GHAZIPUR,

13th Feb., 1890.


DEAR SIR,

I am in anxiety to hear of your illness. I am also having some sort of a pain in the loins which, being aggravated of late, gives much trouble. For two days I could not go out to meet Bābāji, and so a man came from him to inquire about me. For this reason, I go today. I shall convey your countless compliments. “Fire comes out”—that is, a wonderful devotion to Guru and resignation are revealed; and such amazing endurance and humility I have never seen. Whatever good things I may come by, sure, you have your share in them.

Yours etc.,
VIVEKANANDA.
