Maharishi was a master at creating conflict and guilt regading sex. He would come to men's courses and extol the virtues of celibacy then go to the ladies courses and talk about how they should be married. He would talk very very down to people who were in relationships.
A dear friend of mine who lived on/worked on M's wing in Europe, with his wife (they ended up divorced) said M was very, very denigrating to couples even though he had them working directly for him. He would frequently have them each working on separate projects, never able to
see each other, and it they complained to him that they never got to see their spouse, he, Maharishi, would really put them down in his response, tell them to make a choice.
I remember him really putting Chris Wege down in India just before Chris had a vedic wedding ceremony choreographed by Maharishi. But before it happened-the wedding-although Maharishi never used anyone's name in a massive put down of couples and marriage, it was clear he was putting someone down and then Chris's wedding came right after the put down.
I know there were many other instances of Maharishi putting couples-relationships-sex down that I personally heard and experienced and it did alter my life.
A friend of mine, long time pro TM guy, ardent devotee for almost 40 years now, who had a nervous breakdown years ago after wrestling with the guilt of being married and the whole sex thing, in a final "stroke", just before finally being committed (and subsequently making a complete recovery) tried to slice his testicles and other male equupment off. That's how guilty some people became.

As tragic as that is, any act we commit, we own. It is ours alone. I sincerely hope he is happier now.
