Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

July 19, 1938

“... Until an omnipotence

Crowned with a white

Immaculate destiny.”

Don’t white and immaculate have the same meaning?

No, one can be immaculate without being white; but it reminds of Gandhi’s “spotless white khaddar”. Your emendation is quite the right thing.
