There are dozens of biograpies on her, which one do you reffer to ? I heard this from a fellow probably still on Purusha, he was there.
It does not make sense that Maharishi would invite an indian saint to Europe knowing that hundreds of her disciples automatically would follow. Some of these disciples refused to leave her and travelled along with her all over India. She was very well known in India, having thousands of disciples and started ashrams all over the country. If you happen to go to Vrindavan you could drop by her ashram there, very strong athmosphere though in need of renovation. ------------------------ Yahoo!
