From the Publisher's Desk
The magic of Arham Pregnancy is brought to us by Upadhyaya Praveen Rishiji - a Jain monk with a path breaking vision. Those of us who have had the joyous experience of listening to his powerful discourses indeed feel blessed. He has enriched our souls by teaching us spiritual practices for the myriad aspects of our lives. One of these is Arham Pregnancy, a sadhana to transform parenthood into a divine experience.
The process of this experiment has been going on for fifteen years now. Its results have now reached a zenith. In the future, it will reach greater heights of success, that is indubitable. This book has been created to make this sadhana available for one and
all.
The Jaina religion which has been propounded by the twenty-four Tirthankaras is being nurtured and spread by our Gurus with great faith and devotion. This book is an important step in that direction. From the discourses given by Gurudev Praveen Rishiji in various camps, many rare gems have been strung together to create this book. We are indeed indebted to him.
We also appreciate the manner in which Dr Pratibha Jain has undertaken the task of writing the original Hindi book "Arham Garbhasadhana" and now its English translation with dedication and enthusiasm along with her team.
The Hindi and the English books have been published under the auspices of Anand Tirth Foundation. We are hopeful that this book helps all readers far and wide. With the blessings of Gurudev, may the seekers progress in their sadhana! With these good wishes,
Ashok Galada - Trustee, Anand Tirth Foundation, Chennai
