Letter written on 5 Jul 1963 om
This is one of hundreds of letters Osho wrote to Ma Anandmayee, then known as Madan Kunwar Parekh. It was written on 5th July 1963 in the afternoon. The letterhead has "Acharya Rajneesh" in a large, messy font to the right of and above the rest, which reads:
- 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 simple "मां", Maan, Mom or Mother. There are a couple of the hand-written marks seen in other letters, a black tick mark up top and a faint but readable mirror-image number bottom right, 192.
This letter is written all in blue ink, as Osho experiments with colour. Emphasis is achieved with underlines. In the PS he mentions he is writing while "on tour", from Sachcha Baba Ashram in Arail, Allahabad
This letter has been published, in Bhavna Ke Bhojpatron Par Osho (भावना के भोजपत्रों पर ओशो) on p 230. The book has the date as the 4th, but 5th is clearly what is written in the letter. We are awaiting a transcription and translation.
