Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

August 19, 1938

You didn’t say whether you approved of all that Dr. Manilal recommended for Z as regards the treatment.

No objection.

Guru, I expected something new after the Darshan touch, but the same old stuff (in poetry) with the same difficulty in writing!

It is very good stuff.

The difficulty is perhaps due to these few days’ interval?

Probably.

Did you see “the seas of rapture in my heart”? All right?

Seas have not to be seen so much as swum on.

And how did you find the Bangalore scientists? They seem to have been much moved, God knows by what!

The supramental, I suppose!

One of them, the hardest nut and a “jewel” of the group, Govinda, was on the point of tears at the farewell! Just think!

Again the supramental! The supramental is beyond all thinking.
