00:20Mid-February
00:26The Beatles, all four of them, with their wives or girlfriends
00:29and Mia Farrow, Frank Sinatra's wife
00:32and Donovan, another idol of English teenagers
00:36and the famous Californian group the Beach Boys
00:39They went to India to meditate with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
00:55Then Ringo and Mia Farrow left
00:58but the others are still there, in Ritchie Cash, in the Himalayas
01:03We went to visit them when they were all there.
01:06and we'll tell you the story
01:08It's a story with some unanswered questions.
01:11and some small doubts about the new world of the Beatles
01:14but on the other hand it contains two new songs
01:22The tigers are not visible in the video
01:24but at night you could hear the roar in the forest
01:28unless it was another good idea from the impeccable organization
01:45The video does not show the impeccable organization
02:19The journey begins on the outskirts of Bombay, the gateway to India
02:26We imagined that the Beatles and all the other famous pilgrims of the Himalayas
02:31they landed here
02:33and that for example they continued by train
02:36and then on the only available road towards the slopes of Tibet
02:57This is how you cross India from one end to the other.
03:00and avoids reaching the place of spiritual regeneration
03:04straight from the beaches of California
03:06and from the cheerful windows of Cannabis Street
03:09and crosses India from another good
03:39As they used to say
03:40seeing the world is good for you
03:42it helps to know how others live
03:45that year makes
03:46What is the meaning of a day or a year of their life?
03:49a life without press agents
03:51and without contracts and commitments and obsessive deadlines
04:21first you can take the frighteningly crowded trains
04:24that go up to the north
04:25and from the trains you see thousands of villages
04:28and millions of faces that are hard to forget
04:30for how they look at you, for how they live
04:47Then the journey continues along the only small road
04:50which goes towards Tibet
04:51and it can happen that you get stuck
04:53between one area and another for the necessary checks
04:57What we are going through
04:58It is a territory north of Meirut
05:00where there was, or was feared, or had just been
05:04a cholera epidemic
05:22The sacred area of India
05:24It is at the foot of the Himalayas
05:26This has always been the case throughout the centuries
05:28the place of purification
05:30of meditation
05:32of the holy men of India
05:37It is said that the monks in prayer
05:39they raised their heads in annoyance
05:42disapproving the arrival of new visitors
05:45because the Beatles came from heaven
05:48and not in a spiritual sense
05:50but by helicopter
05:51jumping into it directly from the jet
05:54and they got lost
05:55unfortunately for their experience
05:58the rest of the trip
06:05Like in adventure books
06:07there is only a rope bridge
06:09suspended over the Ganges Valley
06:10to reach the slopes of the Himalayas
06:14Follow the monks who wear orange robes
06:16the pilgrim's staff
06:18and you can't go wrong
06:19they don't go to the Beatles
06:22and from the Beach Boys of course
06:24they go to other convents
06:26real convents
06:27that have existed on these mountains for centuries
06:30the convents
06:31they are called Ashram
06:45Richie Keshe's Ashram
06:47now famous
06:48on the front pages
06:49of all the newspapers in the world
06:50It is distinct from the Hindu tradition
06:53first of all for the gates
06:55sturdy gates
06:56closed by chains
06:57and protected by guardians
07:02as if to say that the pilgrim
07:03who climbs the mountain
07:05following a dream
07:06or an inner revelation
07:08he is right to continue
07:14here
07:15the rooms have hot water
07:17soft cashmere rugs
07:20bath and shower
07:21and they are all booked
07:23from New York and London
07:25if you have patience
07:27and you stop at the gate
07:28you can also see from afar
07:29some glimpses of meditation
07:32you can catch for a moment
07:34Ringo's image
07:35the Beatles drummer
07:37coming out of a small temple
07:39with the Maharishi
07:40after a private meditation
07:42you can see George Harrison
07:44another Beatle
07:45who walks beyond the gate
07:49or Mia Farrow
07:50alone and thoughtful
07:52who looks at the Ganges
07:54in the morning as soon as you get up
08:03but if you are expected
08:05Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
08:07spiritual head of the ashram
08:09and master of the Beatles
08:10will come to receive you
08:12and the gate will open
08:14for this unusual visit
08:33so our day begins
08:35in the ashram
08:36guests of the Maharishi
08:38on the door you see the shoes
08:40that the faithful must remove
08:42before entering
08:43and on the door
08:44they keep watch in turns
08:45two Americans
08:46who are among his friends
08:47more faithful
08:48what you see now
08:50he is the vice president
08:51of a large factory
08:52of airplanes
09:13here is the meditation room
09:15this is for pilgrims
09:19normal
09:20Indians or young Westerners
09:22not famous
09:23then little by little
09:24we will level up
09:25and of degree
09:26even on a spiritual level
09:28we are told
09:32Maharishi explains
09:34to a group of participants
09:35the most basic techniques
09:36of his method
09:37of meditation
09:47one thing must be said
09:49Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
09:51has the merit
09:52to put the cards on the table
09:53he is an optimistic man
09:55well organized
09:56who believes in economic success
09:58there is no need here
09:59to take a stand
10:00or to make choices
10:02on peace, war
10:03and general ideas about the world
10:06mine says
10:07it's a method
10:09a simple method
10:12I teach how to meditate
10:14as others teach
10:15the breathing technique
10:17or muscle control
10:19in this way
10:21It seems that the Maharishi
10:22has restored serenity
10:24to a certain number of people
10:26of adequate social level
10:27overloaded as is natural
10:29from a proportionate load
10:31of nagging thoughts
10:36as an example
10:37Maharishi tells
10:39this story
10:40once upon a time
10:42the manager
10:43of a large company
10:44who had complicated
10:46production problems
10:50following my method
10:51he taught
10:52to all employees
10:54to meditate
10:55and the production
10:56has increased
10:57isn't that a good result?
10:59it is a practical philosophy
11:03of action
11:19second experiment
11:20meditation and discussion
11:22highest level
11:23this morning they participate
11:25Donovan
11:26the young English singer
11:28and Mia Farrow
11:29with his younger brother John
11:31he too recently converted
11:32to meditation techniques
11:34and Michael
11:35the leader of the famous complex
11:37Californian

11:42and some German ladies

12:47Thank you, Gurudev.
12:58Do you take my flower?
13:03What is it?
13:04Look at that one.
13:26How have I been in meditation this morning?
13:30Great.
13:32Something good about it?
13:39Now the Maharishi speaks about the problem of young people.
13:43His innate optimism, the sun and the splendid morning on the Ganges, suggest to him that the rebellion of the young, the
13:52their tension, the rejection of the world as it is and the search for new things,
13:57Everything can be solved here at Richie Cash's school according to his method.
14:12Mia listens thoughtfully and uncertainly and in a few days she will leave.
14:18California business leaders.
14:20Californian business executives with their wives in Sahara, on the other hand, have no doubts.
14:24They seem confident that they have purified themselves.
14:38And Donovan has prepared a song for his new teacher, then there will be the morning meditation.
14:46His reto is no role of Vigia's love, in which one can be conjugated to do only of the
15:02'love of love.

26:06Music
26:26So here they are, the Beatles and the Ganges together,
26:29the great places of Indian history and a few songs.
26:35The result is a beautiful holiday.
26:37Not a meditation.
26:39But the Beatles are intelligent and once rested and with a fresh mind,
26:45they will certainly find other opportunities.
26:58Music
27:04Music
27:05Yes!
