Jethalal S. Zaveri
Prof. Muni Mahendra Kumar
Jainism is seasoned with a mature tradition of metaphysics and spirituality. The name of Acharya Kundakunda shines like a resplendent constellation in the sky of this rich tradition. He was an author of many treatises, one of which is SAMAYASĀRA, which is the most outstanding one in the field of spirituality. It is replete with many mystical ideas and many thoughts worth contemplation.
Muni Mahendra Kumar ji is a son of Jethalal bhai in worldly relation and evidently Jethalal bhai is his father in worldly relation. Both of them are rich in scientific outlook. Moreover, they are well versed in science of spirituality as well as metaphysics. They have presented in English the mysteries of Samayasāra through scientific approach. It is a matter of fate that this is a posthumous publication of Jethalal bhai. Muni Mahendra Kumarj i is a witness to the accomplishment of this work.
It is expected, rather anticipated, that he would continue to present a harmonious study of both - spirituality and science—in the quest of truth.
