Letter written on 5 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. 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 just plain "मां", Maan, Mom or Mother. It has a couple of the hand-written marks that have been observed in other letters: a blue number (20) in a circle in the top right corner and a red tick mark, plus it has a new variation on a previous theme: Instead of a pale blue mirror-image number or mystery mark -- pale blue and mirror image arising because of writing showing through from the back side of the paper -- there is a black non-mirrored "45". 45 fits (more or less) as a number with other recent pale blue mirror-image numbers but the marking method has changed. For this letter anyway.

We are awaiting a transcription and translation.
