Jim,

Thank you for your courteous reply.  You are right that the number of event attendees has decreased. (in the West).  What I meant to say to Babaluji was that his views on his financial and career struggles are all due to his time with Maharaji does not represent everyone,( instead of  the majority).  I do not know of statistical figures of people who received k or attend events, but do know quite a few people, both exes and premies who have moved forward in their life without blame.  There may be a silent majority out there or a vocal minority. I do not know. Yes, there is a real person  in here, just as there is one in you.  ciao.
