    Yes,please list all the study material related to both dialects of Prakrit.

    Here are Jain study materials on the two main Prakrit dialects (Ardhamagadhī and Shauraseni) that are featured on JainKnowledge.com. I’ve kept to resources available on that site and noted which dialect each item uses.

    • Kalpa Sūtra (Ardhamagadhī Prakrit)
    - A central Śvetāmbara text, traditionally studied during Paryuṣaṇa; contains Jina-charitra and monastic guidelines. The page explains what it is and its Prakrit language, with context suitable for beginners.
    • Antakrddasha Sūtra / Antagad Dasa (Ardhamagadhī Prakrit)
    - The 8th Anga in Śvetāmbara Jain literature; narratives of people who attain mokṣa in the same life. The site provides Q&A and explanations in Ardhamagadhī Prakrit.
    • Logassa / Chaturvimshati-stavan (Logassa Stotra) (Ardhamagadhī Prakrit)
    - A Prakrit stotra praising the 24 Tirthankaras; notes on tradition in Digambar/Shvetambar sanghs and learning approach. Full guidance and meaning are on the site.
    • Uvasaggaharam Stotra (often in Prakrit text form, Ardhamagadhī tradition)
    - A revered Prakrit-stotra seeking protection; the site includes a Prakrit presentation and explanations.
    • Arochana / Alochana Stutra (Alochana Stotra) — practical Prakrit text with structure and usage notes
    - The page presents the Stotra in Prakrit with sample verses and notes on practice.

    Notes and guidance

    • These items are primarily Ardhamagadhī Prakrit (the historical dialect for many Śvetāmbara texts). If you need Shauraseni Prakrit materials specifically, tell me which text or tradition you are studying and I’ll check for related JainKnowledge.com resources in Shauraseni or other Prakrit dialects.
    • dialect variants (Digambar vs. Śvetāmbara) can lead to slight text differences. The linked pages often note which tradition they align with; follow the version your guru/pathshala uses.

    If you want, I can format a compact study plan (with daily padas and pronunciation tips) based on these texts.
