Nirodbaran

Nirodbaran's correspondence with Sri Aurobindo began in February 1933 and continued till November 1938, when Sri Aurobindo injured his leg and Nirod became one of his attendants. The entire correspondence, which was carried on in three separate notebooks according to topics - private, medical, and literary - is presented in chronological order, revealing the unique relationship Nirod enjoyed with his guru, replete with free and frank exchanges and liberal doses of humour. Covering a wide range of topics, both serious and light-hearted, these letters reveal the infinite care Sri Aurobindo devoted to the spiritual development of his disciple.

 Sri Aurobindo : corresp.

February 1933

I wrote to you regarding my staying here permanently. My aspiration and decision still stand the same. May I hear from you about it?

Before deciding forever, we can take a period of time and see say till August.

I am thinking of learning French, but will it help me in my sadhana? Will you kindly suggest what I should do by way of some work or studies?

There is some work in the B.D.2—if you like, you can ask Khirod—telling him how many hours you want to work.

There are not much facilities for French just now. The classes have been stopped for a time owing to the illness, of the eyes of the teacher.
