Jambuvijaya

Jambuvijaya (1923–2009), also known as Muni Jambuvijayji Maharajsaheb, was a monk belonging to the Tapa Gaccha order of Śvetāmbara sect of Jainism.

Muni Jambuvijay was a scholar who devoted his entire life to critically editing Jain scriptures.

[4] John E. Cort mentions the difficulties faced and the persistence shown by Muni Jambuvijay in ensuring that ancient manuscripts which were under lock and key were brought to light.

Many bhandaras like the one at Patan were unopened for decades or centuries and Muni Jambuvijay had to often use his mendicant charisma to convince the trustee to open up the libraries.

Early morning, he was travelling by foot along with other monks from Balotra to Jaisalmer when they were hit by a truck.
