Jagannath Vedalankar's Correspondence with The Mother

5 July 1947

Divine Mother,

Today I have fallen victim to a new physical disease — piles. I want to prevent this disease at its very outset. As far as I can see, it has been caused by the constipation that I have had for the last two years.

At any rate, I want to sort out this new disease of piles in embryo. What should I do as a preventive measure for this?

Sit in cold water for 15 minutes daily.
