The Original Work
Acarya Rajendrasuri’s ‘Abhidhana Rajendra Kosha’ deserves mention as the finest encyclopedic work on Jainism. Created as a result of the Herculean efforts of Acarya Rajendrasuri in 1960, it is a magnificent repository of citations sourced from the widest possible selection of Jain texts belonging to both, the Digambara as well as the Shvetambara traditions. It is a gigantic set of 7 volumes, each running into thousands of pages. It covers a substantial selection of Prakrit terms, each explained in Sanskrit using several citations in Prakrit and Sanskrit taken from various Jain texts. It is a phenomenal achievement and deserves great encomia. For generations of scholars, it remains the go-to encyclopedia on Jainism.
The Present Work
Unfortunately, the ‘Abhidhana Rajendra Kosha’ remains inaccessible to those who do not know Prakrit and Sanskrit. The present work is a faithful Hindi translation of the original work with the citations removed for reasons of brevity. The result is a compact, handy dictionary of 3 volumes, which gives the Sanskrit meaning and Hindi explanation of each Prakrit term.
The unique features of this dictionary are:
All words are arranged in Prakrit alphabetical order
The Prakrit term is followed by the Sanskrit term and Hindi explanation
Prakrit/Sanskrit synonyms are provided wherever possible
The Hindi explanation provides the literal meaning of the Prakrit word, a Hindi translation of its Prakrit and Sanskrit definitions, the etymological roots of the Prakrit word and an analysis of its meaning
Linguistic details such as gender, tense, verb/noun/adjective have been provided for each Prakrit term
In many cases, cross references to the original Abhidhana Rajendra Kosha have been provided
In some cases, references to citations from other Jain texts are provided
