________________ ( 4 ) गुरुचरणकृपा मे कञ्चुकीकुर्वती मां नरहरिचरणेच्छां चारयत्यात्मदुर्गे। / अहमिति विगताधिः सञ्चराम्यात्मयोग्यं कपटमतिषिलासर्भेदिभिभिन्नमार्गे // निरवधिनिर्मलवतिप्रकटनशीलप्रभो गुरोस्स्नेहात् / . . औपनिषदात्मदीपः कुरुतात् कल्याणकारिणी विद्याम् / The figures, as well as the Vastu-dhvani that is enshrined in the figures are worthy of any past master of the poet's craft. The same is true of the effortless yamaka in the preceding verse too. It is a little unfortunate that the beauty of these verses has been lost upon the commentator, who has missed even the clear Vyatireka in the last verse. I conclude with my respectful pranamas to the learned editor on behalf of the University and crave his indulgence for the delay in releasing this Volume from the Press, where it has been lying for long. But I am confident, that the long wait has been more than compensated by its release at the hands of His Holiness in the precincts of a great seat of Vedanta. V. VENKATACHALAM Vice-Chancellor Sampurnanand Sanskrit University Varanasi. Varanasi 18.7.1989 Guru Purnima (Vyasa-Purnima)
