Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

January 26, 1937

Is today’s poem surrealist? If I am going too fast I may put a check. But these blessed images come in so alluring a way that I dance with joy.

Surrealism means a dream-sequence poetry – and modern dreams are extravagant. The images may be all right but they get entangled and intertwisted or else on the contrary one jumps from one to another that seems unconnected.

Please ask Pavitra to send me the French medical journal.

It is with me.
