It's not clear to me who this was sent to. I'll post that info when I find
out.

Here's a message from Maharaja ji today:
I spoke this morning with Girish-ji and he lovingly welcomed the news but
brought to my attention a delicacy in the notice sent by Raja Hagelin which
he had read to me before sending (but I had not carefully looked at it).
The following statement is not really accurate since Maharishi-ji never said
to me the following in those terms: "Maharishi had told him that, in the
tradition of rulership, having the support of a Royal Family brought
stability and strength to the Kingdom".
This is why it is best not to quote Maharishi in this regard. Maharishi has
been most delicate and quiet about it and all he told me directly when I
personally was wondering what impact it will have was: ".this will be good
for The Movement.". Other thoughts were deductions from discussions and side
allusions.
Therefore please do not quote Maharishi in this (not even the above quote)
and if asked just say that you personally were never told anything by
Maharishi about it.
We do not want to give an impression that this is a better path to follow
than the path of Single life for a Raja or anyone in society. Maharishi
emphasized, as I constantly do, the importance of Purusha life style. Why he
blessed this situation? There are many reasons but we do not need to
necessarily get into them right now.
You have all been wonderful and I am glad the time had come to share the
news with all of you. It brings me great joy and a new sense of fullness to
know that you are aware of this.
With always renewed one pointed focus and inspiration to fulfill the goals
Maharishi-ji has graced us with for the achievement of the highest for human
kind and in deep gratitude to Him and all of you for the clarity of purpose,
resolve and joyful dedication to His eternal guidance.
Jai Guru Dev
Raja Raam
