The Essays on the Gita is the most important of the published books.* If it is to be translated in Telugu it should be assured that it is an accurate translation in good style. A translation from a translation does not usually secure that object.

At the time this letter was written, Essays on the Gita was the only full-length work by Sri Aurobindo that was available in the form of a book.—Ed.
