distinction in worldly pursuit in terms of education and position, he is a fine scholar of the Jaina Scripture. With his deep knowledge of the Jaina Doctrine, he has very considerably vanquished wrong belief, nescience, and passions like attachment and aversion. Rid of these faults, his soul is largely shielded from fresh karmic bondage and is thus regaining its pristine own-nature, by the day. Proficient in both languages, the Sanskrit as well as the English, he proofread the present work with devotion and dedication. Reading the proofs meticulously and with deep concentration, he highlighted major flaws, including typos, infelicities, inaccuracies and incompleteness, attributable to my negligence, ignorance and inadequacy. If this work is more or less free from errors, the credit must go to Dr. Devakumar. My thanks to Dr. Devakumar also for writing the research-based and scholarly Foreword for the book; his informative Foreword has certainly added to the glory of the publication.
The process of working on this profound Scripture - Niyamasāra - has been most rewarding. It has firmed up my belief in the sublime Jaina Doctrine. It has filtered out many imperfections of doubt (samsaya), delusion (vimoha or anadhyavasāya), and error (vibhrama or viparyaya) from my knowledge. With a sense of fulfilment, I present this treatise in the hands of the potential (bhavya) readers aspiring to tread the path to liberation.
