Good vibes at the Beatles Ashram in Rishikesh, India

“Life is not a struggle, not a tension...
Life is bliss.
It is eternal wisdom,
eternal existence”
-Maharishi Mahesh Yogi on the philosophy of life

I visited Chaurasi Kutiya today, where a half century ago the Beatles came and studied with Maharishi who taught Transcendental Meditation to seekers from all over the world. The place is magical, romantic, and peaceful... the buildings are abandoned and covered with inspired graffiti... there is lush greenery and a deep silence surrounding the area. It wasn’t easy to get to, I walked far and went alone but it was well worth it. There were others that were traveling solo as well and we took turns taking photos for each other which was nice. I also had a great conversation about spirituality and was asked for a kiss from a guy much younger than myself. His line was that he believed this experience was too intense to not share the intimacy with a stranger. I had to admit it was pretty smooth but I didn’t bite... not this time. 😉❤️
