Belgaum : Spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has described Maharishi Mahesh Yogi as a “great saint” whose contribution to the world would be remembered forever.
“Maharshi was a great saint. He was highly skilled in managing world affairs and at equally dispassionate at the same time,” Ravi Shankar said, recalling the time he spent with Maharshi in his early days.
“Maharshi laid the foundation for a new world based on the knowledge of Vedas and spirituality. There was none like him and none shall ever be again. He remains unparalleled,” Ravi Shankar added.
Mahesh Yogi, the Indian guru most responsible for making meditation a household word and whom the Beatles once sought, died Tuesday at his organisation’s headquarters at Vlodrop in the Netherlands. He was 91.
