VRINDAVAN

20th Aug., 1888.

An aged brother-disciple of mine who has just come back to Vrindavan after visiting Kedarnāth and Badrināth met Gangādhar. Twice did Gangādhar ascend up to Tibet and Bhutan. He is in great happiness and felt overwhelmed and wept at the meeting. He spent the winter at Kankhal. The Karoā (Waterpot) you gave him, he still keeps with him. He is coming back and is expected at Vrindavan this very month. So in the hope of meeting him, I postpone my going to Hardwar for some days. Please convey my deepest respects to the Brahmin devotee of Shiva who is with you and accept the same yourself.

Yours etc.,
VIVEKANANDA.
