I have been involved in the translation of the **Shri Sutra Kritanga Sutra**. Working with a highly learned scholar has been a great learning experience. I have gained many new insights in terms of language style, presentation, etc., by being involved in the translation. This has also inspired me to humbly attempt to translate commentaries on some other **Agamas**. I believe this will provide me with a wonderful opportunity to refine my knowledge, contemplate, reflect, and practice, which is a blessing for a virtuous life. What greater benefit can a **nirgrantha muni** have than to dedicate his life to the eternal worship of **Shruta** and **Charitra**?
As Dr. Shastriji has stated in the preface, it is hoped that readers, students, and scholars will benefit from studying this translation along with the original text.
While translating the commentary on the **Agama**, utmost care has been taken to ensure that the sentiments of the **Agama** and the commentator are preserved. However, if any shortcomings remain due to my limited knowledge, I humbly request the readers to inform me of them with the witness of the infinite **Siddhas** so that corrections can be made.
