this is also true, vaj as reported by an Irish website: http://www.tm-ireland.org/news.htm Paul McCartney on Maharishi Former Beatle Paul McCartney was the guest on The Charlie Rose Show on PBS [US public broadcasting system] on Monday June 11, 2001. The interview lasted 55 min. Charlie Rose's last question was "What do you look forward to at this stage in your life?" Paul answered that he looked forward to enjoying life. He shifted immediately into talking about meditation and Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, speaking of the value of the balancing and centering effects of Transcendental Meditation --"it's always something you can come back to". He spoke of how nice it was being with Maharishi in India in the 60's, saying that Maharishi was the real thing, and that a lot of teachers or gurus of that time were going around in Rolls Royces, with actresses, but that Maharishi had done none of that. He added that before the Beatles left India, Maharishi gave them signed copies of his book [probably "The Science of Being and the Art of Living"], which Paul indicated was full of wisdom. Paul spoke of his interest in seeing what Maharishi had written "Radiate bliss consciousness. ENJOY." Paul spoke of how important it was to enjoy one's life, and of his trip to see Maharishi in Holland about 18 months ago. He said Maharishi is now in his 80's, still working, and very vital and lively. Paul's two children accompanied him. Before going in, they were told that it wasn't possible to know how long the meeting would last--it might be short if Maharishi was tired. The meeting lasted over 4 hours. Paul's daughter asked him if she could shoot some video; Maharishi said of course it was okay. Paul's daughter took the camera, and asked: "What do you have to say to the camera, Maharishi?" He laughed and said, "ENJOY!" Paul's comment on this to Charlie Rose was "Very consistent after 30 years!". http://www.tm-ireland.org/news.htm To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
