He hoped that later in his life, he would become a monk and when the time was right, he could bring the proper teachings of Jainism to the masses, as there were many undesired factors in the practice of Jainism at that time. Shrimad's writings to his close associates and his personal notes are the essence of Jain religion. He has given us priceless spiritual gifts including Mokshamala, Atmasiddhi-shastra, Apurva Avasar and many other spiritual writings in the form of letters, articles, and poems. In his short life of 33 years, he has delivered the spiritual message of eternal importance. He explained Bhagawan Mahavir's teachings in simple words. Now these teachings have become accessible to ordinary people and we have the unique opportunity to learn about the inner state of a truly self realized person. 144 Jain Story Book
