Grantha Bhandar and Library

It is a repository of knowledge with a huge 4 collection of handwritten old manuscripts and Ta 26,000 published volumes on Jain, Bouddh and Vedic streams and other Indological literature in multi-disciplines and various languages (English, Hindi, Gujarati, Prakrit & Sanskrit). The Library also has the rare honour of being home to the invaluable Granth Bhandar which is the legacy of our Revered Acharya Shri Vijayanand Surishwar Ji (Shri Atmaram Ji) & Jainacharya Shri Vijay Vallabh Surishwar Ji, retrieved from Gujranwala (now in Pakistan) much after the partition of the country. Present Gachhadhipati Shantidoot Jainacharya Shrimad Vijay Nityanand Surishwar Ji Maharaj as a young saint had played a stellar role in getting the rare collection of hand written manuscripts, sizeable in number, some of which written in gold, shifted from Ahmedabad to this library subsequent to the deviokgaman of Panyas Shri Darshan Vijay Ji (disciple of learned Muniraj Shri Punya Vijay Ji). This priceless collection has been and is a prized possession of Atam Vallabh Samudaya. Recently a large compilation of ancient and historic granthas on Jainism have been received from "Jani Sheri Upashraya, Vadodra" where Guru Vallabh came in contact with Guru Atam.
