You posted several question marks meaning you have no more clue to this case than anyone else. And you're making an effort to make a mess of this case by mixing where the money came from and an accusation of rape. Most people won't see this as a relevant connection.

It doesn't make much sense that he would have to resort to threats to have sex. Power? Control? And why are you so sanguine about the fact he's a billionaire anyway, any money he's got came from yagya's and teaching fees. If most people in the TMO knew their donations went on air-conditioned Mercedes do you think they'd be happy about any of this? But it doesn't get past the editors of Global Good News so they have no idea. ---In [email protected], <LEnglish5@...> wrote : Dunno anything about Girish Varma except that many people who are hostile to Maharishi are also hostile to him. The accusation of rape is interesting because the behavior allegedly lasted for about 15 years, and involved the wife of his assistant being invited to accompany her husband on trips so that Varma would be able to access the room of the husband and wife whenever he wanted while the husband was doing errands for Varma. According to the wife, this allowed Varma to have sex with her over a period of 15 years whenever her husband went out. The wife kept her mouth shut on the threat that her husband and she would lose their jobs if she said anything. The husband says that he knew nothing of the arrangement until about a year or so ago when he was fired, and his wife was fired, thereupon she confessed the arrangement to him and they went to the police. This is India we are talking about, so I nave no idea how plausible the scenario is within that culture. L
