He believes the future of mankind depends essentially upon the spiritual and cultural uplift of our women folk and so prescribes a strictly reverential and fostering attitude towards them. Similarly he would not confine Tirthankarahood (leaving aside Omniscience) to the labyrinth of religious legends but would venture to proclaim that Gandhiji was in the line of Tirthankaras and may become Tirthankara in his next Birth.
His method of presenting the subject is new one, The style of his writting is simple but always lively, lucid and informative. He has easy access to the Profound and by virtue of this ability of his he has brought the intricacies of religion to a scientific and popular level. In his reflections, the author, at times, rises to visionary heights but his diction maintains the usual clarity.
Persons, hankering after a Scientific Faith, should follow the whole book very closely and surely they shall benefit by it.
The whole book provides a clearcut idea about the forces acting and reacting on any human being in this world-a knowledge of which can make the man to think, to speak, to act and behave Rightly to gain the maximum happiness here and hereafter.
