  • I wish the Beatles had gotten together before John was shot.

    However, I guess it was not meant to be.

    It is best to remember them for their only years together.

    George Vreeland Hill

  • I read this was a part of the real lyrics of that song..

    Maharishi, what have you done?

    You made a fool of everyone,

    Maharishi, you broke the rules,

    you laid it down for all to see.

    Maharishi, you little twat,

    Who the fuck do you think you are?

    Who the fuck do you think you are?

    Oh you cunt

  • i believe this was recorded @ george  harrison's house in escher , when all the beatles were gathered to rehearse the songs they had written in india .

  • just a gossip or rumour started about maharishi to get the beatles back to recording

    The fact that is that Paul and Ringo still do benefits for maharishi,s movement they would have to be very stupid to do so  and to still believe such gossip i think.

  • George had to feel sad, disappointed and embarrassed as John repeatedly threw body blows at the thing he loved so much.

  • For those arguing: Maharishi fondeld a girl's breasts. Of course if he was a real holy man, he wouldn't do that. John believed that the Trancendental Meditation that Maharishi taught was the religious answer he was looking for. Of course he was heart broken when he found out. So he wrote this song. Now shut up and enjoy the song.

  • @Arithmancer1 I still can't get what's so unholy about sexuality. Unless she was totally not in to it and he was just squeezing away without her consent

  • @stfwho You're missing the point. The Maharishi was a fraud. He preached an aesthetic lifestyle of celibacy but, according to John, chose out women from his ashram to have sex with lavishing them with gifts and privileges for their favors.

  • @Arithmancer1 thanks i didnt know that! : ) man that maharishi was a dirty old man like a pervert catholic priest poor john good he wrote this song i would of been so heart broken too if i trusted someone and thought they were a really good person and turns out they are molesting others thats fucked up.

  • Part 2: "Sexy Saidy" was one of the darkest moments in the Beatles history!

    Later on George (I think it was in 1992) & Paul visited Maharishi in Vlodrop and personally apologized but Maharishi interfered and said: No sorry need I never stopped to love you because I always looked upon you as Angels born on Earth! I am sure you did not know the whole story.

  • Do you happen to know if there is a copy of the song without not overlayed on top of Sexy Sadie? I'd be interested... thanks.

  • Lennon is a so good,and he is intelligent.

    you guys cruse on him are really don't know

    you possessed don't spread love but spread fears

  • apparently the Maharisha made a pass at one of the girls.. but the Beatles later made up with the Maharisha and then later learned of the Maharisha's death while in Bangor, Wales

  • @scyllaandcharybdis maharishi died in 2008 mate 

  • @scyllaandcharybdis nonsense lol

  • @scyllaandcharybdis no, they met him for the first time in London and THEN went to Bangor and learned of Epsteins death whilst there

  • No sexy sadie was about Christine Keeler and John Profumo. John took alot of inspiration from newspaper headlines of the time.

  • @ukfm The actual concept at the beginning for sexy sadie was John's frustration with the Maharishi. His initial version was "Maharishi, what have you done, you made a fool of everyone ... how f***in big you think you are?". It was supposed to be called Maharishi, but the title changed to Sexy Sadie at George's request.

  • i fucking love lennon's voice. just the right amount nasal sound to show his disgust.

  • is this the original version?

  • I love this video ! For sure the beatles were right to change "Maharishi" in "Sexy sadie" it sounds better :)

  • @xxTitanticRocksxx like Kissinger says to Mao when Mao asks him how a fat guy like Henry gets so many women "power iz ze ultimate aphrodisiac".

  • lol Magic Alex started the whole thing XD

  • TM derives from techniques described in the ancient texts of Hinduism, TM is a Hindu Religious practice and this fact is concealed from the public in a deliberately deceptive fashion. If there would have been the Internet back then, John would have google TM and said, "this guy is bonkers, total BS, no way are we going to India!"

  • @sweetguitars Tm is not Hindu it is from the vedic traditon . Paul and Ringo still practise tm and are working for the David Lynch Foundation promoting tm in schools etc. George also practised tm and did a benefit gig in 1992 for the natural law party inspired by maharishi. john Lennon is the only one from the group who hasnt had a chance to publicly discredit anything that was said about maharishi .

  • Brian had just died and the lads were in shock and despair and ready to cling to any passing straw. It was the good fortune of the ragged arsed - but soon to be billionaire - the Maharishi, that he was in the right place at the right time with the right spiel. Allegedly, Lennon was pissed off at an unfounded rumour that the old grey beard had been rubbing soft parts with some of his female acolytes. So what, John? Even Jesus got his leg over Mary Magdalene. I thought this was the swinging 60's

  • Yeah, I think the Maharishi the "holiness" was hitting on one of the women that was with the Beatles when they were trying to learn from him. Some holyman.....

