I remember him flying off in late 1972 to the coronation of the King
of Nepal (last hindu raja at the time) whom he initiated -- (and a lot
of the court I believe). Do you know how this 74 mass initiations tied
in to his 72 visit? Did the king invite him in 74 to do it? Did the
king publicly endorse tm at the time?
At about the same time, maybe fall of 74, the leading paper in Manila
was running five straight-days of large front page articles on TM.
Asia was quite "lively" in this period.
And in late 74, M. inagurated the "air-conditioner" project for China
-- to set up large scale initiations and TTCs in Phillipines, Taiwan,
Hong Kong, Thailand, etc. to cool off China -- to prevent a new
revolution in China. (Which clearly worked as predicted. :) ) MMY said
that for the younger generations China to go through a third major
revolution is so few years would make them irreparably harsh and rigid.
