In recent weeks a Facebook group has erupted in discussions about Maharishi’s private life. Was he a monk like he said he was? Did he have girlfriends like some say? Was he celibate or did he have sex? As many know these kinds of rumors have plagued the TM movement for decades. However, in recent months the rumors again resurfaced in several Facebook groups.
In the current cycle of rumors, some things have changed. There is evidence about Maharishi’s sexual life even beyond Judith Bourque’s book “Robes of Silk Feet of Clay “. See a previous RajaLeaks article for a review of that truthful woman’s book about her romantic affair with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. That book rearranged a lot of meditating brains and many have come to realize Maharishi had girlfriends and was sexually active.
This may come as a shock to many,
Maharishi seems to have had MANY women,
allegedly 16 and counting!
A group of TM teachers led by a former National Leader have taken up the task to find out what went on and ending these rumors once and for all. Their attitude was that the rumors should be put aside and evidence should be compiled to replace the rumors. Better to know the truth, instead of hearing the rumors. To that effect, they have set up a committee to investigate the events of sexual misbehavior or sexual approaches by Maharishi. Through telephone discussions and rumor unwinding a trail of sexual conduct by Maharishi was found. Several women who had an affair or were sexually approached by Maharishi were interviewed by telephone. At least two “skin boys” were contacted to find out what they saw. The skin boys were those men who carried Maharishi’s dear skin to the lecture halls so that Maharishi could sit on it. They were close to Maharishi and often were also “door watchers” who would sit in front of Maharishi’s door. They were in a position to see things other course participants could not see. After months of discussion, the committee found evidence for the aforementioned behavior, and the documentation process has begun.

…
Byran Lee the former National Leader of New Zealand, who organized one of the most successful TM organizations in the world is leading this investigation. He states on Facebook the following.
Here are the reasons we are investigating:
- To protect future generations of youth from abusive gurus.
- To ensure that what was real about Maharishi‘s teachings (which evidently he got from the Dandi Swamis) is separated out from his own “cognitions“ which may need to be reevaluated in the light of these revelations.
- Because it raises questions about the ethics of the inner core of the current organisation with their absolute resistance to financial transparency, codes of ethics, and whistleblower protections.
Yes, we would all like to see TM promulgated around the world, but the present administration of the organisation does not appear to me to have anything like the competence or integrity to do so. Indications are that we need to clean out the Augean stables.
So far the committee has taken witness testimony from two women who have been recorded on a Zoom call. These exceedingly brave and stable women have come out with their stories. It was clear to the listeners who were about 20 people, that Maharishi was not celibate at all. A former skin-boy also attended the meeting and one other skin-boy could not attend due to scheduling but is in contact with the group. One woman in the Zoom call also reported that she felt Maharishi was romantically approaching her, but nothing happened due to her alertness.
The video of the Zoom call has been edited and shortened and it will be available for download soon. Someone leaked the video link to RajaLeaks, but currently, the link does not work. We hear the video will go live soon. The link will be posted here when it goes live. We will only post the link when we know for sure that it can go public. We kindly ask our readers NOT to contact these women with complaints or negativity. It’s a delicate situation, a matter of heart and soul. Please be nice to them.
It seems Maharishi also has a daughter and a son who are living their lives in the United States. Our information leaker has seen a photo of the daughter, but will not reveal any information about her. It seems Maharishi also had a 3rd child, who died very young. We pray and hope Maharishi’s two children can live a happy and fulfilled life without being approached by curious meditators. Therefore we will not reveal any information except that it seems to be true. Yes, Maharishi does have children!
The Facebook Group TM: Next Generation has been hot with a discussion about these revelations for weeks now. Some people are doubtful of this information, others are 100% sure it’s true. This brings up important questions. Who were the TM Movement people the knew these things, but kept it secret for decades from the other TM teachers? These were enablers who deceived us. Why did they do that? Were they told to keep it secret by Maharishi? Or was it just fanatical cult behavior?
This looks bad, really bad, because we believed Maharishi, we believed everything he said. Many people joined Purusha and Mother Divine believing in his holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi the celibate spiritual master. I know individuals who ruined their lives by going in the direction Maharishi was going in, and now I found out Maharishi wasn’t even going that way. The TM Movement was like an amusement park with a fun house of mirrors, and many got lost in that house.

…
When you add the alleged financial discrepancies and lack of transparency, the crazy and unethical behavior of the rajas, the offshore accounts, and the aggressive takeover of the old TM Movement by the Raja Kingdom, and then an ad in Maharishi’s behavior we get a big pile of manure. If we want something better, to raise the collective consciousness of the world. We have to sweep out of the barn before we can turn it into a house of knowledge again. There are dharmic and karmic considerations. There are moral and ethical questions. There are serious legal and financial questions. It will take time to deal with all of these.
I applaud Brian Lee and his group for beginning the process. Their group has begun to shovel the manure out. It’s not just Maharishi’s hypocrisy about his sexual life, and his relative’s source of wealth, it’s more about the complex relationship between truth and lies and what kind of characters and personalities were involved in all this.
We need a BIG CLEANUP IN THE HOUSE OF TM.
