General Note:
"Literary Heritage of the Aniconic Jaina Tradition" collects, transliterates and publishes important, yet unstudied manuscripts pertaining to the history, doctrine and religious culture of the Lonkagaccha Jaina traditions in India. A comprehensive survey of the heritage of this historically influential tradition is an urgent, yet to be accomplished task. The Lonkagaccha is an aniconic religious tradition that emerged and flourished in the 15th and 16th centuries. It had a significant impact on the religious and social history of Jainism, but declined from the 18th century onward. Today it is on the verge of extinction, while the aniconic Sthanakavasi and Terapanth traditions, which branched off the Lonkagaccha lineages in the 17th and 18th centuries, continue to thrive.
General Note:
Loṅkāgaccha is sometimes transliterated as Luṅkāgaccha; it is also known as the Lumpaka sect

Bendall read “Vīratara-gaccha” as “Kharatara-gaccha”: “Lumpāka-mata-kuṭṭana is the subscription of a short work (of Lumpāka- 21 leaves). Outside is written in a much later hand 'Lokāyata-kuṭṭana.' The Lumpāka mata was a school founded in Vikr. Saṃvat 1508 (A.D. 1461). See Dr Klatt in Ind. Antiq. XI. 25G (September 1882). The treatise is in the main a compilation from the Siddhānta or canon of the Çvetāmbaras and begins नत्वा श्रुतज्ञानमनंतभेदं | पारंगतं चेतसि सन्निधाय । सिद्धांत वाक्यानि करोमि सम्यक् | Its compilers belonged to the Kharatara-gaccha and wrote the work in Saṃvat 1687” (Bendall 1886: 63) -- Ref: Bendall, Cecil, 1856–1906 A journey of literary and archaeological research in Nepal and northern India, during the winter of 1884–5.
