The Self Realization
commentary on the twenty four prayers of Sri Anandaghanaji. His reflections on the first two of these twenty four prayers are worthy of deep study and emulation for any one who wants to complete the commentary. He has brought out in his reflections all the spiritual associations of Sri Anandaghanaji, in a lucid and inimitable style.
On one of the couplets of the sixth out of the eight perspectives composed by Sri Yashovijayaji, Srimad has commented so beautifully well in his three letters nos. 393, 394 and 395 printed in 'Srimad Rajachandra'. He prepared a Gujarati equivalent translation of the first one hundred verses of Atmanushasana.' Besides, he wrote on the Anitya and Asharana Bhavana and a little on Samsara Bhavana out of the twelve Bhavanas or spiritual sentiments from Sri Ratnakarananda Shravakachara..
Srimad is the only author who has prepared a complete translation of the Panchastikaya, a work of the celebrated Sri Kundakundacharya. In appreciation of this great work, the Panchastikaya, Srimad writes to Sri Dharasibhai -
"It is rare and subtle to obtain the contact with the spiritual self. The aim of the discourse is to obtain this difficult objective. The study of this work will develop in a person pure meditation which will lead to absolute knowledge of the absolute reality, the self, the Atman. The contact with this self results from the reduction and destruction of perceptual delusions, from the indifference to the sense-pleasures, from a single minded devotion to the self realized living Guru. As, by these means, the self-control gets ascendant, the self begins to manifest its nature in its entirety. A right insight develops and in result, the self-knowledge."
