Stories are a form of literature which children, youth and the elderly all feel interested in. Stories impart knowledge, inspiration and creativity. Many interesting and inspiring stories are available in the Jain Aagams and in their commentaries. Because these stories are in Sanskrit and Prakrit, they do not find a wide readership.
Sadhvi Vishrut Vibhaji has translated many of these stories in English. This makes it available to the English speaking world and especially to Indian emigrants and people in India who are more familiar with the English language. I hope these stories will be a source of spiritual illumination for their readers.
