Highlights
  • The Beatles Ashram - In February 1968, The Beatles followed the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi to India to stay in his Rishikesh ashram (now known as The Beatles Ashram, Rishikesh). They wrote dozens of songs while in Rishikesh, including much of the White Album. It was a very big deal at the time, very significant, that the four most famous and successful pop music stars in the world would drop out for three months to study meditation in India..

Additional Information

The Beatles’ Ashram offers a structured guide for individuals on their own spiritual journey - a visit Beach Boys vocalist Mike Love will always remember vividly. He reminisces that this location in India is still a popular spot for music enthusiasts and meditation practitioners. It’s there you’ll find the meditation Hall where daily discussions of Vedic philosophy were conducted by Maharishi, both afternoon and evening.

The intriguing banyan tree where Maharishi Chaurasi Kutiya is located is a sight to behold. The Beatles Ashram houses 84 structures where Maharishi Yogi disseminated lessons in transcendental meditation.

The campus boasts several purpose-built structures. These encompass the kitchen area designated for feast preparations, the Maharshi Bungalow designed to house VIP visitors, the Post Office, Printing Office, and the lead Hall.

A spiritual experience and return to 1968 😎 - Thank you Om for a most interesting and informative morning. I was privileged to have you to myself and will think about the many things you said. The book I showed you, ‘ Before Abbey Road there was Teme Street’ was all about the way in which following a pop group in England sixty years ago led me to many new experiences and enriched my knowledge on a very wide range of subjects. Today was the latest. All I need is love!
