1/2 Howard Stern interviews Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Washington D.C., 1985

www.tm.org Howard Stern interviews Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Washington D.C. on January 13th, 1985.
Howard Stern: I came into the room tonight and the place is buzzing with excitement and yesterday there was a big inauguration of the Vedic Sciences and there will be new University, can you tell me about that?
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi: Vedic University is a timely development in the field of education. All the education that is given in all these universities in the world. I thought one very precious element was missing and that is man's ability to harness support of nature and Vedic Study is that very precious field of knowledge whereby one can really harness the full potential, the full creative potential of nature where the full organizing power of nature can guide one thinking and action.
Howard Stern: So this is the first university of it's kind in Washington... What is support nature.
Maharishi Mahesh Yogi: It is that help from natural law. Life is basically driven by natural laws - different laws of nature govern different aspects of one's activity.
Maharishi began teaching Transcendental Meditation to the world in 1957

It's so strange to see Howard speak to someone who he has so much respect for. Not at all the Howard I'm used to seeing. Very fun and instersting clip.

I happened to be present there,
and it was not in New York,
but in Washington DC.
Love,

[@maharishichannel]

Thanks for the clarification.

Maharishi always spoke highly of Yogananda. He said Yogananda's Kriya Yoga was the best meditation technique before Maharishi's effortless Transcendental Meditation technique came out to the world.

Very Cool.

@XAVIERCUERVO George Lucas actually modeled Yoda after Maharishi.

[@emmetLshavinski]

It's so interesting to see Howard in this light at that time. It wouldn't be as surprising today but for him scrapping the public image he created during this time shows the importance of this.

If you knew anything, you'd know that the Baba Booey thing wouldn't come about for several years.

'rickmanization' - Howard Stern loves Maharishi. Howard practices TM. why the hell would he make fun of him ? I find your comment to be rude and offensive! you need to grow up!!
