Life and Death in the Ashram

Fund-Raising [10]

The expenses of each sadhak are reckoned as Rs. 50 a month — but it is not much use asking for that. The real need of money here is of a bigger kind — for development of institutions in the Asram, a place for art, for music, a school for children, a place for science etc. Even the maintenance of the Asram needs larger sums, e.g. for houses to be bought instead of renting them at a heavy recurring expense.
