Almost never about MMY.
That is an interesting point. Maybe M was more discreet. Maybe M's women were more reticent to go public, like Radha did with the Muktananda story (http://www.leavingsiddhayoga.net/Radha_story.htm - She was a member here for a while) or various women with Amrit Desai. It may also have something to do with the way different organizations handle damage control. In any event, Judith Bourke, who is currently living in Sweden, says she has written a book which she plans to publish after M dies. Maybe the press will find that interesting. Jennifer says she hasn't really told her story yet, aside from relating some of it to Ned Wynn and his wife. We'll see what she decides to do. Maybe the whole thing will die a quiet death, all sorts of fanciful myths will be concocted, and 2,000 years from now some guy will make a fortune writing a best seller claiming that M had progeny.
