The 1917 translation by Champat Rai Jain is the earliest recorded English translation of Samantabhadra's Ratnakaranda-Sravakachara. Extensive searches in scholarly catalogs and bibliographies of Jain literature (such as Williams' 'Jaina Yoga' and the India Office Library catalogues) do not indicate any complete English translation prior to this date. Later translations, such as those by T.K. Tukol (1976), post-date this edition.
