48. What was the original Greek idea of the soul, both philosophical and popular?
54 W. 33 STREET,
NEW YORK,
1 February 1895.
DEAR ADHYAPĀKJI,
You must be immersed in your work now; however, taking advantage of your kindness to me, I want to bother you a little.
What was the original Greek idea of the soul, both philosophical and popular? What books can I consult (Translations, of course) to get it?
So with the Egyptians and Babylonians and Jews?
Will you kindly name me the books? I am sure you are perfectly well and so are Mrs. Wright and the children.
Ever gratefully and fraternally,
Yours,
VIVEKANANDA.
