Sri Aurobindo
The Mother
to Prithwi Singh
Correspondence (1933-1967)
27 April 1939
Mother
(After the accident to his leg on 24 November 1938, Sri Aurobindo wrote less frequently to the sadhaks. Most of the following letters are thus from Mother.)
Prithwi Singh,
Well, I surely know very little of human mother's ways because I never dreamt of getting rid of one of my children by giving him or her something!...
Anyhow I had nothing of the kind in my mind and I had a fan put in your room because I knew that you were feeling hot — for, you believe that I have withdrawn, but it is quite a wrong belief — I am with you as I always was and know quite well your inner and outer condition.
If you were not hypnotised by appearances you would surely feel my presence living in and around you at all times.
With my love and blessings
Mother
P.S. The fan is meant to make your room a little cooler — I hope you will use it for that purpose.
27 April 1939
