Respected mother Mahasati Prabhavatiji Maharaj is the greatest energy to me. Alas ! she has gone to the father's abode on 27th January, 1982. It would be a matter of more joy if she could see this book printed by her own eyes ; but nothing can be done. Which cannot be cured must be endured. It is my solemn wish that in the rememberance of Holy mother I may enrich the treasure of literature.
It would not be proper at this occasion to forget my elder sister Mahasati Pushpavatiji Maharaj ; because she is a perenneal source of instigation to me to step forward in the field of knowledge.
The serviceful co-operation of my sramana companionsRamesh Mun, Rajendra Muni, Naresh Muri is of great importance in my writing work. It would be negligence on my part, if I donot remember their polite behaviour and co-operation.
Lastly, I am grateful to all the writers, whose books are referred in preparing the present volume.
