In his Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan books, K.M. Munshi writes of the wife as
sahadharmachaarini. The modern
bania has a strange conception of dharma. The radiant presence of the Lakshmi of the house is not what is sought, instead, gold, cash and goods, from her father's savings is what is ardently desired. The Lakshmi herself is secondary.
