There is detailed account of MMY's activities in "Thirty Years Around
the World" and in "The Story of the Maharishi". According to Mason, MMY
began his first world tour in 1959. The first world tour began in
Rangoon, Burma, and included the countries of Thailand, Malaya,
Singapore, Hong Kong and Hawaii. He arrived in Hawaii in the spring of
1959 and began lecturing and teaching in Honolulu, then San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Boston, New York and London in that same year.
