Read Amal Kiran's correspondence with The Mother - from 1930 to 1970
The Mother : correspondence
THEME/S
Mother,
You must be remembering the name MB. It is the name of a girl who came here some years ago in order to make research in the archives of Pondicherry in connection with an historical thesis she was writing for her M.A. She got her degree, but otherwise she has been passing through very unfortunate experiences and radical disappointments with the result that she is thoroughly tired of the ordinary life.
In her latest letter she expresses her aspiration to take up yoga. In conclusion she adds: “I will come to Pondicherry as soon as I get an opportunity. Do you think I would be allowed to stay at the Asram for a fortnight? It is because I will be coming there for the Asram and if I am not permitted to stay there it would not be much good.” She is the head-mistress of a well-known school for girls in Bombay. I suppose she wants to come during a vacation. May I give her hope that you will permit her to stay in the Asram?
Truly I have no room.
