I hear they're trying to repossess Bevan's gold codpiece, though. Before Maharishi died he threw a shitfit about everybody being able to wear a gold crown but him, so somebody suggested giving him something gold that he could wear but "not wear," meaning that it wouldn't show. So they settled on a gold codpiece, figuring that would puff up his ego the same way it does his pants. But now they're rethinking it, because the gold is worth more to the movement than Bevan is.
