THE SWAMI BRANDRANATH
I HEARD such a lovely lecture the other night on the Cosmos.
A Little Group of Advanced Women that I belong to are specializing this winter on the Cosmos.
We took it up, you know, because the other topics we were studying included it so frequently. And it s wonderful, really wonderful!
Of course, an untrained mind will grapple with it in vain. One's interest must be serious and sincere. One must devote time to it.
Otherwise one will get more harm than good out of it, you know.
It's like the Russian dances that way.
They are so primal, those dances! And all those primal things are dangerous, don t you think? Unless one has poise!
It's odd, too, that some of the most primal people have the most poise, isn't it?
The Swami Brandranath was like that. I've told you about the Swami Brandranath, haven't I?
He wore such lovely robes! You can't buy silk like that in this country.
