10th October 1964

Dear Amiya,

We received your letter of 7th October and Baba felt happy to hear it. Baba wants that you should now inform Mamaji that he should start translating God Speaks without any apprehension. Baba will help him internally in this work. He can also maintain contact with A. C. S. Chari for the necessary help. Charijee will very gladly help him. Baba gives his love-filled kiss to Mamaji and wants that he should fearlessly and with pleasure and according to his own convenience do his work of translating the book.

Baba has given you permission to personally meet the director of All-India Radio, Raipur. Maybe some of the recordings are done in the very studio itself. You can go and find out the necessary details about it. We had sent the same songs to Shri J. N. Mishra, Secretary, Avatar Meher Baba Centre, Raipur, opposite Allahabad Bank, Raipur but we have not received any reply from him. Maybe he will not be able to do this work. Even then, when you go to Raipur, please meet him. I have not sent him any letter or acknowledgement. You will ask him, by writing a letter, whether the All India Radio accepts tapes or not.

We have received your letter about the poems of Francis Brabazon, and he is sending you his poems today himself.

We received the program for the Modi Dramatic Club1. In that program, there is nothing related to Baba, neither any message about Baba. We had sent a message to them, but the message was not printed.

Baba was touched to hear the tragic story of Professor Nagarkar2. Baba wants that Professor Nagarkar should constantly remember Him and not worry about anything. Baba says that Baba is the only one who never grows old. Everybody else grows old. Baba remains eternally young in the centre of Infinite Time, and tells all the old men to feel inspired enough to become young again.

Baba wants Seth Govindas to read the Everything and Nothing and God Speaks. You tell him to buy these books.

Baba wants that Sister Gauri should correspond regularly with mother, and also inform her about the pranks that dear Mehernandini plays so that Matajee may feel happy.

Baba is pleased with you, and He sends His love to you to Gauri to Rajanikant, to Professor Nagarkar, to Professor Varma, to Professor Bajpayee, and every other Baba lover, and He sends His love-filled kiss to Mehernandini.

Jai Baba

Affectionately,

Your Bhau

P.S. We hope that the programs you are going to have on 12th and 13th of October will have their impact, and Sardar Amarsingh Saigal will fill the lovers of Baba with inspiration by his impressive lectures.


1. In spite of the complaint, eventually Sardar Amarsinghjee Saigal did speak, and gave a wonderful talk.

2. "Nagarkar was a very good professor of History, and a very good man, and he was a bachelor all his life, and all his money was put in a private bank that was not nationalized. And suddenly the bank went bankrupt and he lost all his money. And because he had not married there was nobody to look after him in his old age, and he got some diseases. He was my senior colleague, and we respected him, and he used to tell me about his woes, and also expressed his love for Baba. So I wrote a letter to Baba about him.

"Baba's response comforted him a lot. I think he did not survive for a long time after that."
