The factors of his age and for the most part imaginary health problems, which he entrusted to the care of the unlikable Dr Morell, doubtlessly played a crucial role in his decisions to go to war, each time as soon as possible. Claus-Ekkehard Bärsch states straightaway: “The model for Adolf Hitler is Christ”, 765 and John ...
... born of horror on the one hand and greed on the other. Just listen: "We are all more aware of our fellow-citizens than we used to be, more anxious, if we are virtuous, to do them good,"—like Dr. Stanley Jones, what?—"and in any case to make them do us good. We do not like to think of anyone lazily enjoying life, however refined may be the quality of his enjoyment.

They passed a resolution recommending the "complete severance of the Depressed Classes from the Hindu fold and their ...
... where a historically located person like Rowse's Emilia Lanier whom you prefer is concerned. You forget that Rowse's reading of the word "brown" for her in Simon Forman's diaries was proved wrong by Stanley Wells in the TLS of May 11, 1973, p. 628. Going straight to the manuscript in the Bodleian, Wells finds Rowse's description of Emilia as "very brown" to be a gross misreading, like several other... too much. Yes, the England of the Imagination is eternal and no poetry is greater than ours has been. It all seemed to end with the last war - before that war there were Eliot and Yeats and David Jones and Dylan Thomas and Edwin Muir and Vernon Watkins and de la Mare and many fine poets of lesser stature. Now there is no-one; David Gascoyne stands alone. I do my best which is not good enough. Otherwise... perhaps. But the Lindisfarne Press, with whom I was staying for a time, have published an excellent book by Robert MacDer-mott entitled The Essential Aurobindo, which I read while I was there. Dear Dr. Sethna, I do hope all is well with you. The lilies were in my garden earlier this year. (6.8.1989) From K. D. Sethna I have two letters of yours - May 10 and August 6, the latter ...

I have not read Stanley Jones, but I should not be surprised to find there is some justification for the feeling of sickness. I don't know why so many Christian writers have a way of writing and preaching which gives a sense... on the one hand and greed on the other. But just listen a bit: "We are all more aware of our fellow-citizens than we used to be, more anxious, if we are virtuous, to do them good (like Raihana's Dr. Jones, what ?) and in any case to make them Page 31 do us good.

Yes, he is liberal—but of this superficial... indeed' The wish is father to this very precipitate thought. Well, I don't think I would put the Supramental into competition on that basis with Christ.
