Today is the day and over 2,370 people have now registered from 58 countries, with over half choosing to stay onsite and the event starts at 5pm with gates opening at 4pm and buses start arriving at 11:30am. It is now 9:21am in the East Coast of Australia and the weather is wonderful but getting hotter every hour.

Yesterday temperatures peaked at 36 degrees though it is forecast to top out at 28 degrees today. I get coastal breezes where I live and it seemed much hotter than 36 yesterday though that may be because of it rising so high so early in the season.

This year there will be Intelligent Dining at Dayas.

2370 is 18 people down on last year (RIP) and about half of the peak years 10 years ago. I think these figures only represent what has happened to what I might call the "Western premies." Propagation has been a failure in the West since 1974 and died for good in 1984 but the financial clout of those USA/Euro PWiKs has probably had some success in less sophisticated areas - if such still exist. At least that's where Rawat seems to have been making an effort.

In 2025 Ivory's Rock Foundation had revenue of $5,791,696 down slightly less than $1million and profit of $1,098,498 down around $500,00 from 2024.

No matter how jazzed up the premies are from their "I Am Going To Amaroo" reels and Tik-Tok and Facebook posts, revenue and profit should be down slightly from last year unless there's a lot of "this might be my last Amaroo trip" splurging.

For myself, my physician has indicated I could still live long enough to see Rawat die (though not in those words). I probably owe my good fortune to those 30 years of strict vegetarianism and another 20 or mostly vegetarianism. I'd like to see the ending of this cult just to see how it ends: with a whimper I presume.

I was wondering about a lot of this. The numbers etc. 

For anyone who is not on social media they are asking followers to post #goingtoamaroo and #premrawat and send to them. They posted one with two children dancing in what looks like their living room to his AI tune Going to Amaroo which is cowboy themed. Premies square dancing to it in what looks like a hall but the premies are mostly looking like their grandkids came for a visit at the senior living home. Some Indian looking reels one can actually dance pretty well. 

I have to wonder how all the musicians feel about the AI music. Over his lordship Prem Rawat has benefitted so much from the talent of the premie musicians. To me, the AI tunes seem like such an insult to the talented musicians who gave him so much. One on social media admits it annoys him. But he's been pretty wishy washy over the years. 

I am glad for your longevity PremBio and would like to read your reports on the whimper assuming I too make it to that day.
