wheeew.

for a minute I thought Ravi Shankar died.

He didn't die. He has passed on to a higher realm of existence.

Time to play the Magical Mystery Tour.

I guess he got his. However big he thought he wa-a-as.... Maharishi. He's the latest. And the greatest. Of them all.

Wasn't Dear Prudence written about Mia's sister & about how she wouldn't come out of meditation cause she was trying to reach a higher plane of some sorts while everyone was taking a break from meditation?

gmku · 02.07.2008, 05:02 PM

I hadn't heard that, but it could be. Of course, everybody knows Sexy Sadie was about the Maharishi and Lennon's disillusionment with him.

Disgruntled Youth · 02.07.2008, 05:05 PM

Yeah I think I read about that in a bookk plus I might have seen a documentry where they talked about how she would just lock herself in her room for hours hence the line won't you come out to play...

gmku · 02.07.2008, 05:09 PM

At least she was pursuing something meaningful. Or thought she was. Can you imagine Britney or Paris or any of today's pretty celebs even considering taking on something like TM or enlightenment!

Celebs and their siblings used to be a lot more interesting.

Disgruntled Youth · 02.07.2008, 05:20 PM

yes indeed, oh how times have changed.

Disgruntled Youth · 02.07.2008, 05:22 PM

Oh I also think Prudence eventually went insane, I'm not to shure about that though...
