How much money do you have, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi? January 24, 1985, Washington, D.C.

How much money do you have, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi? January 24, 1985, Washington, D.C.

Reporter: Maharishi, do you think that the press understands you? Do you think the public understands you? Are you sometimes confused as being associated with the Hari Krishna group?

That depends upon the press, how the press portrays me in public. I can be associated with any group because I have something of myself in every group. That portion which does good to the people, I am there in that group. [Laughing] With the Unified Field message I am absolutely associated with everything.

Reporter: Could you tell me a little bit about how much your movement's holdings are worth? And what is that money used for?

Maharishi: Wealth is not so limited as to be held within some small range. My holdings are ranging to infinity. The Unified Field's holding. Absolutely all the banks belong to this holding. I can draw any amount from any bank from any part of the world--that is my holding. And I'll give you the secret of that holding. Banks are there all over the world in order to give money; and by giving, they make money. If they give me money, they'll give me through a channel which will give them money. I have a the whole program of establishing these, what you call it, prevention centers. Healthy people want to be healthy and here is a program for them.
