It will be interesting to watch the machiavellian battles after MMY dies. Given the "damn democracy" attitude of the mov't, I expect lots of power politics, not consensus decision making. Tony is king, but I doubt has much real power, ie, control over money. Most of the assets are now in India and the nephews will surely rule as dictators there. Maybe Bevan, Hagelin and Wynne share vedic city as their domain, though Varma is listed as the key financial guy there as well. Hagelin is now the main fund raiser in the US which grants him powerful status, but I wonder how much money he can raise after MMY goes. MMY has handed out a lot of crowns, but it's who he gives bank account signatory powers to that's the key. I don't see any of the rajs or lieutenants or even the King rising as some kind of successor to MMY with similar spiritual-paternal authority and status. IT will also be interesting to see how the TBs react when MMY goes and there's no clear successor authority figure to surrender to and the mov't is still nowhere close to saving their world as promised. I occasionally check into other guru-chatgroups where this has already happened and it's enlightening. The yogananda TBs are still struggling with why their mov't isn't the "dominant religion of the New Age" as promised and coming up with bizarre rationalizations to explain away continual reports of corruption within the org. by "the Mothers" who now in charge. ------------------------ Yahoo!
