A community portal about The Beatles with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Beatles were a highly influential English rock band from Liverpool, Merseyside, England. They are the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful popular music band in history. The innovative music and style of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr helped to define the 1960s, and they continue to be held in high regard for their artistic achievements, their huge commercial success, their role in the history of popular music, and their contributions to popular culture. Although their initial musical style was rooted in the sounds of 1950s rock and roll, the group explored a great variety of genres, ranging from Tin Pan Alley to psychedelic rock.

If you haven't heard by now, Director David Lynch is making a documentary based on the life and work of the late Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (who passed away in February 2008).

There are many videos online but this makes the most sense to me. Here's David Lynch speaking to students at a Maharishi University. The yogi spent his life teaching meditation and setting up centers of education to incorporate it. Mr. Lynch now has a foundation ... Read Full Story
