Amrita's Correspondence with The Mother

22 March 1933

Mother,

Vishnu will be shown tonight how the accounts are to be done. Up till now when the accounts books were with Nolin Behari, nobody had an easy access to them. From now on, if these books are to be kept in the accounts office of the Meditation House on an open shelf, anybody can open them and take a look. This office is never locked. Mother, I do not know how you consider this matter.

It is better if the books remain with you and you will hand them over to Vishnu at the time when it is arranged for his work.

Is Vishnu to be told that he should not disclose the accounts figures to anybody? From tonight he will be in possession of the books.

No, this won’t do at all. You must keep them with you.

Nolin Behari was provided with a shelf for keeping the accounts books and stationery. Will you permit it to be shifted to the accounts office of the Meditation House?

It is not needed if you keep the books with you.
