Sri Aurobindo and Mother to Prithwi Singh

19 May 1966

The other day I told you about that comet, and something amusing has happened. Just for fun I said to myself, "Oh, it would be quite interesting to see this comet as it can be seen through the most powerful telescope ever invented." And barely had the thought come (it was last night) when I heard, "Look." So I opened my eyes, and I saw the comet, big like this, very big, as it could be seen with the most powerful telescope, quite bright, with its tail! And the interesting thing was that just beside it (not like the comet's tail, but just next to it), there was a star, a sort of star, but quite small, and very bright, which seemed to me of a very peculiar interest.

And the effect is going on. That substance I told you about is still acting in the earth atmosphere.

Ma douce Mere,

I am sending herewith 6 copies of my book of translation [Bengali] of Sri Aurobindo's Poems in Quantitative Metre. Only 12 copies have arrived today. I will send more copies when they come.

I hope the Mother will like the general get-up of the book. The price will be Rs. 2.50

Prithwi Singh



The get-up is very good.

Blessings

Mother
