MMY lived in a million dollar house at
Rishikesh?
Spair,check my post regarding this. I saw the ashram in
Rishikesh and stayed there about two weeks in October and November of '73. While
the place was run down then, there was not that much to it. Not
many completed buildings a few uncompleted and cheaply made. It would have
been nice enough for what it was needed for back then but nothing
fancy.
