Remarks on the Current State of the Sadhana, 1931 – 1947

1935 [21]

You say, “I have become superior to it and am travelling forward... fast,” but you have been always superior and always travelling fast all your life.

[Underlining “always superior and always travelling fast”:]

Rubbish!

How is it going to affect us?

If my being able to solve the problem of the subconscient in the sadhana is of no importance, then of course it won’t affect anybody. Otherwise it may.

From the condition of the people you enumerate, there is not much hope left nor does it show that your travelling fast has speeded them up.

That is of no importance at present. To get the closed doors open is just now the thing to be done and I am doing it. Speeding people through them can come in its own time when the doors and the people are ready.

What is the mathematical formula that you have all of a sudden found out? Let us have it in a tangible form, if possible.

I told you it was unintelligible to anybody but myself, so how the deuce do you expect me to give it to you in a tangible form?
