I also believe he did the forward in one of the Gita's published by the Hare Krishna's which is where I believe he first started his inquiry into Eastern thought...that is after the Maharisha Mehesh Yogi (sp) way back when he was still a Beatle. And, of course he and Ravi Shankar were very close. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 Namaste Ravi Shankar gave him two books to introduce Indian spirituality and one was Autobiography of Yogi by Paramahamsa Yogananda and the other was Raja Yoga by Swami Vivekananda. > > FREESUE [sMTP:FREESUE] > Monday, December 03, 2001 11:49 AM > Ramakrishna > Re: Fw: [sri Ramakrishna] my tribute to Sir George > > In a message dated 01-12-02 05:36:28 EST, vivekananda > writes: > > << One of my colleagues who knows a lot about Sir George said he was > a great believer in the Vedantic ideals.
