August 24, 1967 –
Encouraged by Pattie Harrison, The Beatles and their partners – minus Ringo and Maureen Starkey, whose second child, Jason, had been born just five days earlier -attended a lecture by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi at the Hilton Hotel on Park Lane, London, on this date.
This was a highly creative period for The Beatles. They wrote many songs, most of which were later included on their self-titled 1968 album, commonly known as the White Album. Ultimately, their association with the Maharishi ended abruptly after rumors surfaced of his inappropriate behavior with female devotees. John Lennon later expressed disappointment, stating that they had been mistaken about the Maharishi’s integrity.
