George Harrison: A letter sent to a fan, regarding religion and meditation,

1969,
written in black ink on two sheets of pale green paper, sent from the Apple office in Saville Row and dated 17.11.69, with George supplying the London addresses of the Radha Krishna Temple and Students International Meditation Society, continuing, The book I personally recomend is Autobiography of a Yogi - by Paramhansa Yogananda...This is a beautiful book containing amazing information, and not only a Philosophical teaching but an account of his own life experiences: a good investment! I realise you are tired of reading and also that one can read forever and not benefit unless some form of practise is incorporated. However, if you have not already read this book you should have it before deciding what form of practise is harmonius with your personal way of life. In a way I feel closer to Yogananda than all the others, and have propagated his book for the past three years. Good luck to you, all I can really say is what I try to tell myself, if you are sincere and practise many years then the Lord will ultimately reveal Himself to you. Love from George Harrison, with original envelope postmarked 17 NOV 1969, the sheets, 13.3 x 7.8cm (5¼ x 7in)
