________________ The Divine Touch of a Pre-eminent Personality 189 books and other writings. I found these people frank, relatively free from passions and willing to adopt good virtues. Based on this observation, I can confidently say that Shrimad Rajchandra's teachings were universal. - Shri Charitravijayaji Maharaj The Birth Centenary of Shrimad Rajchandra, V.S. 1966, Mumbai Unparalleled Devotion and an Equanimous Vision The divine person who managed to reignite the passion for the eternal religion in this dark time cycle and the one who attained such a high state of spirituality that he managed to reduce the cycle of infinite birth and rebirth to just one, is surely worthy of repeated reverence. I can say with conviction that in Gujarat the one soul who has been of utmost benefit to seekers is that of Shrimad Rajchandra. By writing the 'Atmasiddhi' scripture in the Gujarati language, he has extended the grace of Jainism. I have not come across any soul as great as him in recent times. In each of his words, there lies a deep-rooted esoteric essence. If one desires to understand fully the greatness and sublimity of the life of Shrimad Rajchandra one has to rise above dogmas and sectarianism and then one should evaluate his life objectively. Deep spiritual devotion is embedded in his writings. - Shri Kanji Swami An eminent Jain monk
