6th letter
Dear Naanna,
We knew we were dead psychologically and sociologically with our ontological wounds. We the Untouchables are not new to death, naanna. Ours is a psychological death and sociological death, unlike our Hindu tormentors, who have only physical death, naanna.
Naanna, I am really sorry that I failed to help you or my mother, sister, and their children to save them from this psychological and sociological death.
Naanna, is there any untouchable without dying psychologically and/or sociologically? I wonder if there is any naanna.
Naanna, rest in peace.
Your son,

6th letter (in Czech): Translated on November 07, 2021 by Alena Lerchova
Dopis číslo 6
Drahý otče,
Věděli jsme, že jsme skrze svá trvalá zranění psychicky i sociálně mrtví. Pro nás Nedotknutelné není smrt nic nového, otče. Naše psychická smrt a sociální smrt, na rozdíl od našich hinduistických trýznitelů, kteří znají jen smrt fyzickou, otče.
Otče, je mi nesmírně líto, že jsem tebe, mou matku, sestru a její děti nepomohl zachránit před touto psychickou a sociální smrtí.
Otče, žil kdy nedotknutelný, aniž byl psychicky a sociálně mrtvý? Přemýšlím, jsi to ty, otče.
Otče, odpočívej v pokoji.
Tvůj syn,
Dr. Suryaraju Mattimalla

- Comment from author about the poem: This is my letter to my father about how Indian Hindu civil society treated him as a sub-human throughout his life. He was killed by caste and untouchability in India. There are 200 million untouchables who are facing obnoxious practices of caste and untouchability in India. Thank you, Alena Lerchova, for translating my 5th and 6th letters.
