Over a period of time the craft had acquired sufficient sophistication and regional and caste associations to facilitate its cla.'isification into as many as twenty two schools. five major and three minor ones and fourteen others obtaining in the Kutch and Saurashtra re~ions respectively. The work is known to have been done mostly for personal use. till it was exploited for commercial purposes in later years. It is commonly done in free hand. fJut the use of woodell blocks for printing the basic design of motifs to be embroidered is rot llnknown.

The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God.

Many members of this community shared a history of migration into Gujarat from the southern Arabian Peninsula, north Africa, Iran, Central Asia and the neighboring territories of the Indian subcontinent. I analyze two key aspects related to the making of a community of ii learned Muslim men in the fifteenth century - the production of a variety of texts in Persian and Arabic by learned Muslims and the construction of tomb shrines sponsored by the sultans of Gujarat.

These numbers are expected to increase to 600 million by 2031. The Census 2011 also showed that in 4,041 statutory towns, close to eight million households do not have access to toilets and defecate in the open (7.90 million). Unsafe sanitation has significant health costs and untreated sewage from cities is the single biggest source of water resource pollution in India. This indicates both the scale of the challenge ahead of the Indian cities and the huge costs incurred from not addressing them. Hence the Govt. of India launched the SBM in October 2014 to achieve the following objectives: 1. Elimination of open defecation 2.

JAVERILAL UMIAHANKAR YAJNIK. Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. LONGFELLOW. o b a : $ m ]t PRINTED AT THP: EDUCATION SOCIETY'S PRESS, BYCULLA. INTRODUCTORY NOTE. FOR some time past it has been felt by the friends of Mr. Gaorishankar, European as well as Native, that it would be" desirable to have some record of his life and work. In compliance with this desire, I undertook to compile a short account of him from such materials as were available to me. These were not so full and ample as I could have desired. They were wanting in that essential element which gives its chief interest to a work of biography, namely, private correspondence. On this account nobody is more sensible than I am of the imperfect nature of the present sketch, and my only reason for permitting its publication is that it is better to have some record, however wanting in fulness, of the work done by the first living statesman of Kathiawad, now in retirement as a Sanyasi, than to have none at all. Since writing this sketch, however, I am glad to say that my friends, Messrs. Vajeshankar and Prabhashankar, the two worthy sons of Mr. Gaorishankar, have, at my suggestion, undertaken to arrange systematically the whole of the correspondence, records, and papers, in in of the English and Gujarat i, which are the possession family, and may serve to elucidate the career of their illustrious father.
