Initially, it was planned to publish the scriptures in the order of *Acharanga* etc., but it was realized that the editing and translation of a vast *Agam* like *Bhagavati* would take a long time, and keeping the publication of other *Agams* on hold until then would also take more time. The objective of initiating the plan to impart theoretical knowledge to the readership would also be delayed, and the auspicious work should be completed as soon as possible. Therefore, it was decided that whatever scriptures are available should be published.
As the *Agam* texts were published, the readership also expanded, and these texts were also included in the curricula of many universities. Therefore, it was decided again that the fourth edition should be published when the first three editions become unavailable, so that all readers have access to the complete *Agambattisi* forever. This fourth edition is being published in accordance with this decision.
We are grateful to the many enlightened saints, scholars, and the community for their appreciation of the present publications, which has boosted our enthusiasm and provided support. We expect the readers to study the *Agam* literature and become collaborators in the propagation of *Jinavani*.
With this hope and belief,
