Sri Aurobindo — Sahana Devi

August 21, 1932

What the Mother suggests is that since there are two rooms upstairs, you could have your cot in one of them,–for it is better to sleep upstairs – using it as a bedroom, and two rooms downstairs, those nearest the rooms by the half-well. This would give space for the accommodation of others in the house which would otherwise be difficult. We have to be economical in the use of possible accommodation just now, because the Savary House will have to be vacated after a time and there is a possibility of other shaving to be vacated also if they become unsecure or if the owners refuse to renew the lease or are willing to renew only at an exorbitant rent. At the same time new inmates are always coming. You will therefore see whether you cannot manage with this arrangement.
