Champaklal Speaks : 'It is the Ramayana of my life'. 'My life is Sri Aurobindo & the Mother only. To write down their sweet memories is Champaklal's worship'
1950-10-08
There was an understanding between Nirod and myself that one of us would always remain near Sri Aurobindo at night.
One night I was not in the room. Sri Aurobindo asked Nirod: “Champaklal is not there? I cannot sleep.”
N: “He is there on the terrace. Shall I call him?”
Sri Aurobindo: “Yes.”
This conversation was reported to me by Nirod later. When I came in, Sri Aurobindo showed me the different places where he had been bitten by mosquitoes.
As I was rubbing the ointment, he said: “These are not ordinary mosquitoes, that is why I could not sleep.” I rubbed the ointment from 1.32 to 1.52 a.m. This has been happening every night these days.
Only because it must have been indispensable did Sri Aurobindo say “Yes” when Nirod asked “Shall I call him?”
