Beatles Video - Tribute to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
This Tuesday saw the passing of The Beatles’ transcendental meditation guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Perhaps he travelled along with the Beatles song "Across the Universe" as it was beamed towards deep space by NASA on the same day (the song refers to the Maharishi). Here are some videos featuring The Beatles, their music, and the Maharishi. Jai guru deva OM.

The scriptures of all religions inspire us to live in peace, love and harmony, etc.. Nevertheless, people are doing unspeakable things to others and to themselves.
Medical advice all over the world is to develop healthy habits, quit smoking, quit alcohol, etc.. Nevertheless, people are stuck in bad habits, taking that next cigaret; that next drink.
Reading something, hearing about it, is helpful. But, how to do it; how to change for the better?
Discipline? Iron will power? Who has it?
What blocks those who want to change? Spiritually, lack of experience of the true silent Self within, the Self of everyone, existing in quiet bliss; on the side of the body, a body structured by stress, fatigue and unhealthy habits, which cannot of itself support the great intentions for betterment.
The man is stuck. A tragedy of life known for many centuries in the lives of billions.
Here comes someone who has taken the essence of eternal universal Knowledge, and says
Come, do this, no matter what your background or your style of living;
atheist? Fine.; priest? Fine.; criminal? Fine.; judge? Fine. Do this TM morning and evening, such a simple thing, and you’ll see what happens.
A simple technique, some simple knowledge, applicable and understandable for all. Why? Because it concerns their own essential nature. They do it and experience, spiritually, the deep Truth of their own Self; bodily, rest, deep rest.
Then the restoration begins: understanding of Self and the Divine; care of the body, everything starts to blossom. ‘Water the root to enjoy the fruit’. And in the end: I am everything. The world is my family.
Divinity expresses Itself in life on earth.
The man who took the trouble to cross the frontier between the world of the Saints, of Divine Knowledge and Happiness, and the world dominated by ignorance, suffering, injustice, poverty, ‘learned’ bigotry, etc.,
and set the whole world on the course of spiritual and material regeneration and total restoration of all aspects of Vedic Knowledge, was Bal Brahmachary Mahesh. Because he knew his Master had given him the solution. For everyone. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi went on, day and night, tirelessly working for 52 years for the Enlightenment of mankind.
I would say, ‘His Divinity Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’, Karunavatar, who will continue to bless us with His guidance.
Jai Guru Dev
