    All your stories reveal the journey of Marathi literature; they show the ups and downs, the waves, the turns throughout the journey. Your story takes a short break at every mile-stone, looks back and then continues its journey once again, with a new vitality. Dear Va Pu; your narratives are the most senile yet the latest. They do not abandon the traditions nor do they exclude the newest trends.

They flow like a stream, gently, rhythmically, capturing the minds, hypnotizing them."

The essays provide enlightenment into the Indian mantric tradition, and into Western attempts to understand that tradition. They also discuss the issues surrounding the debate over whether mantras should count as instances of language.

This essay covers more than 1600 items and situates mantra contextually in Indian history, society, and culture. It approaches a bibliography of all of Hinduism and will serve as an invaluable tool for future research.
