Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

September 9, 1936

This trouble of S’s has become really a nuissance! Nothing seems to hit him at the right place.

He has written me a furious letter denouncing you and all doctors and their wicked futile ways.

He is so much bent on having his diet increased in spite of our giving him quite a sufficient amount. His excessive hunger points towards some worm infection. Let us try Santonin, if you allow.

But how try without being sure? Liver also gives alternations of not-eating and bouts of excessive hunger.

About me, did you say “less shockingly plump”! Good gracious, was I ever plump? Mother has only to see my bare upper body and exclaim – Oh, doctor like that!

It’s your clothes that made you plump?

Please circulate Force from 2 or 2.30 p.m., will you?

Lord! my least forceful time or rather the fag-end of the same. Never mind.
