[INDOLOGY] Location of the Āmera Śāstra Bhaṇḍāra?

[Dominik Wujastyk]

Dear colleagues,

In 1949, Kastūricanda Kāsalīvala (Kasturchand Kasliwala) published a
catalogue of MSS in the Amer Sastra Bhandar.  The catalogue is entry 00427
and 0891(1) in Biswas.  Where is this library now?

Biswas said,

0891 ... Amber [image: image.png]


Can anyone confirm that the collection is now in the temple in the town of Sri
Mahaviraji <https://maps.app.goo.gl/9A3BrMGucjMNtcxh7>?  This Jain Heritage
website
<https://www.jainheritagecentres.com/jainism-in-india/rajasthan/mozamabad/>,
which is more recent than Biswas, suggests the collection is now in
Mozamabad <https://maps.app.goo.gl/EEFqpYen9m7gnXKX7>, rather.

Best wishes,
Dominik
