CHI. NARANDAS, 
          I got your packet. You must have seen the orders which have been issued.It seems that we remain where we were. That is the position today. What will happen tomorrow, God alone knows.As things are, you can write daily if you wish. The post will be despatched daily from here. But do not expect many letters from me. I wish to conserve my strength as much as possible. There will be plenty of other work for me. If anybody wishes to come and see me, he may. But nobody should be eager to come at any cost. Tell this to Anasuyabehn, Shankerlal and Rama. Inform Saraladevi too. I would, however, advise that only those who cannot restrain their desire to come may come. Everybody should devote himself or hersef as much as possible to the service of the Antyajas.
          If I can reply to any of the other letters which I get, I will do so. If someone does not get reply, he or she should understand that I could not write because of pressure of other work.
          At payer-time this morning, we sang "Vaishnava jana" . Mahadev read the Gita from 6.30 to 8. Vallabhbhai and Mahadev are fasting today. When the fast commenced at noon, the following bhajan which Raihanabehn often sings was sung :
          Awake, O traveller, it is morning now,
          It is no longer night, that you still sleep;
          He who sleeps will lose,
          He who is awake will gain.
          If you have got the complete bhajan there, Panditji should sing it to you all If you have not got it, I will send it from here.
          I feel a little worried on account of Kusum. Does she take complete rest ? She may give up even spinning.
          You must have got the large packet of letters I despatched yesterday. Today only this letter. No, I forget. I couldnot write to Punjabhai yesterday. I am encosing a slip for him today.
