Nonsense. Even Jesus accepted money for his Church. Monks and

the most practical thing they could do, and were quite happy to be 

materialistic about it, and pay for it, just like you would for TV, 

airplanes, buses, internet computer, etc. You just have your 

priorities skewed. Also, almost all ancient cultures had some 

concept of Karma, and believed that they were given what they had 

for a reason (wether they were given poverty or wealth), And 

Maharishi has said that it is the 'deserving ability' of the people 

that allows them to gain the necessary means, which is what almost 

all ancient cultures believed, including Guru Dev's cultural 

worldview.


Is there any record of Swami Brahmananda Saraswati *charging* for a mantra? Or was it just on a donation basis? Or was it free?
