Rumor has it that the plastic case around it was cracked and it is being repaired.

I saw what looked to be an email from PP stating “the urn has been removed at the family’s decision.” Nothing about it being repaired but that could be the case.

Really?? Oh wow. I wonder why?

There are no rumours. The family just wanted to remove it for whatever reason, it is their business and we must respect that.

I haven't heard any reason why, but there are some people out there going nuts over it and doing stupid petitions. Always gotta over-react every time something happens. It's tiresome. I remember when the urn first showed up and all the outrage over it

PurpleDorothy, Prince's spirit is everywhere now, you can pay your respects to him anyplace and every place, it doesn't have to be only at PP. Go and enjoy your trip. Since we don't know why they took it out, there's no telling if it will be back just as quickly.

Yes, there are rumors...


At this point do we even know that they have been removed? Maybe that's just a rumor?

Probably was made out of the same plastic the Crystal Ball package was made of
But seriously, was the urn within reach of fans to touch because that;'s how you break something when some of these creepy and stalkery fanatics try to touch or even steal that thing.
Or maybe they jsut scattered the ashes.

I'd read what you'd commented earlier in a couple of FB groups, that there was a crack seen in the plastic surrounding the urn, it was said then that it may have started where screws were used on the plastic. I've never seen this in person so I have no idea if that could be true or not so it's possible I guess. I don't get why someone would put this out there though, saying that they were just "warning" people who might be going to Celebration so they wouldn't freak out when they didn't see the urn there. Way premature with that warning, it's over 2 months out still, repair if needed is possible, and it could be back in place by then. Or maybe the family has something special in mind. Just more of the usual freak-out over every little thing

Yep, that's where I seen it. I still can't find anything that PP has said or where it was said that they've took it down

I wish someone would provide a link, I've searched and searched and I can't find anything.

someone threatened to test the ashes to see if they r real

Is this all we are left with as far as news now?
Yall know some people worship those ashes

If this is true...will they continue doing a moment of silence in the atrium?

Remember when he mentioned years ago in an interview about the film Lucy?

Well maybe he is everywhere (PP, music and any other surroundings we feel a connection/vibration towards)

Even with that realization, I still do wish to see him in the flesh and hear his voice in the present

Rumors are meant to be ignored.

No links seen, doesn't sound like there are any.

It is true. The urn has been removed from the atrium. It wasn't in reach of people, it was displayed above the kitchen doors on the wall. When it first opened as a museum, it was on a pedestal in the center of the atrium encased. It was moved not too long after that. I don't know what the plans are for them, but I do know they are still in Paisley Park.

I can't go to Paisley Park, not yet. I may never go back. I was there at the very first Celebration (2000), right after he took back his given name (Prince). I can still picture him walking through the crowd, hear him clearing his throat at a body guard that was talking to me and a friend, from the other side of the huge concert room and us looking over at him and he's tapping his foot, very mpatiently I might add, see him sitting on top of a small room in the L4OA room, watching every one dance. in the DJ booth, putting on songs. I don't know that I can go back to Paisley, knowing that he's not there physically, because I would keep picturing him every where that I saw him during that first Celebration, and I'm afraid I'd break down, that it would be too much. But then I think that his energy is still there, his presence is still there. That was where he lived, loved, worked, and everything he was (is) went into Paisley Park and his music. I remember the little meditation room on the 2nd floor and not wanting to leave that room (I'm not even sure if it is still there). I don't know. Maybe one day I can go again, go to the Celebration, but I think it's still too soon for me, any way. PurpleDorothy, you should go, if you get the chance, since you've already been. His energy, I'm sure, is still in the entire fiber of that building.

Just to be sure: they are no longer where they were displayed but they are still physically at PP?

Personally, I’m happy it’s been removed. Prince’s whole vibe was about raising our vibration to beyond just the physical. Doesn’t make sense to be preoccupied with his ashes. And that plastic box was tacky anyway. Peace.

That part.

Yes.

This thread is creepy. Sounds like y'all are planning a heist.

I think, it's good when the urn isn't there anymore.

If I ever would be there, I don't want to see the urn...better to keep memories in my head than to watch his urn and knowing, that contains him. horrible

Hmmm. Sounds like an overactive imagination

Who cares? Seriously. Ashes are meaningless.
