I heard that Francis Knight was asked to add M's image to the existing painting
(while he was still alive) which I think she also painted, but if someone knows
more, let me know.

I'm not sure when this painting first appeared, except that I do not
remember every seeing it -- either in its version with Maharishi or without --
up to the point when I bailed from the TMO. That is, 1977 or so. I'm pretty
sure the first place I ever saw it or heard anything about it was here on FFL.

Did you have the tradition painting at your puja? I just had the GD portrait.
Come to think of it, we had a massive holy tradition painting without Maharishi
in it at both academies I lived in. And I remember thinking the one with him in
it was a bit rubbish when I first saw it. Like they'd added him in that pose to
associate him with the others but in a fake devotional way rather than the "I'm
just as good as them" way that they - and undoubtably he - liked to be thought
of.
Or is my memory bad and he's always been there?

Well, we all know what the original painting that Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
commissioned to show his position within the Shankaran tradition looks like:

Here's the version used by students of Thom Knoles when they teach "Vedic
Meditation":
There will be no levitating. Expect no unicorns.

No violation of copyright obviously, even though the original painting was
commissioned BY Maharishi and was his own design, from what I understand.
