• This translation of Yogashastra was seen, read and its usefulness was known in the Shri Rajendra Jain Brihad Gyana Bhandar of Ahor, and then the idea of republishing it was conceived. Currently, keeping in mind the desire to promote the second edition of Shri Padmasuri Shwarji, it is being published. Sariji has highlighted the importance of this book in the introduction of Yogashastra. It is sufficient, so I confirm it. This book will be published by Shri Guru Ramchandra Prakashan Samiti, Bhinmal and will be distributed free of cost for the benefit of the people. Therefore, the readers should benefit.

_ "Special Details" In the Gujarati translation of Yogashastra, in the explanation of Samayik, under the third light 82-83 verses, on page no. 210 of Hindi, after the explanation of the word Voshirami, the translator has given the following special explanation in the Gujarati translation:
While doing Samayik, the soul's sinful past cycle is abandoned and the new cycle of the soul, which is full of knowledge, vision and character, is born, so it can be said that the past cycle soul has been abandoned. Because cycles are different states of the soul that appear gradually, and the cycle is the basis of those states, the soul. Because these cycles and the cycle-maker are different, I am different from my soul. It is not false to say that I am newly born.
In Acharang Sutra it is said that Aayakhalu Samaiyan, that is, the soul is Samayik. The meaning is that just as Samayik is one cycle of the soul and the soul is somehow inseparable from its cycle, so the soul is called Samayik. Similarly, here, considering the difference of cycles, I am Voshiravam from my soul, what is this? The meaning is that I am Voshiravam from my sinful past cycle.
