________________ Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra www.kobatirth.org Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir My grateful thanks to my friend Raoul Goff whose idea this book was, and who commissioned me to write it. The paintings of the brilliant artist B. G Sharma were its seed and bring it to life. To my managing editors, Lisa Fitzpatrick who patiently urged me on and Elizabeth Raphael who oversaw the final stages and brought together the loose ends, many thanks. The design team, Ian Szymkowiak and Alan Hebel of Alian Design, did a superb job. My proofreaders Paul McFarland and Michael Ashby did excellent work. My personal thanks are due to the Jain scholar Vinod Kapashi who exemplified for me the particularly lain qualities of forbearance and peacefulness, advised me and loaned me books from his personal library, particularly the life of Tirthankara Mahavira written by Muni Yashovijay and published by Jain Sanskruti Kendra in Bombay 1993. Vinod contributed a preface without which this book would have been incomplete. I am also grateful to Nima Suchak who worked hard at short notice to polish up my text.
