Some acid humor etching away at a little truth. You know, now and again I am haunted by something very evil. Some terrible waste thought, like ... like this. Please look for the serious edge. There is reason to my ribald.
Sexy Sadie was a song written by John Lennon about the Transcedental Meditation founder, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi , 'The Maharishi', after he and The Beatles had visted the Maharishi's ashram in Rishikesh. Like it, them, and the 60s or not, but it was very much The hippie Beatles that brought India, and even Hinduism to the West, first by their flirtation with the guru and then by their relationship with the Hare Krishnas. Strange they never get a mention in the Murlis.
Though there had been early travellers, thanks to the rise of TV and the influence of the Beatles, who were at that time "Bigger than Jesus", it was also the Maharishi that very much laid down what was yogi for the West.
There was a falling out though. The rumor that spread was that the Maharishi had tried it on, or touched up either the actress Mia Farrow or a pretty Californian hippie chick that had gone out with the Beatles in order to transfer his spiritual energy. In return, the ascerbic Lennon wrote this song. The Maharishi being given the nickname "Sexy Sadie".
I just had a thought, that given all that and what else we know, from a Gyani BK point of view, it would kind of suit Dadi Janki and so I wrote this sone in rememberance of her. Tune about ... follow the link if you do not know it. To be honest, I think it is better that Robin Gibb's number, "Mother".
"Dadi Janki" (Sexy Sadie Lyrics by The Beatles)Lennon and McCartney did not wrote:Dadi Janki what have you done
You made a fool of everyone
You made a fool of everyone
Dadi Janki ooh what have you done.
Dadi Janki you broke the rules
You layed it down for all to see
You layed it down for all to see
Dadi Janki oooh you broke the rules.
One sunny day the world was waiting for a lover
She came along to turn on everyone
Dadi Janki the greatest Trimurti Dadi of them all.

Dadi Janki how did you know
The world was waiting just for you
The world was waiting just for you
Dadi Janki oooh how did you know.
Dadi Janki you'll get yours yet
However big you think you are
However big you think you are
Dadi Janki oooh you'll get yours yet.
We gave her everything we owned just to sit at her table
Just a smile would lighten everything
Dadi Janki she's the latest and the greatest Trimurti Dadi of them all.
She made a fool of everyone
Dadi Janki.
However big you think you are
Sexy Sadie.
There is reason for this connection. I knew an old timer TM follower that got on their bus early on and had close access to the Maharishi who told them many things that he would not, or could not say in public. In many way the dynamics were the same as what some of experience in the older days of Gyan.
One of the things that the Maharishi said, was that in the cosmic order of things, he was not a "Brahmin", part of the priest caste, despite being a worldly yogi rishi. He said he was a Kshatrya, a warrior. A spiritual warrior fighting in the West to establish a kingdom. What he was ighting for or with, I do not know or cant remember. But I distinctly remember this issue of being a warrior on the spiritual level.
I am relating this too to the nature of the senior BKs; their Empire establishing, their Kingliness, all the talk about Mahabharat and armies and so on ... and may be too many of our own feelings about sucking up and seeing others suck up to "her table" and am wondering what is really going on. Is our show really that much different from his? The Maharishi had the Beatles, Janki has Robin Gibb. In 1968 the Rishi had a private helicopter, now he even has a real University now, she still has a fake one ... and he is only a dirty impure Shudra.
Still, we know by Gyan what rules have and are been broken ... Sexy Sadie, a Trimurti Dadi indeed.
When The Beatles left early, John was elected as spokesman, although he hated the task.
"We're leaving, Maharishi," he said.
The little man looked pained.
"But why?" he asked.
John did not have the courage to confront him. Evasively, he said,
"You're the cosmic one, you should know."
The Maharishi looked as if he wanted to kill him.
The Maharishi who was already surrounded by early European ladies that had surrendered their wealth ... and who thought young people should stay in school and obey their parents and obey the leaders of their country who were more informed and qualified than they also disagreed with nuclear disarmament but ... expected the Beatles to tithe over 10 to 25 percent of their annual income to a Swiss account in his name. I wonder percent Robin Gibb is on?
