Content

Abstract: This letter from Nehā Girī to Rāya Bhāthi addresses issues related to communication, trade, and urgent financial matters. Nehā Girī expresses concern over a missing letter, reports limited sales activity, and explains the inability to exchange gold and silver at the time. He emphasizes the importance of obtaining money from Jaya Kṛṣṇa, urging Rāya Bhāthi to pursue it using reasoning if necessary. The letter advises caution in financial dealings, warns against unreliable business partners, and stresses that the requested money is essential. The tone reflects both personal concern and the challenges of managing trade under unstable economic conditions.
