PREFACE
Acharya Anant Prasad Jain-"Lokpal”, is one of the enthusiastic and devoted scholars of religion, philosophy and science, who hope and persevere to deliver the good of our ancient religious thoughts to the present day world, Today we hold that physical sciences are the supreme sources of knowledge. Heat, light, electricity, magnetism, sound and birth and growth of plants and animals are treated in different branches of Science which are our authentic sources of knowledge about these and such other phenomena, Ancient Seers and thinkers contemplated upon the nature of the physical world, and the above phenomena also did not escape their notice, but we are generally luewarm to the findings of the ancient thinkers with respect to the physical realities-not for want of faith but for lack of coordination between these and the experimentally demonstrated faots of science. Prof. Jain has the advantage that he has thorough acquaintance with both the ancient religious thought and the modern science. So he has ably undertaken to coordinate the two.
