Kshullak Ganeshprasad Varni (Hindi:पूज्य 105 श्री गणेश प्रसाद वर्णी, Gujarati: શ્રી ૧૦૫ ક્ષુલ્લક ગણેશપ્રસાદ વર્ણી Kannada:ಶ್ರೀ ೧೦೫ ಕ್ಷುಲ್ಲಕ ಗಣೆಶಪ್ರಸಾದ ವರ್ಣೀ; 29 September, 1874 – 5 September 1961) was one of the foundational figures[3] of the modern Indian Digambara intellectual tradition during the early 20th century.[4] He was the founder of several schools and institutions of advanced learning including Syadvad Mahavidyalaya at Varanasi in 1905,[5] Varanasi and Satark-Sudhataringini Digamber Jain Pathshala,[6] now Ganesh Digamber Jain Sanskrit Vidyalaya at Sagar.
Many of the Jain scholars today are products of the institutions found by Ganeshprasad Varni. Sahajananda Varni was one of his disciples.[7] While Jinendra Varni never heard him speaking, he was deeply influenced by him[8] and had compiled a volume "Varni Darshan" to commemorate Ganeshprasad Varni's birth centenary in 1975.
