History of Dharmashastra (Ancient and Mediaeval Religious and Civil Law in India) v7.c97.2

v7.c97.2

To write an autobiography is a most difficult and delicate matter. In an autobiography one has often to use the words 'I', 'Me', 'My' etc and the writer is liable to be charged with egotism. If he is very frank about his own failings and faults, he may be accused of exhibitionism. I do not propose to say much about my parents or my ancestors or about my marriage and family life or my likes and dislikes I had my own share of anxieties, troubles and sorrows, but I shall not say much about them, since the blessings that were showered on me far outweighed the anxieties and sorrows A brief account of some aspects of my long life may, I hope, be of some interest and help to those who have to face problems similar to those that I had to face.
