Vidwan Dr. T. V. Satyanarayana richly deserves our appreciation for his endeavour to collate the manuscripts from Adyar Library, Chennai, and other libraries of our country. The Vice-Chancellor of Mysore University Prof. M. L. Madaiah, who has been the source of inspiration for bringing out the very rare works of Sanskrit, richly deserves our deep gratitude. Thanks are due to the Registrar Prof. V.G. Talvar, Deputy Registrar Sri Poorpadanda, our finance officer Sri Mahadevaswamy, Mr. Siddegowda Director, University Printing Press and other officials of the University who have extended their helping hand in the pursuit of academic activities of the Institute.
I acknowledge the sincere efforts of 'Samskrita Sahitya Sadana Printing Press' in bringing out this book attractively in time.
