Dear Acharyaji,
(12)
17 Bendler Strasse, Berlin W. 10, November 27, 1926.
Many thanks for your letters dated October 1st and November 2nd. I got them only yesterday because I was absent from Berlin for more than 3 months delivering lectures on Indian Philosophy in seven universities of the United States of America. With interest I shall read the literature you did send to me on the Shatrunjaya question. Because of my long journey I was not able to write much during these last months, but I hope that I shall be able to take up the work soon. In America I have seen very much and my lectures were very successful. In Chicago there is quite an Indian colony, the gentlemen, mostly traders, were kind enough to invite me. In New York, Boston and several town in California the Vedanta Society or Ramakrishna Mission has a house and a number of followers. Unfortunately I did not meet any Jain in America. At the International Congress of Philosophy in Cambridge, Mass. where I delivered a lecture on Indian Philosophy, I meet Prof. Dasgupta and Prof. Radhakrishnan.
You write again "If you have done with the books I sent you as a loan, please return now". As I wrote you already twice to you I have returned to you together with the Mss. and the photographs all the books of which you mentioned that I have to return them. In my last letter written before my departure to America I asked you write to me the titles of the Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat
