PREFACE I had prepared notes on Indian and Western philosophy during the lectures arranged by the Mumbai University. The brief information in the book covers basic knowledge of Western and Indian philosophy. Western Philosophy is based on wisdom supported by logical arguments. Philosophy in Christianity and Islam is based on Bible and Koran, being different then the Indian Philosophy. Indian philosophy is based on knowledge of truth with logical arguments and faith, supported by preaching of enlightened Sadguru.
The enlightened Sadguru understands the essence of preaching from lord Mahavir swami and Jain principles. If the disciple follows the path laid by enlightened Sadguru on the basis of the preaching & jain principles of Lord Mahavirswami then disciple can experience soul in pure form with endless Joy.
Mahatma Gandhiji was impressed by spiritual views of Sadguru Krupaludev Shrimad Rajchandra. I have done study on his Vachnamrut and Atmasiddhi Shashtra. Therefore I took opportunity to translate Atmasiddhi in English. I hope my effort to translate Aatmasidhi in English will give right understanding of the thoughts expressed by Sadguru Shrimad Rajchandra.
If the reader is hurt by my views and if it is not according to Shashtra, then I request you to please pardon me.
