The Beatles guru Maharishi dies aged 91
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the man who taught the Beatles transcendental meditation, has died. He was 91.
The Indian mystic became famous in 1968 when the Beatles travelled to the foothills of the Himalayas to learn his techniques and he was also filmed with Mike Love of the Beach Boys, the singer Donovan and actress Mia Farrow.
Love said: "His passing is profoundly sad. But I for one, am among the millions who are grateful for what he shared with us. We will miss you, but your great light will shine on."
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi moved to the village of Vlodrop in Holland in 1990 and died there last night.
The Maharishi built a business empire worth billions, including property dealing and a company selling ayurvedic medicine and cosmetics.
He set up universities and schools all over the world and his Natural Law Party has campaigned in elections in dozens of countries around the world.
