________________ 194 The Divine Touch of a Pre-eminent Personality An Exemplary Personality In the context of whatever small position I hold in the public life of Gujarat, I am tempted to say that if the book entitled 'Shrimad Rajchandra' is regarded and accepted as an ideal one, its student would certainly be greatly benefitted in the course of his life. It represents a flowing stream of philosophy and spirituality. It does not criticize or condemn any religion because it contains great depths of spirituality in it. I recommended that everyone should read it and contemplate its contents. - Acharya Shri Anandshankar Bapubhai Dhruv An eminent religious thinker of the Pandit age and a former Principal of Kashi Vishwanath Vidyapeeth, Varanasi Chairperson - Shrimad Rajchandra's Birth Anniversary V.S. 1973, Wadhwan Camp A Born Ascetic I have the courage and conviction to believe that Shrimad Rajchandra was a born ascetic. - Prof. Balvantrai K. Thakore An eminent Poet and a prominent critic Kartik Purnima, V.S. 1966, Mumbai
