Guide to Transliteration symbols used in the book

             All Sanskrit words used in this book are presented in italics using
             roman scripts as transliteration. The transliteration schema used in
             this  book  is  based  on  International  Alphabet  of  Sanskrit
             Transliteration (IAST). IAST is a transliteration scheme that allows
             a  lossless  romanization of scripts as  employed  by  the  Sanskrit
             language. The details are given below.
