I would like to thank especially Nisha, Manish and Nikunj.

I am further indebted to the staff of the Bibliothèque Nationale in France, the staff of the University Library in Tübingen, and the staff of the Regional Library of Rheinland-Pfalz in Koblenz.37 I am especially obliged to Mr. Peter Wyzlic for introducing me to the electronic data processing. However, the present work would not have come about without the encouragement of my family and friends. Finally, I am grateful to Prof. Dr. Irmgard MännleinRobert, Prof. Dr. Achim Mittag, Prof. Dr. Konrad Volk, and Prof. Dr. Günter Kehrer who participated as members of the board of oral examiners at the Department of Indology and Religious Studies in Tübingen. I would like to thank also Dr. Heike Moser and Prof. Dr. Klaus Butzenberger who kindly arranged the oral examination.
