211: Meeting Paul Saltzman in India

It was in 1968 that a young Canadian filmmaker, seeking solace in TM for a broken heart, was befriended by The Beatles in Rishikesh during their immersive study with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. In 2000, Paul Saltzman published his wonderfully immediate photos in a book (The Beatles in Rishikesh), later augmented and re-published as The Beatles in India in 2018. 2020 saw the release of his documentary, Meeting The Beatles in India - a film that brings together others who were there (Pattie and Jenny Boyd) as well as the real "Bungalow Bill," Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn and filmmaker David Lynch, a major booster of TM.  You can check out Paul's website here, and see the film as well as participate in a Q&A with Paul at the first Fab4ConJam on February 21, 2021.  Details: fab4conjam.com    Learn more about your ad choices.