  • The Beatles could have used a role model to keep them a bit straight. They were too young and inexperienced to go chasing after sharp world scams like Maharishi. No one told them NO and they are lucky they got out with only hurt feelings and a sour stomach.

  • @1967mustanggta - Maharishi was not a "scam". Some of the claims made for the benefits of TM may have been somewhat exaggerated, but the Maharishi probably believed his own claims. The rumors of sexual impropriety were just that, rumors, apparently circulated by "Magic Alex" Mardas for the purpose of getting the Beatles to return to England. It apparently worked.

  • @bxdanny Perhaps he was right as rain on one of ten things said outside what common sense tells anyone is right and wrong. This is not a prophet which is what was hoped for. He was a scam.

  • There exists also a recording of Lennon singing who the f__k you think you are, ya c__t.

  • ive lost all respect for Maharishi...cuz he sexually harassed mia and prudence farrow...which led to george and john leaving india...

  • @beatlesboyseventeen No, you've got the story wrong. First, no one knows the name of who they say was sexually harassed by Maharishi Yogi Bear. Second, it was a myth. He never actually did. It was just a rumor that John bougt in to.

  • One of my favorite Beatles songs, right along with LSD and Happiness...

  • i like how everyone is going and white knighting some fucking con man

  • john knew that any situation made him horney.. so he dumped on mahesh yogi cause he went around a corner with a girl. later john was dominated by yoko feeding him heroin and ass till he complied.

  • Sexy Sadie spoof

  • Sexy Sadie was actually about the Maharishi.

  • @ClassicRocker679 we figured that out in 1968

  • @ClassicRocker679 no offence dude but its a bit obvious :~) or were you being sarcy :)

  • have to respect paul at 2:49

  • sex is good!

    and ah... not much of a tabu in india

    and they did write the kama sutra!

  • old guy here, lived through most of this...john found the old maha was trying to get the sex with the girls....seemed incongruous with his spiritual edicts...john was smarter than them all and made fun of the "spiritual" yogi

  • you are bringing much confusion! Chastity and sex taboos are the programm of the christians and especially the POPE. Maharishi said:

    Meditate and then do want you want ! Got it?

  • this does deff. sound like John, but ive never heard this... when did they make this??? and how did George ever let John do it i wonder..

  • Is this sexy sadie backwards???

  • Yes, becuase when a song is played backwards, it sounds exatly the same with different words. :|

  • Maharishi=paki conman.

  • Maharishi made fool of everyone !!1111

    Yeah !!! That's it Johnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn !!!11111

    lol

  • I started TM in 1972, and went on to become a teacher.

    Attractive, but alas, not the path to salvation, or even A path to salvation.

    Maharishi was deceptive. TM mantras are "puja mantras" which are the names of Hindu deities and the practice is to infuse the meditator with the powers and qualities inherent in that deity. To become "posessed" by that deity, if you will. It's a pity TM is not what Maharishi said it was.

    The few mantras are given according to the age of the initiate.

  • The mantras function in exactly the way that the sanskrit word implies: man- ="to think" and -tra= "instrument for" . It's an "instrument for thinking". Just like a "sutra" is "an instrument"(-tra) for "sewing" (-su) namely a thread. The mantra is used for its sound value to experience thinking at finer and finer levels so that coming to the finest level of sound it can be left behind and the experience of transcendence, beyond thought, attained. It's a regular experience for me & millions more

  • That experience of transcendence which is commonly experienced in Transcendental Meditation IS the level of salvation, however temporary, but made permanent, as the yoga sutras explain, by regular practice. That is the field of mukti, liberation, bhavatit chetana, Transcendental Consciousness and the reality of this is seen in scientific research, in Upanishadic explanations of that state and in the subjective experience, objectively understood. TM is the supreme path to it, Nature's own path.

  • Sorry bro, but all who take up a science course cannot become astro physicists , can they ? Same for TM. As for mantra powers, u do not become possessed by any deity - the core principle of Sanatan Dharma is that man has inherent in him all powers & they need awakened. There is corresponding name to that divine power. Just as in a Sitar you have many strings, its capable of all sounds but you hv to play a certain spot for a specific sound, similarly for mantra sadhana.

  • TM isn't that at all. The thing about meditation is that the true goal of it is not something that can be explained really you have to find it on your own. No god or mantra is going to make it happen.

  • 1. Take your middle finger and put it on your nose.

