Atma gyanasvarup hai,svayam gyan hi hai;vh gyan k atirikt anya kare bhi kya? Atma parabhav ka karta hai aisa manana (tatha kahana) so vyavahari jivo ka moh (agyan) hai.

Samaysaar-by Kundkund Acharya

Samaysaar - is one of the few works, of this greatest of ascetics, that have survived the passage of time. Samaysaar’s main purpose is to explain, logically, (1) the characteristics of self and the non-self; (2)method of experiencing the soul. Knowledge of Jainism is not complete without understanding the essence of Samaysaar. To give an idea of the intellect and piety of this great sage, KundKund Acharya, has not just been worshipped by ordinary monks and householders (including Shreemad Rajchandra), but also by other Acharyas over the last 2000 years. Commentaries on this great work have been written by Amrutchandra Acharya (~1000AD), Jaysen Acharya (1300AD), with Bhavaarth by Pandit Jaychandji. Pandit Banarasidasji has written Naatak Samaysaar too. Samaysaar
