This is one of hundreds of letters Osho wrote to Ma Anandmayee, then known as Madan Kunwar Parekh. It was written in the afternoon of 22nd July 1961. The letterhead has a simple "रजनीश" (Rajneesh) in the top left area, in a heavy but florid font, and "115, Napier Town, Jabalpur (M.P.) in the top right, in a lighter but still somewhat florid font.

Osho's salutation in this letter is now for the first time just a simple, unadorned "मां", Maan, Mom or Mother. Gone are the Beloveds and the Revereds. It has a few of the hand-written marks that have been observed in other letters: a blue number in a circle in the top right corner (may be a 9, needs to be verified), a red tick mark and a pale blue figure which reads "34" in a mirror (Devanagari characters). There is a second pale blue mark in the top right corner which may or may not mean something.

We are awaiting a transcription and translation.
