Marolyn Rawat's Malibu Beach Cottage
In May 2010 a search of the internet revealed that the President of the Prem Rawat Foundation, Linda Pascotto (nee Haldan, a "trust-fund baby") was the Manager of Prime Pacific Shoreline Realty (PPSR = Prem Pal Singh Rawat), a Delaware company also registered in California at 31334 Anacapa View Dr, Malibu which is the home of the Lord of the Universe (retired), a man who has lived off donations and gifts all his life, Mr Prem Pal Singh Rawat Himself.
This Delaware company owned a Pacific Ocean beach-side property not far from Prem Rawat's main Malibu mansion. The address of this property is 32440 Pacific Coast Highway. Other officers of this company are known to be long-time, inner circle "students" of Prem Rawat's. "Jasper" is a former premie who had done service for decades both at the Residence in Malibu and as a chauffeur to Rawat himself and he revealed that this home had been purchased around 2003 and set up as a second home and retreat for Rawat's wife.
"By 2003, there seemed to be some kind of special arrangement going on between them. Rawat had bought the beach house, which was perched up on a cliff with a beautiful view of the ocean and only about two miles from the main residence. It was clearly being set up as a private retreat for Marolyn. In sharp contrast to his typical obsessive control and domination over any and every decision, Rawat had allowed her to fix it up however she wanted. Marolyn gave me a tour of the inside of the house, which she had decorated by herself in her own distinct style. She was careful to point out every piece of furniture and explain in great detail how she had acquired it, always followed by a detailed description of how little each item had cost. Some of these pieces had been hand made by premies as gifts and she went to extreme lengths to express who had made it and how grateful she was for their generosity and kindness.
The feeling I got was that this was her own special place and although she knew it was all paid for with premies money and hard work, she had been frugal in spending and had not wasted any of that money. She was also sincerely thankful for the gifts and donations and really appreciated each premie's personal effort. Telling me all of this seemed to relieve some of her guilt about how it had been acquired. Somehow she seemed to want me to understand that her way of doing things was different and in sharp contrast to Rawat's. While he would flagrantly waste premie's money with his extravagant spending habits, when left to make her own decisions, her style tended towards being more conservative and minimalist, while not compromising on quality.
Marolyn and I spent several days together at her beach house cleaning up and landscaping the yard, which had been neglected for years. She was one of the hardest workers I have ever met and always treated me with kindness and respect. Once when we broke for lunch she asked me to sit down at the patio dining table and relax while she made me one of the best tuna salad sandwiches I ever had. As the perfect hostess I found her to be, she served it to me with the utmost courtesy while she patiently stood by until I was finished. Then we went back out to work in the yard. She really enjoyed gardening and landscaping, and seemed to find great reward in creating natural beauty by planting and caring for flowers, shrubs, and trees.
As of 2020 the estimated value of the house was over $US6 million.
Not bad for a fat boy from Haridwar.
