Answer

Agar aap “Ananupurvi” ke purane Jain concept / shastriya prayog ki baat kar rahe hain, to uska ek hi modern writer nahi mana jata. Ye Jain Agam-parampara ka bahut purana vishay hai. Anuyogadwar Sutra me ananupurvi ka ullekh milta hai, aur us page par Original Sutra Author: N/A diya gaya hai. ( jainqq.org)

Explanation

Jo pustak “Navkar Mantrani Anupurvi ane Ananupurvi” hai, uski Jain Quantum catalog entry me Author(s): Ramanlal C Shah diya gaya hai. Lekin usi text me spasht likha hai ki Acharya Shri Jinkirtisuri ne Vikram Samvat 1497 me apni rachna “Shri Panchparameshthinamaskarmahasotra” me anupurvi-ananupurvi ka ganit aur vistar se varnan kiya tha. Isse lagta hai ki vishay bahut purana hai, aur Ramanlal Shah ne baad ki edition/compiled form me kaam kiya hoga. ( jainqq.org)

Spiritual Understanding

Jain Dharma me anupurvi / ananupurvi ka prayog sirf kitab ka title nahi, balki Navkar Mantra ke dhyan aur क्रम-bhavana se juda hua hai. Isliye iski jadें bahut purani shastriya parampara me hain, na ki kisi ek naye lekhak ki rachna me. ( jainqq.org)

Takeaway

Short answer:

• Concept purana hai.
• Jinkirtisuri ka naam purani Jain rachna ke sandarbh me aata hai.
• Ramanlal C Shah catalog me author ke roop me listed hain for that book, but vishay ka mool bahut prachin hai. ( jainqq.org)
