(From Mother to Satprem)
Saturday evening
Satprem, mon cher petit,
Today at noon, I spoke to the doctor about you, and he explained your case to me and told me what has to be done.
He has convinced me, and I think it is the swiftest way of being radically cured. Thus you will take that week [[That "week" in the Vellore hospital was to last more than a month. Mother's letter astounded Satprem, as he did not believe in medicine; he held quite a grudge against Mother, without understanding that She perhaps had other, "educational" intentions. But in reality, during that month in Vellore, Satprem kept fighting not against the so-called "illness," but against the frightful atmosphere of death and suggestion of death that filled that hospital as in a medical Auschwitz. ]] as an exercise in “inner contact.”
Naturally, I will be with you in light and love.
Signed: Mother
