Review
His most important works are— (i) Siddhāntabindu, (11) Aksara-A forgotten Chapter in the History of Indian Philosophy (Ph. D. Thesis writteen in Kiel University, Germany), Critique of Brahmasutra -I and II. Bhagavadgita.-A fresh Approach, Ramanujacharya etc. besides so many works that await publication, including his translation into English of Aņubhâsya.
Right from his school days, upto his days of retirement, Dr. Modi won so many medals, "awards and honours from college, U.G.C as also the State and Central Goverments. He was a life-time honoured scholar. His English translation of the Anu-bhasya that is in the press is expected to be his most significant contribution to Vedanta lore. Dr. Modi will be remembered for scores of years to some as a profound scholar, a front-rank researcher, an untiring able teacher, and an authoritative writer on Vedānta and Gitā. Above all this, he will also be remembered as a thorugh gentleman, simple and straightforward, warnı and loving, honest and sincere in his worldly relations, mainly with students. His motto of life was-'plain living and high thinking".
Our salutations to this sayant who was a scholar of all-India fame, Great is our loss, his students mainly of M. A. and Ph D., who were his very heart. May the soul of this worthy son of Gujarat rest in eternal peace.
