Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

[Sri Aurobindo and the Mother]

Lalita came with your message to call Dr. André. Do you suspect something else than just boils?

[Mother:] No, but she is a bit nervous about it and is very anxious that all that should disappear quick. The last one in the armpit was very painful. Also she cannot stand medicine internally.

For Benoy’s artificial eye, Nagaswami writes to Rajangam that it will be absolutely necessary for Benoy to go to Madras as each specimen varies from person to person, though we mentioned about sending our sample.

Our oculist says that the Madras firms are no good. We should send a sample to Bombay and ask from there. So it’s better to enquire there, isn’t it?

[Mother:] Yes.

The same process [in writing poetry] gives wonderful results sometimes and foolish ones at others!

It depends on the consciousness-Source you strike; the same method will have different results according to the inspiration fount (or level) you get at.
