Pavitra’s Ointment

1950-07-23

An insect had bitten Sri Aurobindo in several places. He asked me to rub the ointment, and as I began rubbing it on the knee, he asked: “Is it Pavitra's or Insectol?”

C: “Pavitra's. How do you find it?”

Sri Aurobindo: “Oh, works very well.”

Rubbing went on from 10.20 to 10.40 a.m. This treatment is going on almost daily these days. And I receive boundless ananda too—at his expense!
