Between one full stop and the next sentence, a kingdom can be built. And yet one sentence follows another. My attempt has been to retain this relation between space and continuity.
This book, in its original form is a compilation of daily lectures delivered by His Holiness. Very often the people he addressed were rural folk or an assortment of people from various walks of life including some unlettered ones. In this series of lectures he explains the practical applicability of the metaphysical concept of Anekanta. It is my great fortune that I was assigned the task of translating them by Acharyashree himself.
My gratitude to Sadhvi Vishrut Vibha is not something that words can contain. I think she knows and I know what I feel. She has meticulously gone through numerous corrections and taken great pains with the manuscript to bring it to the shape it is in.
I am also grateful to Ms Shriti Nath for editing my work. Her unobtrusive pencil not only worked very hard in a very short time, it was also sensitively used.
