"People would always say that Maharishi was out in the world to make all the money he could. It boils down to how people see the world themselves. What is their motivation? By and large it is money. The basic motivation of mankind is money, gain, financial worth. And of course many said Maharishi was the same way. But this has never been true. With his intelligence and ability he certainly could have thought of easier ways to make money than that. If he was out to make a buck, it was the hard way to do it."
