Editorial The key to understanding Jain philosophy is the 'Karma Siddhanta'. It is certain that the foundation of the entire philosophy and knowledge is the soul and the discussion of the various states and forms of the soul, and the 'Karma Siddhanta' reveals the mystery of its transformations. Therefore, to understand Jain philosophy, 'Karma Siddhanta' is essential. The major texts that discuss 'Karma Siddhanta' include 'Shrimad Devendrasuri Rachit Karma'. These hold a special significance. They occupy a very important place in Jain literature. Those seeking knowledge consider Karma as a subject of daily study and self-study, like fire. The Sanskrit commentaries on Karma texts are very important. There are also many Gujarati translations of these. The first discussion of Karma texts in Hindi was presented by the wise and learned scholar, Mahakshak Pandit Sukhlalji. His comparison is both comparative and scholarly. Pandit Sukhlalji's essay is now almost inaccessible. For some time, there has been inspiration from Ashukavi Ratna Gurudevshri Marudharakesariji Maharaj to present a modern discussion of Karma texts. This editing began with his inspiration and guidance. With the inspiration of Vidya Vinod Shri Sumuniji, this work progressed rapidly. With the help of Shri Devkumarji Jain, the work became ready to take shape in a short time. This editing work has received the support of ancient text writers, commentators, discussants, and especially the works of Pandit Sukhlalji.
