The Answer Can be Anywhere, I Suppose

Paul McCartney reflecting on The Beatles’ time in India with the Maharishi:

“One day Maharishi needed to get to New Delhi so someone suggested a helicopter. We got down to the Ganges, the helicopter landed and they asked, ‘Does anyone want a quick go before Maharishi takes off?’ John jumped up. ‘Yea, yea, yeah, yeah!’ John got there first, and there was only room for one. So later I asked John, ‘Why were you so keen? You really wanted to get in that helicopter.’ ‘Yeah,’ he said. ‘I thought he might slip me the answer!’ Which is very revealing about John. I suppose everyone is always looking for the Holy Grail.”

I can't remember what I was looking for but I ended up noticing a comment from this post in 2011:

Who was that? A friend of mine, or a random stranger? What'd they mean - has the secret to changing my life been buried this whole time in some random hidden-away comment lying dormant at my very fingertips all these years? What if I'd have seen this at the time, would my life be different than it is now? 🤔🤷‍♂️
