Where can i get this book

Reply: This book can be obtained from any Marathi bookstore specializing in the sale of religious books. Alternatively, you can write to the publishers: Keshav Bhikaji Dhawale & Co., Girgaum, Mumbai 400 004 or Ideal Book Depot, Dadar (W), Mumbai 400 028. The book is written in Marathi, no English or any other translation is available. The entire book is like a Mantra and thus has to follow restrictions while reading. The book can be read by anyone with clean and honest intentions (Shri Saraswati Gangadhar writes antahkaran asataa pavitra | sadakaal vaachaave gurucharitra || अंतःकरण असता पवित्र । सदाकाल वाचावे गुरूचरित्र ॥), so far as he follows the instructions + restrictions given in the article. For daily reading, one has to read it just after taking bath, without touching anything else. After reading of the chapter is over, one can continue daily routine as usual. For expert help or queries following person from Pune may be of help: Mr.Anand Sane, +91-(020)-2447-1925 (Morning 10:30AM to 12:00PM). -Palaviprabhu 03:19, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article gives useful information on a specific text important to a sect of Hinduism. However, it requires major cleanup. First, it reads like an essay, with what appears to be religious bias from the point of view of the author--it appears to be written by a single author. Secondly, it gives only one reference, the link for which is broken. Thirdly, the article needs major grammatical revision. I also suggest that the summary needs to be cleaned up and shortened. I edited for some of the noted problems February 2011; however, this article needs additional editors. SuperMGirl (talk) 15:56, 23 February 2011 (UTC) It is wrongly stated that 'Saraswati' in his post-sannyas name is borrowed from his Guru's name. Nrusinha Saraswati was a Dasanami sannyasi. The dasanami sannyasi class is divided into 10 subclasses identified by the latter part of their names (some prefer not use it). These subclasses are identified as 'Saraswati' 'Bharati' 'Puri' 'Teertha' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.240.121.101 (talk) 08:18, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Jkuberke and 116.72.164.44: The point of a plot summary is just that: to summarize the plot of the book. It is not to recreate the entire story of the book. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 12:46, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
