| Understanding Transcendental Meditation |

Although its origins are in ancient India, Transcendental Meditation has only been popular in the United States since the early 1960s. That’s when a man with a twinkle in his eye named Maharishi Mahesh Yogi taught an updated version of an ancient technique that spread throughout the West coast. After its embrace by the Beatles, it faded from popular view, but then in the early 2000s, director David Lynch brought it back into the spotlight. We asked Erik Davis to put this all in context for us. He spoke to producer Laura Kwerel.
