INTRODUCTION
31 me in reading the proofs with me, and Shri V. G. Desai, B. A., Kolhapur, gave me some suggestions on doubtful readings and assisted me in preparing the Indices and Errata. My thanks to both of them.
I record my sincere gratitude to Smt. Rama Jain and to Shriman Sahu Shanti Prasadaji under whose patronage the Māņikachandra D. J. Granthamālā is progressing. It has brought to light many rare works for the first time; and this work too is included in the same Series. I offer my thanks to Shri L. C. Jain who is enthusiastically implementing the publication programme of the Bharatīya Jñānapītha.
