致利昂·兰茨伯格先生

贝尔维尤酒店,

波士顿,

1894年9月13日。

亲爱的利昂,

请原谅,但作为你的古鲁(导师),我有权劝告你,我坚持要你为自己添置一些衣物,因为衣着的缺乏正阻碍你在这个国家有所作为。一旦你有了起步,你可以随意穿着。人们不会反对。

你不必感谢我,因为这只是尽本分而已。按照印度教法律,如果古鲁去世,他的弟子是他的继承人,而非他的儿子——假设他在成为托钵僧之前有过儿子的话。你看,这是一种实在的灵性关系,不是你们美国人那种"家庭教师"的关系!

衷心祝福你并祈祷你成功,

此致,

辨喜

XXVII

To Mr. Leon Landsberg

HOTEL BELLEVUE,

BOSTON,

13th September, 1894.

DEAR LEON,

Forgive me, but I have the right, as your Guru, to advise you, and I insist that you buy some clothes for yourself, as the want of them stands in the way of your doing anything in this country. Once you have a start, you may dress in whatever way you like. People do not object.

You need not thank me, for this is only a duty. According to Hindu law, if a Guru dies, his disciple is his heir, and not even his son — supposing him to have had one before becoming a Sannyasin. This is, you see, an actual spiritual relationship, and none of your Yankee "tutor" business!

With all blessings and prayers for your success,

Yours,

VIVEKANANDA.
