It gives me great pleasure to present this religious treatise . In order to seek translation to various shlokas and understand their meanings, I have sought refuge of several noteworthy collections on this subject. At the same time however, at several places my own version of the translated shloka are presented. I realized that the various translations I referred to belonged to different era's. My attempt to present meanings that appealed to me is with a belief that it would also appeal to today generation. In the process, if any unintentional error in presentation does creep in, I humbly seek pardon for the same.
