The Kalpasutra of Bhadrabahu (1879)

The Kalpasutra of Bhadrabahu is a book written by Hermann Jacobi in 1879. It is a translation of the ancient Jain text known as the Kalpasutra, which is a collection of stories and teachings about the life of the Jain prophet Mahavira and the early history of the Jain religion. The text is divided into two parts: the first part covers the life of Mahavira, while the second part describes the rules and rituals of the Jain monastic community. The book also includes a detailed introduction by Jacobi, which provides background information on the Jain religion and its history. Overall, The Kalpasutra of Bhadrabahu is an important resource for scholars and students of Jainism, as well as anyone interested in the history of religion in India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
