Guest guest Posted June 10, 2003 Report Share Posted June 10, 2003 Jai Jinendra As part of Mission*24L* Marathi language is now released. This contains 900+ pages of very selected and authentic material written / edited by the best Jain scholars covering basic concepts of Jainism, daily pooja, prayers, mantra, stotra etc. and more for serious learners. -- We have a team of 25+ prominent Jains in all walks of life trying to make this as most comprehensive source for Jainism in Marathi. In months to come this will grow to 50,000+ pages of selected Jain material covering wide range of topics. -- The instance of the oldest written Marathi script is at the feet of Bhagwan Bahubali at Shravanbelgol written in 9th century. It reads ' Chamunda raye karviyale' (Made by Chamundrai). Marathi is indeed a language created and enriched by Jains. It is originated from Prakrit and not Sanskrit as being (willfully) propagated nowadays. -- Jainism existed in this part of country even before Mahavir. Very old temples dedicated to Adinath, Parshwanath, Shantinath etc are scattered all over places. Several prominent Kings were Jains. -- Please stay tuned for more on Jainism in Marathi... -- Other languages....French German Italian Russian Spanish Tamil (The translation editing is on going process. These sites are updated daily) Please visit and inform your friends ...specially knowing these languages. Inform the media as well. We would welcome experts in various languages to do the final editing. ====================================================== Together, we will revolutionize the way Jainism is perceived globally. ====================================================== Thanks and Regards Vinod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
