«Breaking News» Ashram where the Beatles wrote the White Album and came to meditate lies overgrown

These eerie pictures show the abandoned remains of the ashram in India where the Beatles wrote the White Album.


Some of the buildings are crumbling and parts of the grounds are overgrown at the retreat on the eastern bank of the Ganges river in Rishikesh, far northern India.


Graffiti artists have scrawled some of The Fab Four's famous lyrics, including 'I get high with a little help from my friends' on the walls alongside drawings of the Dalai Lama.


Fifty years ago, the 'Beatles Ashram' - also known as Chaurasi Kutia - was the focus of international attention when John, Paul, George and Ringo travelled there to study meditation. 


But it became derelict after its flamboyant guru Maharishi Mahesh Yogi abandoned the spiritual hermitage in the 1970s.

The complex was reported to have reopened to the public in 2015 on the 35th anniversary of John Lennon's assassination with authorities in the state of Uttarakhand cleaning up the site with a view to turning it into a yoga centre for tourists.


But recent pictures taken by Antony Meadley, 54, from Eastbourne, East Sussex, show how trees and plants have grown up in and around some of the buildings while colourful graffiti has been sprayed on walls. 

Lyrics from Beatles classics 'Cry Baby Cry' and 'With a Little Help From My Friends' can be seen on the crumbling paint work.


The ashram is spread over nearly 18 acres (7.2 hectares) of land in the Himalayan foothills.


It has remained a popular pilgrimage for hardcore Beatles fans despite becoming derelict and being taken over by the wildlife department in 2003.

Fans could still sneak in by climbing over the perimeter walls, with a meditation hall decorated with colourful graffiti the main attraction.


The Beatles stayed at the ashram in 1968 to learn transcendental meditation from the guru Maharishi.


It was there and shortly afterwards that they penned many of their songs for their famous 'White Album'.


They wrote around 48 songs during that period, including Back in the USSR, Dear Prudence  - inspired by Mia Farrow's sister, Prudence, who was staying at the ashram at the same time - and I'm So Tired - which Lennon wrote after suffering from three weeks of poor sleep at the ashram.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
