Part 76 (2/2)

By last mail from India I learn that a Sannyasin has started from India. I had a beautiful letter from Miss Mller, also one from Miss MacLeod; the Leggett family has become very attached to me.

I do not know anything about Mr. Chatterji. I hear from other sources that his trouble is money, which the Theosophists cannot supply him with. Moreover the help he will be able to give me is very rudimentary and useless in the face of the fact of a much stronger man coming from India. So far with him. We need not be in a hurry.

I pray you again to think about this publis.h.i.+ng business and write some letters to Mrs. Ole Bull and through her ask the opinion of the American friends of the Vedanta, remembering ”ours is the Gospel of oneness of all beings”, and all national feelings are but wicked superst.i.tions. Moreover I am sure that the person who is always ready to give way to other's opinions finds at last that his opinion has triumphed. Yielding always conquers at last. With love to all our friends,

Yours with love and blessings,

VIVEKANANDA.

PS. I am coming sure in March as early as possible.
