This volume was originally conceived to be a comprehensive volume including all the articles of Nolinikanta Gupta on &quot;Savitri&quot; in both English and Bengali. But Jayantilal Parekh wanted it to be a booklet in English only and containing the articles written by Nolinida exclusively on &quot;Savitri&quot;. Hence it had to be reduced to only these six articles contained in this volume. I also told Jayantilalda that I am going to request Dr. M. V. Nadkarni to write a preface for this book. But inspite of Dr. Nadkarni's willingness and best of efforts the preface could not be completed and shown to Jayantilalda since he passed away.

The blessings of the Avatar of the Supreme - Sri Aurobindo -has been invoked by adding as an appendix what he himself has said in his author's note on &quot;Savitri&quot; to make this volume complete in all respects.

<p class="para">
This will hopefully be a very popular volume and will get a wide circulation and then I shall expect someone to come forward and take up the compilation in Bengali of Nolinida's articles on &quot;Savitri&quot; for publication.
