Vintage MAHARISHI MAHESH YOGI postcard 14056 © 1968 Libra Artworks

Description

Oversized postcard by Libra Artworks of Berkeley, CA featuring Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (
महर्षि महेश योगी
in Sanscrit) copyright 1968. The card has a catalog number 14056, one of TRUMP CARDS.
The card is new, and is printed on glossy card stock, 6" x 9". The pile is getting pretty low, and
while there are very few noticeable flaws,
some of the corner tips are soft a few even bent.
Interesting to note that the song "Sexy Sadie" was written by John Lennon is a reference to Maharishi Mahesh. Lennon originally wanted to title the song "Maharishi
",
but changed the title to "Sexy Sadie" at George Harrison
's request. Lennon was disillusioned after Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
had allegedly made a sexual advance at one of the female members attending the course the Maharishi was teaching at his ashram. Harrison, Paul McCartney
, and Cynthia Lennon
later said that they thought the story, which had come from Alexis Mardas
, had been fabricated.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for considering this postcard!
