The Rule of St. Benedict - Chapter 54. Letters Or Gifts For Monks

(1) In no circumstances is a monk allowed, unless the abbot says he may, to exchange letters, blessed tokens or small gifts of any kind, with his parents or anyone else, or with a fellow monk.
(2) He must not presume to accept gifts sent him even by his parents without previously telling the abbot.
(3) If the abbot orders acceptance, he still has the power to give the gift to whom he will;
(4) and the brother for whom it was originally sent must not be distressed, "lest occasion be given to the devil," (Eph 4:27; 1 Tim 5:14).
(5) Whoever presumes to act otherwise will be subjected to the discipline of the rule.
