The remaining commentary, the last effort in Shruta Seva: Late Guruvar Ratanchand Mukhtar was already in old age, and his physical condition was also weak. However, even in the last two and a half years of his life, he was busy commenting on the scriptures. The editing work of Karmakanda (commentator Prof. Shradimatiji) was completed by you in 1678 in Anandpur Kalu, sitting with the Sangha for 10-12 hours daily for 28 days. In the middle, on 9.6.78, you wrote a letter to me, "I am taking a risk and working so hard that the work of Karmakanda is completed before I leave. If I have any life left, then I will also do the work of Labdhisara and Jivakanda."
On 13.2.70, you wrote from Saharanpur - "My health is improving compared to before, but my mind and heart are still not able to function fully. After an hour, my mind gets tired and I start getting a headache. Blood circulation in the body is decreasing. Doctors say to take complete rest, but I can't do that. I am checking the press copy of Karmakanda, giving evidence of mistakes etc. in between. The work has to be done, my Jinvani will protect me. I am not worried about that, the success of life is in Shruta Seva." You wrote the same thing again on 31.3.76.
On 26.10.79, while picking me up, you wrote - "Now there is hope that you will uplift the scriptures of Karananuyoga. My time is coming to an end. The fruit of knowledge is restraint, which I have not attained. I have started writing a commentary on Jivakanda based on the Dhaval scripture. If it cannot be completed, you will have to complete it. Now I don't have the strength to work for 5-6 hours. After my body is disposed of, my Gommatasara Jivakanda and Panchasangraha will be sent to you by Shri Vinodkumarji. May the outcome be good in the end, this is my prayer to Veer Prabhu."
On 3.11.80, your letter came - "The commentary on the 651st verse of Jivakanda is being written. 86-87 verses are left. Due to my wife's respiratory illness, her knees, legs and hands have stopped working properly. She has difficulty even kneading dough. Her one eye is also working. Now the day is coming when she will not even be able to cook food. I want you to write and send the commentary on Jivakanda - Ahar Margana, but whatever is written, it should be written based on the scriptures. The names and page numbers of other scriptures should also be written along with it."
1 Note: - This was my test. I thought it was right to hand it over. So it is right.
After the test, I was given the task of the remaining commentary.
