This paper is a further development of complex methods in harmonic analysis on semi-simple Lie groups [AG], [BeR], [KrS1,2]. We study the growth behaviour of the holomorphic extension of the orbit map of the spherical vector of an irreducible spherical representation of a real reductive group G when approaching the boundary of the crown domain of the Riemannian symmetric space G/K. As an application, we prove that Maaß cusp forms have exponential decay.
