89. I do not work alone, but He is always with me
MADRAS,
12th February, 1897.
DEAR RĀKHĀL,
I am to start by S.S. Mombasa next Sunday. I had to give up invitations from Poona and other places on account of bad health. I am very much pulled down by hard work and heat.
The Theosophists and others wanted to intimidate me. Therefore I had to give them a bit of my mind. You know they persecuted me all the time in America, because I did not join them. They wanted to begin it here. So I had to clear my position. If that displeases any of my Calcutta friends, “God help them”. You need not be afraid, I do not work alone, but He is always with me. What could I do otherwise?
Yours,
VIVEKANANDA.
