I just posted a color photo of MMY with the Beatles in the photos section of this group. Is someone able to identify the book that is on the floor next to each of the four Beatles? If so, please write to me at nata...@zahav.net.il
I am enclosing this picture towards the year's anniversary of the NASA broadcast, Feb. 4, 2008, of the Beatles' song "Across the Universe" across the galaxy to Polaris, the North Star, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the song. Is it indeed pure coincidence that Maharishi passed away the next day, Feb. 5, 2008? Jai guru deva om, is the link to the chorus. Questions: Why did John Lennon add "a" to Jai Guru Dev? How much did MMY really influence the Beatles in their production of "White Album"? Here is the first stanza of "Across The Universe" lyrics: Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup They slither while they pass They slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting thorough my open mind Possessing and caressing me Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Nothing's gonna change my world Thank you, Natan
