Or into suitcases or briefcases so that it can't be traced -- remember Leon Weiner and all the funds transferred from country to country in that way. > > And I think that the only ones that he trusted was/ is > > his family.

A non-profit organization is *supposed to* publish detailed records of its income and expenses every year, but since the TM movement has a proven record of moving money across international borders illegally, I think it's safe to assume that part of its intent from Day One was to *hide* how much money the organization has. At this point, after four decades of doing this, I'm sure no one has a clue. However, given human nature, It would be a stretch of the imagination to believe that large amounts of this money had *not* found its way into the pockets of unscrupulous people taking advantage of the situation. My bet is that *most* of the money went into these people's pockets, and that no one will ever see a penny of it again, much less see it spent on the "projects" it was raised for. It's basically the Enron model -- raise money for a "project," transfer the money to untraceable accounts within days of receiving it, and then kill of the "project." Enron did it for years before the bubble exploded, and they were a publicly-traded corporation that was under scrutiny from the SEC and its own stockholders. Almost no one in the TMO has *ever* scrutinized or asked about the money that the TMO handles; what could thieves get away with in *that* organization if they wanted to? My bet is that they did, and will continue to do so quietly until Maharishi dies. And then, for a period of about two or three months after his death, they'll do so openly, throwing caution to the wind, and then beat feet for whatever island they've bought with the proceeds, and leave the blissninnies to try to figure out what happened to them and handle the bankruptcy. ------------------------ Yahoo!
