The key to understanding Jain philosophy is the 'Karma Siddhanta'. It is certain that it is the basis of the entire philosophy and metaphysics. It reveals the mystery of the various states and forms of the soul and its transformations. Therefore, to understand Jain philosophy, it is essential to understand 'Karma Siddhanta'. The 'Karma Granth' written by Shrimad Devendrasuri is of particular importance among the major texts that discuss 'Karma Siddhanta'. They hold a very important place in Jain literature. Those who are curious about metaphysics also consider the 'Karma Granth' as scripture and study them daily. The Sanskrit commentaries on the 'Karma Granth' are very important. There have also been many Gujarati translations of them. The first commentary on the 'Karma Granth' in Hindi was presented by the learned scholar, the great sage, Pandit Sukhlalji. His style is comparative and evidence-based. Pandit Sukhlalji's commentary is now almost inaccessible. For some time, there has been inspiration from Ashukavi Ratna Gurudev Shri Marudhar Kesariji Maharaj to present a commentary on the 'Karma Granth' in a modern style. This compilation began under his inspiration and guidance. With the inspiration of Vidya Vinod Shri Sukhanmuniji, this work progressed rapidly. The support of Shri Devkumarji Jan was received and the work became ready to take shape in a short time. In this compilation work, the ancient text writers, commentators, commentators, and especially the works of Pandit Shri Sukhlalji have been helpful.
