important themes easily understandable by giving suitable illustrations. I hope that these illustrations will be found very useful by lay readers as well as those who do regular self-study.
I would like to add here that Bhagavati Sutra is a voluminous compendium of knowledge. Earnest readers should study it seriously. If they find some topic complex even after studying the elaborations they should try to understand it properly with the able help of scholarly ascetics.
I have included maximum elaborations from my earlier commentary on Bhagavati Sutra. The Hindi commentary by Pandit Shri Ghevar Chand ji has also been very useful in giving final shape to this work. A glossary of important words with English meanings has been included as appendix. I believe that this will be very useful for the modern youth of this generation.
My preface would not be complete without the pious remembrance of my revered teacher Uttar Bharatiya Pravartak Gurudev Bhandari Shri Padmachandra ji M. S. who always inspired me to work in service of the Shrut (Agams). My humble homage to him. It is my hope and belief that this Illustrated Bhagavati Sutra with its unique innovative style will prove to be useful for one and all.
As always, scholarly editors like my disciple Shri Varun Muni, Shri Sanjay Surana son of Late Shrichand Surana 'Saras', and Shri Surendra Bothara (English translator) have extended earnest cooperation to this project. In the same way generous devotees have extended their cooperation and contributions to this pious project of publishing Illustrated Agams. They all deserve thanks and commendations.
