Financial stringency was a day to day affair in the life of Brahmacharyasram since its birth. In the lifetime of Maharshi Devendranath financial help for construction of building and other capital expenses was amply available. But after his death the doors of such help was closed. Rabindranath had a small land and a bunglow on the seashore of Puri. To meet up his demand for money for Brahmacharyasram he had to sell that property and paid the debt caused by constructing a new building for himself 'dehali' in Santiniketan.
Maharaja of Tripura Radhakishore Manikya helped him regularly @ Rs.100/- pm towards the expenses of Santiniketan.From some other sources also he received some help.
Rathindranath wrote that with the help of Okakura, a jujutsu teacher was brought to teach Jujutsu. When Rabindranath went to Tokyo, he wrote to Samindra,I am happy to learn that your training in Japanese is going on smoothly. Do you able to speak a word or two now ?Only reading will not help you, you must try to speak with your teacher Sano San. What is the stage of your Jujutsu training now ? Do you have Jujutsu training daily ? Rabindranth was eager to know the answer of all such questions.He wanted to have him trained both physically and mentally.
In the evening, there was arrangements for cultural entertainment in Brahmacharyasram. When Rabindranath remained present in Santiniketan he would also join such programme. He wrote Manoranjan Babu that the Asar became successful.He was careful about the rights of female section of the society.this was in the year 1906.
