Sri Aurobindo — Sahana Devi

Undated

I do not see why you should give up singing – especially now that your voice has returned– Mother heard you singing and remarked it. It ought not to depend on X’s attitude or ^trained feeling. I don’t quite know what the strain is about. From his last letters I could only gather two things, first, about your dropping the work in connection with the book, second, that you don’t like his music and show it and that that makes him nervous. Is the latter a fact or only over sensitiveness on his part? Any-way it should not stop your singing.
