George Harrison Said His Only Ambition Was to Be God-Conscious

George Harrison said his only ambition was to be God-conscious, not to be a rock star. Although, his career as a guitarist led him to spirituality.

If George never became a rock star, he might not have become spiritual.

Spirituality came to George after a series of coincidental events. First, he heard Indian music on the set of The Beatles’ Help! When he started learning sitar, friends told him about Ravi Shankar.

Around this time, George took LSD for the first time and said it opened his mind up to “God-consciousness.” However, he didn’t know what that meant.

In 1965, George met Shankar, who immediately wanted to teach George everything he knew. The most important lesson Shankar taught George was that God is sound and that by playing the right notes, one can connect to God.

In 1966, George, his wife, Pattie Boyd, and Shankar took a six-week trip to India. George began learning about meditation and yoga. A year later, George learned Transcendental Meditation from the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
