This book introduces the subject of Jaimini Sutra concisely to beginners. One who wishes to grasp the Sutra quickly can find a systematic way of dealing with the subject. Jaimini Sutra is complex and terse and requires years of Tapasyā to understand. I have given several examples to make the concept clearer. It isn’t easy to decipher and understand the profound meaning of a Sutra without the guidance of a Guru. Therefore, this book does not intend to teach this complex subject; however, it presents a robust framework with apt translations to introduce this subject to an earnest seeker. One who wishes to pursue it further must study under a bonafide Guru. While reflecting on the ślokas, where appropriate, I have provided the interpretations of several Jaimini stalwarts, including Pt Sanjay Rath, Pt Iranganti Rangacharya, Pt Sitārām Śarmā and Prof PS Śāstrī. These are, however, only a few among great scholars and authors such as Dr BV Raman, Śrī B Suryanarain Rao, Pt Durgaprasad Dvivedī, Pt Kashiram, Pt Achyutananda Jhā and Pt Rāmayatna Ojha. There are several other authors from several Indian Languages whose works are equally important. Studying Jaimini is a work of a lifetime, and no works like this can do justice to the subject. With a humble prayer to the almighty and Maharṣi Jaimini, I am presenting this work, which I hope the seekers would like.