    2. Say the name of someone you like

    3. That person will ask you out or say they love you tomorrow.

    4. Heres the thing; copy and paste it to two other videos

  • The whole conection came long before the Rishikesh story..The Indra Bar in Hamburg...in life theare many misteries..The Beat-les and Maharishi you find a paradox and if you understad it you gat it. Jhon..Prudence,Of course Mia..Roman.Sharon .The rosemmarie babe and the insane Man-Son. We must follow Dharma and Ego is the biggest obstacle to evolve..Maharishi was the Door and Jhon gat in panic..it is a magnificent story we must learn from it.

  • The song, is about John's anger for the Maharishi, changing the title to Sexy Sadie at George's PLEADING. the song, Dear Prudence, is ALSO about events at Rishikesh, with the Maharishi. John was disillusioned, that the Maharishi was a "HOLY MAN" ABOVE carnal desire, but the Maharishi not only wanted SEX with Prudence Farrow, but her famous sister Mia, also present. when John found out, WHY "dear Prudence" would not come out of her Bungalow, he WAS FURIOUS! AND IT IS A WELL DOCUMENTED FACT!

  • Part 1:

    And again you have no knowledge about the whole thing!

    Right now Paul & Ringo are giving at the Radio-City Hall in New York today a benefit concert for Maharishis Movement so that Millions of poor children can learn freely Transcendental Meditation.

    Why would they do that if Maharishi was such a man you falsely here writing about!

  • Part 2:

    You are repeating lies.

    Remember what happend to poor John!

    As you sow so shall you reap!

    Secondly was George visiting Maharishi shortly before died to apologize for their false rumours they spread around. Here at "youtube" is a Video where Georges states that to come in contact with Maharishi & learning Meditation it was one of his most important things in his life he ever did! Read the Beatles Anthology!

  • Part 3:

    In the Anthology (The authorized Biography of the Beatles) Pal, Ringo & George apologized for their false statements they did 1968 after they came home from India.

    It was a pity they were following Johns advises & John is to pity for he had Yoko for his advisor. She was the evil point in his life which was really to short! But in the end always truth will win over lies. It is a Natural Law!

  • are you implying that John Lennon was struck down because he deserved it?

  • That comment was directed at franda.

  • Comment removed

  • All what happens is the seed we once were putting in the earth one day we will reap the "Fruit" of that action! It is a natural law. But still I feel pity for John (am not happy at all about his death). At last George, Ringo & Paul showed their love for Maharishi & apologized for their wrong doings.

    By the way 3 weeks ago Sir Paul with Ringo & many others gave a benefiz concert in NY to spread Maharishis Meditation (TM) in schools

  • isnt it sexy satie

  • its fake, the beatles are singing Sexy Sadie, listen again and you'll notice a 3 voice

  • How the fuck Maharishi a saint man?

    He is nothing but another human being made of skin and bones like you and me,and now you're trying to tell us that John died because he didn't accept an old man as his superior or god.This is ridiculous.

  • hey Marbonil, everybody who's born of a womb is made of skin & bones. Every saint in christanity or in any faith is like that too. even so called son of god or messenger of God was like that. They also died same way watsoever believers say. Infact we all r part of god. He is inside us. we all have potential to b saint. Or claim to b son of god. But we are fucked up by worldly desires. we have to come up first.

  • So, frandra, are you saying John not accepting the maharishi is why he was shot to death? George died of lung cancer; so, what was his bad karma from? not accepting Jesus Christ? I would say this is more true than why you think John was killed.

  • And many here are totally false:

    All the Beatles except John (and remember what Karma he unfortunately received) are loving the Maharishi!

    When last year my Master went into Maha-Samadhi Ringo & Paul spoke so nice about Maharishi & TM.

    George & Paul as well were visiting Maharishi in Holland & Paul McCartney is giving with his friends on April the 3. in New York a grand Concert so that many children in the schools can learn Maharishis Transcendental Meditation ™

    Frank

    TM-Teacher

  • Frank, YOU are WRONG! when the Maharishi went into death (Samadhi) the remaining Beatles paid respects. BUT George UNDERSTOOD John's anger of writing not only Maharishi (changed to Sexy Sadie) at George's pleading, but George was NEVER worried about John's KARMA! and all 3 Beatles LEFT the Maharishi at Rishikesh, WITH John, George DID NOT CONTINUE TRAINING with the maharishi, but instead, by Sri Ravi Shankar. John was angry also writing Dear Prudence, ABOUT the MAHARISHI! THIS IS WELL KNOWN FACT

  • So I heard that the reason the song was changed to "Sexy Sadie" is that George was upset with John.

  • Would be logical.

  • I think that john and paul would have appreciated him a lot more, but at the time John was still very cynical and Paul was a bit shallow,

  • Awesome Maha tune!

  • Very funny that they should magnetize one another. It's a bit of jest. Such things happen in life. Maharishi must be wise enough to know this, it's the momentary nature of there existance.

