The present work, appearing for about a couple of years as a serial in "The Vedanta Kesari", was completed. Since then there has been continuous call for it in book form. After considerable revision, a provisional edition of it is now issued to meet this demand. As it is, the book now comprises two parts. The original aphorisms, as constituted from four previous editions, are printed first in Devanagari alphabet, chapter by chapter, along with their word-by-word meaning and English rendering which aims to be faithful to the spirit of the original rather than to the letter. The division into five chapters is also based on the editions consulted for deriving the text. All the variant readings too noticed in them are indicated in the body of the book itself within brackets. It has been intentionally made so to make the book welcome to the lay reader who has not the equipment to penetrate to the important arguments of the Sanskrit text through the hurdle of exegetical appurtenances.
