Sri Swamiji's discreet selection and discourses from the Indian mythology which this volume consists of, are intended to spread devotion among the people at large and the devotees in particular. The discourses relayed over Gemini T.V. channel serialised in the morning transmission have been going a long way to inculcate the spirit of righteousness through the electronic medium in a big way in the lay as well as the learned.

Sri Swamiji's wish and direction that the discourses be brought in the form of book and that too in English for the benefit of non-Telugu speaking devotees has initially been fulfilled through the continual and dedicated efforts of Sri Ch. Ramajogeswara Rao (Siddaiah of the Mysore Ashram) and finally Dr. P.G. Krishna Murthy, Journalist &: Retd. Professor of English of Machilipatnam and a silent and steadfast devotee of Sri Swamiji. Sri Swamiji's blessings are naturally given to them and all those whose services enabled the book, "Jnaana Saagar" (Pearls of Wisdom) Volume I to see the light and reach those desirous of possessing it for personal and family benefit.

Sri Swamiji commends the Indian and overseas devotees to meticulously follow each and every story in this Volume and the following ones for their spiritual uplift and enlightenment.