  • I applaud you for coming out of the closet and admitting you are gay! But...why here?! ha ha ha ha ha ha

  • @earcandyfilms That made me laugh out loud. Good work.

  • GAY!

  • And you have seen what happened to John for speaking ill/wrong stuff about a great saint! Instant Karma! At last George, Ringo & Paul apologized!

  • What the fuck is wrong with you?

  • Part 1:

    You always get back what send out!

    If you speak ill about a saint: Watch out & remember what happend to John. Read the Beatles Anthology & you see the left 3 of the "Fab 4" all apologized. As you sow to shall you read! It is a Natural Law, nothing less nothing more! This Paul said about Maharishis passing:

  • Part 2:

    According to a recent Deepak Chopra interview, he and friend George Harrison met with Maharishi in Vlodrop (MERU), Holland in 1991. Maharishi asked George to tell Deepak the story of why the Beatles left the ashram in India under clouded circumstances. George told Deepak that the Beatles were taking drugs while there. Maharishi found out about it--after Ringo and Paul had already left--and he told George and John to leave.

  • Your wrathful thoughts are lacking compassion and humility. Why be injured by this song/intention. A wise man is not injured by such things. They magnetized one another. It's very funny really.

  • george harrison was a devout hindu. his last rites were performed according to hindu religion

  • John received his instand Karma; a pity he went the way of the drugs instead of following Maharishis foot-steps!

  • So if you use drugs in the vicinity of some alleged saint, then Mother Nature makes sure you are gunned down before your apartment? Is that what you believe?

  • What happened to Judas Ishariod?

    John was doing somehow the same!

    God is not punishing; this is always doing Mother Nature. God is too sweet to hurt anybody, except the Demons; they deserve punishment!

    Hans: "Was suchst Du ein Dorn in meinem Auge, wo doch sich in deinem ein Balken befindet?!"

  • i like it.God is very sweet,though sometimes He has to punish,and ususally Nature will carry out that punishment.Nevertheless,what Judas Ischariot did was a lot worse.He betrayed Jesus the Lord,so that He could be taken prisoner and be tortured, humiliated and crucified.Even then,Judas hung himself,God did't take any revenge.When Judas had expressed repentence,he would have been forgiven and not go to Hell.The demons fallen Angels deserve eternal punishment they turned God down in His Face.

  • Also John Lennon betrayed a great Saint (Maharishi); in the Vedas it is written:

    "What someone does to one of my children it is done directly to Me!"

    God is the armour of all the Saints!

  • In what way did he betray him?

  • Part 1: Maharishi found out that "Magic Alex" brought drugs in Maharishis Holy Ashram (India/Rishikesh) for some of the "fab four", so they created a false story that Maharishi would have touched Mia Farrow. Years later the 3 other Beatles apologized for their false statement. You can read it in the Beatles authorized Anthology (Biography). Shortly before George left his body & also Paul had a few month later in Holland a private meeting with Maharishi.

  • Part 2: Maharishi said to George: "There is no need to apologize; I still love all 4 of you. You have done so much good with your Music. I look upon you as being Angels!" Then tears of love went down the face of George! Dr. Deepak Chopra was the witness of this beautiful private meeting.

  • What John may have done to Maharishi is not in comparison to what Judas Ischariot has done to Jesus, that is betraying his Master so that he may be killed. I mean, is death penalty (John was shot) Nature's punishment for being so disrespectful that he brought drugs to Maharishi's ashram? What are we fighting the Taliban for? John was behind the Beatle's exclamation that they were more popular than Jesus, and yes, that is disrespectful.I don't know if he deserves death for that.

  • You are right I am not in the postion to jugde!

    All Glory to Guru Dev, Christ & all great Souls in the Universe.

    All Glory to God from whow they all came & will come till the end of time!

    Frank

  • All of us will die one way or another. It is not because of betrayal. It is just how nature operates. Even Lazarus whom Jesus resurrected had to unltimately die, again! Whom did Jesus betray? He had to die on the cross! This is evidence that death is not a bad thing, because all of us have to go at some point. If death is bad, then birth should be worse.

  • It's just a beatles song man! Enjoy it.Cut the religion crap.

  • excactly enjoy its beauty

  • @FidoForce42 no its actually about Maharishi, like legit.

  • February 5, 2008, Sir Paul McCartney released a statement saying, "Whilst I am deeply saddened by his passing, my memories of him will only be joyful ones.

    He was a great man who worked tirelessly for the people of the world and the cause of unity. I will never forget the dedication that he wrote inside a book he once gave me, which read 'radiate, bliss, consciousness', and that to me says it all. I will miss him but will always think of him with a smile."

  • Can't think why nobody thought of doing this before, well done.
