Here is Harrison chanting maha-mantra with devotees so many years ago. I do not know where.

The resolution is poor; George is on the harmonium. Any single full mantra is as full and total as the near 7 minutes here,
so stop anytime. The Lord may be hard to see, but is easy to hear, here.
If you know devotees, look for Guru Das.



A different departed devotee friend, may his name be for a blessing, is seen below just to George's right.

That song they're playing in the video is different. Something about simple melodies and rhythms with repetition stirs the spirit. I listened to it with my eyes closed for a while and it made my spirit feel lighter. Too bad it doesn't make my body lighter, I need to lose some weight.
