As I am also related to him, he was gracious enough to give me the Xerox copies of the works of Ramandra Pandita and suggested publishing all of them in a book I am greatly indebted to him and his family members for this kind gesture.

      Accordingly, I started collecting, copying, and editing those works. Shri Milind Joshi, the former Research Assistant, at Oriental Institute, Baroda has also helped me in copying down some of the works in the present collection. I am thankful to him for his assistance. I am also thankful to Dr. S.Y. Wakankar for his help in various ways in the publication of this book. I am indebted to Shri C.P.

It can highlight the outstanding contribution of a scholar to the varied fields of Sanskrit literature, especially the Vedanta and Stotra literature.
