This is the box HDD put together to keep His vibhooti (holy ash) and kumkum (vermillion) when He was going to leave for His polytechnic studies at Gudiyatham.
He bought the big steel box and found the two smaller boxes at home. In the slightly smaller one He kept kumkum and in the bigger one vibhooti.
You can also see two badges - one of Sri Ramakrishna and one of Swami Vivekananda, two great inspirational sources from young age. His Vedanta guru Mataji Kuppammal gave these two badges to Him. It was a symbol of great prestige for Him to wear them.
