The Ideal of the Karmayogin [2]

In the new edition of The Ideal of the Karmayogin there is this announcement: –

Fourth Edition – January, 1937

(Thoroughly Revised by the Author)

Radhakanta is repeating the above formula in all your old books which are really reprints. May I ask him not to do it?

Evidently it is an untrue statement and cannot be allowed to continue as it creates a false impression. But I think it will be necessary for me to write myself – otherwise he may not listen. Or you may write that I have asked you to inform him that I want this to be discontinued in future editions as it creates a wrong impression – since in fact these are reprints and I have not revised or rewritten any part of them.

23 April 1937
