Guru Dev had composed a will over 2 years previously and
had it registered in Allahabad. But that's beside the
point because Guru Dev's death was considered untimely,
brought on by natural causes, according to the attending
physician and the coroners report.
If true, Guru Dev would hardly be calling a clerk or a
bookkeeper, in the middle of dying!
Besides, how a 'mere clerk' would come to be sitting
beside a dying Saint and carrying out his last
instructions doesn't make much sense unless Mahesh Yogi
was much more than a mere secretary.
It certainly boggles the mind to imagine how a low-level
clerk could somehow get an audience with a fully-realized
Saint sitting on his deathbed, then somehow get ahold of
Guru Dev's physical body, wrestle it away from all the
other Ashram inmates, put it on a train, and make all the
arrangements for the national funeral up in Kashi, then
get Guru Dev's last will and testament out of the
Jyotirmath Trust at the National Bank, where it was
registered, and then go about installing the succussor to
the Shankaracharya Seat, according to a forged will.
That's a real stretch for a clerk, but never let it be
said that Maharishi doesn't know how to organize a yoga
camp!
