Preface

INDIA is a sacred land which has given birth to several great devotees of God.

The lives of these devotees kindle in us great morals, self sacrifice for the welfare of all the living beings, devotion to parents and to God.

A study of the lives of these great devotees is aimed at spreading among us the noble ideals and tenets practiced by these devotees. The noble lives of these great devotees have undoubtedly exercised considerable influence on the cultural and moral development of our society.

The lives of great devotees are the eternal monuments of our ancient culture and heritage, A study of their lives give a fillip and inspiration for the continuity and development of our culture and heritage in this changing society towards materialism. Their lives teach us how to cultivate devotion, acquire spiritual knowledge and become true devotees of the Lord of the universe by self sacrifice, adherence to truth, justice, equality, compassion and love towards all living beings irrespective of caste, creed and mild and wild animals.

A study of the lives of devotees induces in us largeness of mind and heart and normative vision. They give us moral contentment.

Hence the need for the study of lives of great devotees.
