I am now in Madanapalle, South India. I visited a function today in the Maharishi Mandir, which was constructed on his behalf in 1956. They said that there will be a cremation on Monday in Allahabad. Maharishis body will arrive on the 9th by direct plane from Amsterdam to Allahabad. I got the news here through the local Maharishi Mandir who in turn informed Mother. I had had a conversation with her a week earlier, and told her that MMY had said he will soon go. She laughed and said, where will he go, to USA? sort of joking. I said no, not like this, leaving this plane. She said something to the effect that there is no going anywhere for the enlightened - he will be here. That was very consoling, I didn't ask further.
