Dyuman's Correspondence with The Mother

1930

Mother,

I attended the French classes, junior and senior both. Now the question comes to me: Why not read Vedic hymns rather than French lessons? Whenever I go to the library, I do not find any books to read except Sri Aurobindo's and from them I read only on the Vedic hymns and The Secret of the Veda. No doubt I have taken other books, but hardly a few pages 1 have gone through.

I would like to know which is more near and akin to me, and I shall follow You.

Do not narrow your mind. You can find help not only in the "Veda" but in all the writings of Sri Aurobindo.

Why not learn French if you feel inclined?
