Cynthia,

yes, you are right about Rawat not being all that popular these days. I live on the east coast, and the there is only a handful of the Elan Vital devotees, premies.  I now feel bad for them because I see how they have to finance Rawat's lifestyle, and also prop up his "events" with their donations.  It seems that if ever Mr. M. should come to the USA, it is usually in California, or maybe Florida.  The handful of premies have to travel to these locations to clap hands who Mr. M. and make it look like the audience is all locals in the area (at a university --- if every premie in the US attends, and then they can get some people to sit in on the event to fill seats, it gives the appearance the Mr. M. draws crowds at each city.... but this is a deception). 

Mr. M.'s cult is becoming a flop in the world of cults.  I wonder how much longer EV will have any kind of a presence in the the United States?   I wonder how such a small group of premies in the USA can finance Rawat for his mansion/lifestyle/propping up of events?
