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 is partly handwritten and partly typewritten, but the typed part seems to be no more than a typed rendition of the manuscript, aside from the dates being different. The manuscript part, indicating 27 Sep, shall be taken as authoritative.

The presumed typewriter's output is almost like book-quality printing, and, since we don't know when the typing was done or by whom, a Hindi-capable computer must be considered a likely source, ie done much later.

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.
