humble and save in mutual intercourse, having sanguine and sanemind with panoramic stretchability of the Vision, altruistic in outlook who so ever comes to lay his needs before this benovelent healer himself becomes the source of all Goodness and Good. A true Jainistic spirit pervades his mind and soul. Love, kindness, friendliness, delight, sympathy, self-endurance, compassion with an attitude of toleration and indifference are the cardinal tenets of his soul. Being a never centre of social welfare-Unity of the Sangha is his breath, uplift of masses is his adherent devotion, unhampering growth of the community is his rock like firm determination.
Acharya Anand Rishi -a Reformer Saint is an emancipator of troubled humanity whose great teachings are the panacea for the ills and grievances of the modern Wastelanders. It is true that he is born to redeem the world. He is of our life's anchor help us in crossing the tumultuous sea of our life. We now all seek shelter at thy feet dedicating our minds and souls. All troubles are ended by the mere mention of thine holy name. May the whole Sthanakvasi Jain Sraman Sangha illuminate the horizon of SPIRIT with its pride and prosperity, unity and strength, purity and peace under the holy banner of his inspiring and accomplishing spiritual headship. A commemoration Volume in honour of Rey. Acharya is a very nice idea and it will go a long way to encourage such spiritual luminaries in the pursuits of the establishment or re-establishment of fundamental values of the life such as Truth, Peace and Non-Violence. The felicitations to be offered to the scholar Rishi and the Commemoration volume to be offered to him on the auspicious occassion of his Gracious 75th Birth day in appreciation of his profound intellectual knowledge and priceless services. May he win many more laurels and distinctions for his meritorious services and be with us for many a year for guiding and stimulating the seekers after Truth and Non-Violence.
Acharya Anand Rishi is a palpably historical personality whose words ring so familiar today will also sound in the ears and hearts of millions of humble folk after the lapse of centuries. It is my ardent prayer that his glorious message of Truth, Non-Violence, peace, good-will and fraternity among mankind may take firm roots in and reign over human hearts and minds all over the globe for ages to come.
