Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

October 22, 1937

[Sri Aurobindo stopped all correspondence due to some eye-trouble, and the Mother, instead, took up the medical correspondence.]

Mère, veuillez-vous me dire comment Sri Aurobindo se porte?

[The Mother put brackets around “veuillez-vous” and wrote above it “Voudriez-vous”.]

Très bien, mais je tiens à ce qu’il ne reçoive pas de correspondance pendant quelques jours encore. Si vous avez quelque chose d’urgent à me communiquer vous pouvez le faire.¹

[A letter from Sitabala:]

Ma! for the last few days I have been having a severe attack of headache... My head feels empty and I cannot walk with S’s steps... I do not have good sleep nor can I eat well. I pray to you for speedy-recovery.

With humble pranam at your feet

your child Sitabala

Nirod

I would like you to see her – It might be “artério-sclérose”. Will you verify it and let me know? I suspect also that she is constipated, it is to be ascertained.

¹ Mother,

Could you tell me how Sri Aurobindo is? Very well, but I don’t want him to receive any correspondence for a few more days. If you have anything urgent to communicate to me, you may do so.
