Many of us felt the same. Maybe it's a season when impure vibes don't affect the ashram, and criminal eyes and activities are tolerated for the sake of proselyting. "Shudras" are accepted and looked well after. Sure, this created a lot of waste thought in BKs, and students that patiently complied with the rules and waited for their turn to visit MB.
Even more serious breaking of rules; guests attend classes without having received any training, or even The Course, end up listening to Murli channelling live and meet the Spook. Its a real circus.
Another aspect is that BKs who accompany VIPs there are "more special" souls. PR. They have a better chance to get their airfare paid (even by the VIPs since they become tourist guides). Strengthening these connections that can be useful later on, especially for Baba's box ("we had a wooonderful experience!!!"), and various facilities. It's a good way to enjoy (if that's enjoyable!) an extra trip to Madhuban, going twice during the season and meet equal PRs. And if fed up with the "tourist guide role", to abandon the unfortunate and cranky, spoilt VIP to his destiny!!
Well, when needed and at later date, such an experiences can become item for a C/V, " I once was a tourist guide for the BKs" ...
