I also wanted to include 4-5 useful appendices, for examplealphabetical list of words, examples and incidents mentioned in the Vritti for further clarification, comparative tables of subjects repeated at different numerical placement (such as rivers, mountains, peaks etc. Jambudveep; kinds of atonement, description of self restraints etc.). But this had to be kept in abeyance due increased number of pages.

Shri Srichand Surana 'Saras' (Agra) has put in great labour editing of this work. In the English translation Shri Surendra Bothara (Jaipur) has tried to ensure that the original idea of the author of the Agam is presented in its untainted form. This is basically a lexicon. Therefore, to maintain its form each main word and other important terms have been given in Roman script along with its appropriate meaning in parenthesis in an effort to convey the basic idea. Sushravak Shri Rajkumar ji Jain (Delhi) has provided his selfless contribution by copy editing the English translation. They all deserve thanks.

The blessings of my revered Gurudev, Uttar Bharatiya Pravartak Bhandari Shri Padmachandra ji Maharaj, still remain my support. The strength of his inspiration and encouragement continues to push me ahead in this pious mission of service to the Shrut (the sermon of the Jina). It is natural that he surfaces in my memory on such occasions. He used to be very happy whenever a new Agam was edited and published. He was the first to read it and bless me with these words: "Continue your services to Jinavani. Spread Mahavir's message from house to house. This is my only wish."
Sushravak Shri Mahendra ji Jain of Ludhiana has given special contribution towards publication of this Agam in auspicious memory of his father Late Shri Trilokchand ji Jain 'Bhagat ji'. My special thanks to him.

The project of publication of illustrated Agams with English
translation is labourious as well as cost intensive. But with liberal contributions from many devotees and Agam lovers this mission is progressing and will continue to progress.
With this unwavering belief....
