It's part of a longer quotation that's published in some book. It might be in "The Maharishi." The circumstance was Maharishi having overworked himself and having fallen sick, pneumonia I believe it was. I think the rest of the quotation has him saying that he wasn't proving to be a very good example of how to take care of one's own health. I find it interesting that this part of the quotation has survived and is often quoted, but the rest of it is generally removed.
