Oxford professor at Jain Research Center, Jaipur

Dr. Imre Bangha, professor of Hindi language in prestigious Oxford university visited Jain Research Center, Jaipur. Dr. Bangha is a Hungarian and well versed in several Indian languages including Hindi and Bengali. Presently he is studying Maru-Gurjar, a preform of Hindi language existed between 13th and 16th century.

It is worth knowing that large numbers of Jain texts are written in this language. Gautam Rasa by Vinayprabhu Upadhyay of Khartar Gachchh is the most popular among all Maru-Gurjar literature.

Dr. Bangha met Sri Surendra Bothra and Jyoti Kothari of Jain Research and Study Center, Jaipur and discussed Maru-Gurjar Jain literature. He will be visiting our library at Vichakshan Bhawan tomorrow.  Jain Research and Study Center, Jaipur has been attracting foreign and indigenous researchers, scholars and academicians for their studies and researches. The center is established under Jain University project of Sri Jain Shwetambar Khartar Gachchh Sangh, Jaipur. 


Jain philosophy is far ahead of modern physics
