Rules in the Life of the Ashram

Avoidance of Speech and Writing about Ashram Life [2]

I am sending herewith a letter from a friend. Can I let him know some details about the Ashram?

It is an express rule of the Asram not to give inner information of the Asram life to people outside. If the correspondent is a seeker after Yoga (which does not seem to be the case here) he can be told general things about the Yoga (not anything personal to the sadhaks or to Sri Aurobindo or the Mother).
