Letter written on 2 Sep 1961 pm

This is one of hundreds of letters Osho wrote to Ma Anandmayee, then known as Madan Kunwar Parekh. It was written in the evening of 2nd September 1961. In fact, it is one of two letters written to Anandmayee at this time. See discussion for a consideration of which came first. In this one the word "September" is written in full. In the other, it is abbreviated.

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 "प्रिय मां", Priya Maan, Dear Mom. It has a few of the hand-written marks that have been observed in other letters: a blue number (19) in a circle in the top right corner and a red tick mark. It also has the new variation on a previous theme first noted in Letter written on 2 Sep 1961 pm: a black non-mirrored "44", 44 fitting nicely with other recent numbers. AND, rather than replacing the former style, a pale blue mirror-image number or mystery mark, it comes in addition to a "44" in that style.

We are awaiting a transcription and translation, which may also help with deciding which came first.
