Letter written on 27 Sep 1968

This is one of three letters Osho wrote to JK Datta, an advocate living in Jabalpur in the 60s. It was written on the 27th of September 1968. It appears at first to be partly handwritten and partly typed, but the typed part in fact turns to be only a transcription of the manuscript, aside from the dates being different. The manuscript part, indicating 27 Sep, has been taken as authoritative.

Of the three letters to Shri Datta, this is the only one to have been written on any of Osho's letterheads, and this one is probably his oddest, featuring only a blob-like undecipherable logo with no "normal" information. This letterhead has popped up a few times over the years in the 60s.

This letter is not known to have been published.

मेरे प्रिय आत्मन्, आपका पत्र मिला है। 'पथ के प्रदीप ' का आप अनुवाद जारी रखें। और वह जितने शीघ्र होसके उतना अच्छा है। अभी उसका अंग्रेजी रूपांतर नहीं हुआ है कैलिफोर्निया यूनिवर्सिटी में हिंदी के एम. ए. पाठ्यक्रम के लिए उसे स्वीकृत किया है। संभवतः अंग्रेजी रूपांतर का भी वे उपयोग कर सकेंगे। शेष शुभ। परिवार में सबको मेरे प्रणाम कहें। रजनीश के प्रणाम २७/९/१९६८
