Sanjiban's Correspondence with The Mother

11 October 1939

Mother,

I was again feeling much like singing. Will you tell me if it would be a hindrance to my Sadhana or harmful to me in any way if I accept music again? If not, will you permit me to sing.

I can’t do much painting now. I have not sufficient energy for it nor do I feel any inspiration. It is so dull!

If by singing you get some satisfaction there is no objection to your singing. But I regret that you have left painting because you were progressing well.

My love and blessings
