Though there is no paucity of epithets in the dictionary to give expression to the extra-ordinary personality and achievements of Her Holiness Shri Mrigavati Ji Maharaj yet the touching experiences of her nature and impressions beggar description.
More than two decades have elapsed when I got the opportunity to see and listen to Revered Mahattra Ji for the first time. Prior to this, she, with the farsighted and constructive co-operation of Seth Kasturbhai, had accomplished in 1960-62, the task of study of Jain 'Agams' and Sanskrit and Prakrit literature. I listened to and conversed with her and realised that I was face to face with an embodiment of inspiration. The seemed to have imbibed the fundamental values of Indian intellect. Not only her learning but also her philosophy of life, her faith in man, her capacity to synthesise, and her will power, created celestial and glorious inspiration that was a tonic to spiritual courage and faith.
