Epilogue
My family members have expressed their approval (anumodanā) of my intense involvement in this work through a sweet and thoughtful gesture. They have resolved as under:
- Mrs. Manju Jain will undertake pilgrimage to two holy places–Sammed Shikharji and Hastinapur–and gift 5 copies of the book at each place.
- Mr. Raghav Chhabra and Mrs. Sonal Jain Chhabra will personally gift 20 copies of the book to Jaina temples and/or muni/āryikā.
Tanisha (11½ years) will memorize at least 5 sūtra. Kushagra (8 years) will practice reading aloud passages in English.
- Mr. Kishore Jain and Mrs. Malika Jain will personally gift 20 copies of the book to Jaina temples and/or muni/āryikā.
