George Harrison's Inner Light

Without going out of my door
I can know all things on earth
Without looking out of my window
I could know the ways of heaven

The farther one travels
The less one knows
The less one really knows

Without going out of your door
You can know all things on earth
Without looking out of your window
You can know the ways of heaven

Arrive without travelling
See all without looking
Do all without doing

in loving memory of George Harrison
the "Dark Horse" who helped so many to see the Light
1943-2001

"Meditation helps you find fulfillment in life, helps you live life to the full"
George

"After having... so much success in The Beatles and realizing that this wasn't the answer to everything, the question came... What's it all about? And then, purely because of the force-fed LSD experience, I had the realization of God... [After] I had read enough from the Vivekenandas and Yoganandas to comprehend how to see God: by using the Yogic system of transcending through relative states of consciousness (waking, sleeping, dreaming) to get the most subtle level of pure consciousness. It is in that level that the individual experiences pure awareness, pure consciousness, the source of all being. We said it in Tomarrow Never Knows"

"If we'd met the Maharishi before we had taken LSD we wouldn't have needed to take it." - John Lennon

We were talking about the space between us all,
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion.
Never glimpse the truth; then it's far too late, when they pass away.
We were talking about the love we all could share,
When we find it to try our best to hold it there with our love,
With our love we could save the world; if they only knew.
Try to realise it's all within yourself; no one else can make you change.
And to see you're really only very small, and life flows on within you and without you.
We were talking about the love that's gone so cold,
And the people who gain the world and lose their soul,
They don't know, they can't see. Are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself then you may find peace of mind is waiting there.
And the time will come when you see we're all one & life flows on within you & without you.
"There's high, and there's high,
and to get really high -- I mean so high that you can walk on the water,
that high -- that's where I'm goin'"

Books about George Harrison

Here Comes the Sun : The Spiritual and Musical Journey of George Harrison
by Joshua M. Greene

Just published (January, 2006) there's finally a book that explores George's spiritual quest and how his mystical evolution influenced his music and his life, written by a friend who knew George well. Out of the insanity, claustrophobia and estrangement that came with being a member of the Beatles, Harrison emerged an affected man, in search of God and peace. Mr. Greene portrays his friend as introspective and modest, inspired by an experience with LSD ("From that moment on, I wanted to have that depth and clarity of perception," Harrison told Rolling Stone.) Harrison reached beyond intoxicants into the bliss of yoga and cosmic chants, a buzz that took him "into the astral plane." He wanted others to share his contact with the mystical and some of his best music was inspired by his spiritual beliefs. Though he spent considerable time exploring the Hindu religion, writes Greene, the musician was a restless quester, always looking for ways to put his spiritual house in order. Greene writes of a newfound "levelheaded dispassion" as Harrison moved into his sixth decade, a sense of liberation from the material world coupled with an affirmation of nature and a personal recognition of his place in the scheme of things. Greene presents a man deeply engaged in the world he longed to transcend.
