Letter to Rukmabai

To Smt Rukmabai

Dear Sister,

You are to me only a sister in future. Sriram at whose feet I have surrendered myself entirely has called me away from the past sphere of my life. I go forth a beggar in the wide world chanting the sweet name of Sriram. You know I have no ambition in life except to struggle for the attainment of Sriram’s Grace and Love. To that aim alone I dedicate the rest of my life and suffer for it – suffer to any extent. We may not meet again – at least as husband and wife. Walk always in the path of God and Truth and make Rame do the same.

Don’t give up the spinning wheel. It will give you peace and happiness. Let Rame also work it.

Sriram’s blessings on you and Rame – He protects you both.

Yours affectionately P Vittal Rao 27.12.22
