I was just thinking, that because everything these days is judged on how much 'it' grossed...whether it be a movie, or record or whatever; the stock market and all that; oil and commodities...
Let's see who has been the most successful spiritual teachers; according to the same standard; since everyone seems to be adverse to how much Maharishi has been charging; and how much he's worth, etc...
So, I'll just make a list, kind of based on my intuition:
1. Has to be Jesus; and the land holding of churches throughout the world, the untold real estate of the Vatican, the priceless paintings...he's way out front; kind of like the Bill Gates of the spiritual world.
2.Mohammad I guess would be second, in terms also of real estate holdings and the countries which follow his teachings and of course  the oil.
3.Buddha would be third; again because of real estate holdings; although the Buddhists tend to low key, and not so into the money?
4.Maharishi Maheshi Yogi, would be fourth on this list, unless anyone would want to do further research on this subject; from what has been mentioned on this site in real estate holdings, and other investments...he's definitely in the running, in any case...
In any case, I think we should look into what has made these other teachers so successful in attracting financial backing for their projects, and follow their example, maybe...
