This is one of hundreds of letters Osho wrote to Ma Anandmayee, then known as Madan Kunwar Parakh. It was written on 12th December 1962.
The letterhead reads (in Devanagari):
- Acharya Rajneesh [in a large, messy font to the right of and above the rest below]
- Darshan Vibhag [Department of Philosophy]
- Mahakoshal Kala Mahavidyalaya [Mahakoshal Arts University]
- 115, Napier Town
- Jabalpur (M.P.)
Osho's salutation in this letter is a fairly typical "प्रिय मां", Priya Maan, Dear Mom. There are none of the hand-written marks that have been observed in other letters except a mirror-image number in the bottom right corner, probably 156. The 1 and 6 are readable, the 5 presumed.
The letter has been published, in Bhavna Ke Bhojpatron Par Osho (भावना के भोजपत्रों पर ओशो) (2002 Diamond edition, p 183). There it is not dated but it is clearly the same letter. In fact, the letter is also cited on p 46, where the date IS given as 12 Dec. We are awaiting a transcription and translation, but the letter appears to be almost entirely about upcoming events and recent past ones.
