Nirodbaran

Correspondence with Sri Aurobindo

The Complete Set

I send you a photograph of an intimate friend, Jatin Bal. Please have a look at it and tell me what you find – yogic or unyogic.

Refinement in vital, strong will, capacity for idealism – can't say more from a small photograph.

don't mind the side show! If you had seen me before, you would have exclaimed: “This fellow has no scrap of a chance for yoga!” But you will admit that I had health and vigour!

The general impression is martial and pugilistic. To be recommended to the Negus for Gorrahei or Gerlogubi.
