Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

June 14, 1937

Guru, here is the tail of the poem I had begun. I am afraid the typing is as pale as the moon’s eye and the tail as mistily mystifying as the head! What?

Agree.

I hope you get the link throughout. Is it poetic?

Very. Don’t know what it all means, but meaning is superfluous in such poems. The more mystifying the better.

“Voyaging through strange seas of Thought” – highway robbery? Shakespeare’s or Sri Aurobindo’s?

Wordsworth – one of his best known lines.

Medical report – nothing – all old cases.

A wants a tonic for his debility, Kaviraji if possible. Duraiswami has suggested to him “Chyavanpras”. Well?
