What You Will Do
The Beatles' Ashram is a guided tour for those who want to embark on their own spiritual quest - and it's an experience that Beach Boys singer Mike Love will never forget. As he recalls, the Indian locale remains a destination for fans of music and meditation - and you get to see the meditation Hall where Maharishi went to talk about Vedic philosophy every afternoon and evening.
The banyan tree under which the Maharishi Chaurasi Kutiya stands is a fascinating place. The Beatles Ashram has 84 chambers where Maharishi Yogi introduced transcendental meditation.
There are many buildings on the campus that have been designed for specific purposes, such as the kitchen area for preparing feasts, Maharshi Bungalow for accommodating VIP guests, the Post Office, Printing Office, and Senior Hall.
