa tika" (4677) by Paramananda Maithila are also rare in their own way.
The Catalogue has been prepared by Dr. D. B, Kshirsagar with due devotion and hard labour. Km. Shashi Sharma and Shri B.K. Singh have prepared the indices, Shri G. B. Dadhich has helped considerably in proof reading.
Lastly, Messrs Sadhana Press; Himalaya Printers and Pankaj Printers remain to be thanked.
