PREFACE

Shree Nathdwara is the place where I was born some fifty years ago, but much Water has flown through the Banas river since than. I have been working on the cultural heritage of shree Nathdwara since long. I have read a number of books and articles published, I my self surveyed the town several times alone and with friends in my early child hood.’ And after time and again.
Shree Nathdwara has always attracted me from my childhood. I am living in jaipur. But my heart lives in shree nathdwara and in charan kamal of shree nathji. I tried my level best to travel Shree Nathdwara as much as can but unfortunately I got little time out of my family affairs and job, to visit shree Nathdwara.
To write a book on the cultural heritage of shree Nathdwara is not new to me. Because as far as I know not a single book on this topic is available. A few scattered works are in Hindi or are like a tourist guide book only.
So, I finally decided to work on this project but it took much time, I wrote it in pieces, got it corrected as far as possible, went through the available literature, corrected the manuscript, How ever still there can be a lot of improvisation in the book, but with all it’s short comings the book is in your hands, dear reader. I am thank full to all who helped me in the process of writing .
