    Granth by Acharya Haribhadra Suri in gujarati

    6 months ago 97

    Acharya Haribhadra Suri was a very great Śvetāmbara Jain ācārya (around 8th century) and wrote many granths, mainly in Sanskrit and Prakrit. Today, many of his works are available in Gujarati translations / tika-bhashya and are studied widely.

    Here are some of the important granths of Haribhadra Suri which you will commonly find in Gujarati:

    1. યોગદૃષ્ટિસમુચ્ચય (Yogadṛṣṭisamuccaya)

    - Big granth on Jain yoga and spiritual progress (gunasthān, right faith, right knowledge, right conduct). - Gujarati: often printed with Gujarati translation and explanation.

    1. યોગબિંદુ (Yogabindu)

    - Small but deep text on the essence of yoga, internal purity, and right understanding. - Very popular in Gujarati with simple tika.

    1. યોગશતક (Yogaśataka)

    - 100 verses on yoga and sādhanā. - Also available with Gujarati meaning for beginners.

    1. ષડ્દર્શનસમુચ્ચય (Ṣaḍdarśanasamuccaya)

    - Comparative study of six major Indian darśans (philosophical systems) from a Jain viewpoint. - In Gujarati often called “છ દરશન સમુચ્ચય”, with explanation how Jain view is different.

    1. અનેકાંતજયપતાકા (Anekāntajayapatākā)

    - Granth explaining anekāntvād (doctrine of non-one-sidedness). - In Gujarati available as “અનેકાંત જયપતાકા”, showing how truth has many aspects.

    1. ધર્મબિંદુ (Dharmabindu)

    - Short text on what is real dharma in Jain sense (samayik, self-control, internal purity). - Printed with simple Gujarati arth for daily study.

    1. લઘુત્રયી (Laghutrayī) – a group of three small texts

    - Often includes short works like Dharmabindu, Yogabindu, etc. - Commonly available as one small Gujarati book for adhyayan.

    1. લોકતત્ત્વનિર્ણય (Lokatattvanirṇaya)

    - Explains Jain view of the universe and tattvas (soul, karma, etc.). - There are Gujarati editions with tika.

    1. સમરાઈચ્ચકથા / સમરાદિત્યકથા (Samarāiccakahā / Samarādityakathā)

    - A narrative work (kathā) teaching Jain values through story form. - Available in Gujarati kathā-style language, easy to read.

    1. ઉપદેશપ્રકરણ વગેરે (Upadeśaprakaraṇa, etc.)

    - Various short upadeś (instructional) texts on right conduct and spiritual life, many rendered into Gujarati.

    Important notes:

    • Mool granths of Haribhadra Suri are mainly in Sanskrit / Prakrit, but
    Gujarati translations, teeka, and “arth” books are easily available in Jain book stores and Jain pathshalās.
    • He is a Śvetāmbara ācārya, so these granths are especially central in Śvetāmbara tradition, though many ideas are respected by Digambar scholars too.
    • Different Gujarati editions may have slightly different titles or combined collections, but the main granths listed above are the core ones usually studied.

    If you tell me which level you want (very simple Gujarati, or more shāstrīya), I can suggest which 2–3 of these are best to start reading and give a very simple Gujarati summary of one granth’s contents.
