Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

September 5, 1936

Again I have a blessed boil inside the left nostril – painful. I feel feverish. A dose of Force, please!

As the modernist poet says

O blessed blessed boil within the nostril,

How with pure pleasure dost thou make thy boss thrill!

He sings of thee with sobbing trill and cross trill,

O blessed, blessed boil within the nostril.

I hope this stotra1 will propitiate the boil and make it disappear, satisfied.

Is that why you tend towards home-eating?

I asked R to return to us the duplicate key of the Dispensary. He has now practically no connection with the Dispensary. He has agreed, but puts a nonsensical suggestion that whenever I go out I should leave the key with the gatekeeper. He also says that if required, another key can be prepared by Manibhai!!

You ought to have shouted before. Now he has given order to Manibhai for another key.

 

1 A hymn of praise.
