Roi, Dilip Kumar

Dilip Kumar Roy (1897-1980) was born at the one of the most aristocratic families of Bengal. His father was a poet and a dramatist. Dilip was finished Cambridge and was skilled in mathematics and musics. He was a famous Bengal singer. Amid his good friends there were R. K. Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Romain Rolland, Bertrand Rassel. He was author of 75 books on Bengalee and 26 books on English. At 1923 he knew on Sri Aurobindo's workings. At 1924 he visited Sri Aurobindo at Pondicherri and talked with him. But did not got permit to stay. May be it was because of his disease. However at Aug. 1928 he returned at Pondicharry
     Sri Aurobindo wrote to him, "It is a strong and lasting personal relation that I have felt with you ever since we met and even before and it is only that that has been the base of all the outward support, consideration, care and constant helping endeavour which I have always extended towards you and which could not have arisen from any tepid impersonal feeling. On my side that relation is not likely to change ever.
       "Even before I met you for the first time, I knew of you and felt at once the contact of one with whom I had that relation which declares itself constantly through many lives and followed your career (all that I hear about it) with a close sympathy and interest. It is a feeling which is never mistaken and gives the impression of one not only close to one but a part of one's existence... The relation that is so indicated always turns out to be that of those who have been together in the past and were predestined to join again (though the past circumstances may not be known) drawn together by old ties. It was the same inward recognition (apart even from the deepest spiritual connection) that brought you here. If the outer consciousness does not fully realise this, it is because of the crust always created by a new physical birth that prevents it. But the soul knows all the while."
