Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

June 23, 1936

... One part in me has written about the difficulties and asks for help, another says and laments – You fool, you could have enjoyed yourself a little. Yoga, after all, is there before you – But meanwhile do you know what sandy deserts you have to cross?...

That is of course the whole difficulty – the division in the being. But even so the true being can and surely will prevail.

We’re giving S calomel and mag. sulph to stimulate the flow of bile and a purge also.

Purge quite safe for his weakness?

Please concentrate a little on his stomach.

Have been doing so – but the jaundice development (it must have been incubating from the first) is a nuisance.

Oh yes, giving also plenty of vichy water. Any comment?

Nothing much to say at present.
