David Lynch: First of all its a real big honor to interview you, to talk to you Paul, and I've got to tell you I am not a professional interviewer. But I'm curious. So I'll just ask you some things. And I'm curious-- I assume some time in the sixties, set the stage, when did you first hear the word meditation and what did you make of it?
Paul McCartney: It was actually George Harrisons wife, Pattie, who had heard that Maharishi was coming to town. And she said we should all go. It was one of those things. And I was personally not in a good place. I think you know just over doing it in the sixties. So I was just not very--sort of --centered and I was looking for something. I think we all were. So we heard that Maharishi was going to have a meeting and give a lecture. So that was the first time Id heard about meditation. But we'd actually seen him when we were kids growing up in Liverpool. Because as you know he went around the world seven times to spread his message. And he was on TV. And we remembered this giggling little guy and we thought, we loved him. We just said he's so cool! you know. And he was just on TV, and he was giving an interview and he would giggle--that fabulous laugh of his. And he was very entertaining and very attractive. So we all said that's that guy! But then I say, he was giving a lecture.
David Lynch: Where was it?
Paul McCartney: In London.
David Lynch: But do you remember the place?
Paul McCartney: I don't remember it. I think it was in Kensington, Chelsea or somewhere. But-so that was the first time I heard about it and we all went along to listen.
David Lynch: And in the talk-what feeling, you know, came over you about what he was saying--his message?
*Note: Paul McCartney and all the Beatles learned Transcendental Meditation from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 1960's.
Now the David Lynch Foundation is teaching at-risk children Transcendental Meditation to help overcome classroom stress and other social issues.
Seeing David Lynch get star struck is pretty amazing.
Agree, it was like he was watching a film.
Unbelievable honestly. Ozzy acted the same way, just unbelievable
It’s really cute to see him like that. Didn’t think he enjoyed Beatles honestly
Actually there’s probably more depth to Lynch than to McCartney.
Those are two legends right there everybody
Really? Who are those guys?

It hardly gets better than Paul McCartney and David Lynch.
2 of my most favorite people together 😱
same man its thrilling
I have NEVER seen or was even aware of this interview's existence. Thank you for posting this.
I assume this interview was much longer....where is the rest?
I love both men, Paul and David; they are my heroes. At the end of the sixties Paul inspired me to start with meditation. Thanks to Maharishi and his Master for having given us the "Art of Transcending"
Jai Guru Dev
David had the opportunity to speak with Paul amazing.
What an amazing mix of personalities and creative influence.
What a weird meetup and video to stumble upon a welcomed treat lol
India- The Birthplace of White Album.
Paul reminds me of how I, as a child, saw the Maharishi the first time I saw him on television. We all really were on the same wavelength. No wonder the Beatles were so popular.
Happy Birthday Sir Paul!!!
Wtf two legends At the same time
So down to earth and youthful love him, and i got to see him live twice :)
“It was very simple.” A consistent and recurring message of TM. It is attractive! Maharishi was attractive.
Mr Lynch is my fav interviewer
He's curious, and that's enough
Maybe the best conversation ever.
wow no way, can't believe this happened, awesome...and now..hits play
+Ichy Mcgee, over 5 million people worldwide have learned the TM technique, from all economic backgrounds. While there is a course fee to sustain our non-profit program, it is our wish that anyone who wants to learn can learn, and so we do our best to offer scholarships and grants to those in need. The David Lynch Foundation picks up where we leave off, teaching TM for free to some of the world's most stressed populations, such as inner-city students, prisoners, victims of domestic abuse, homeless men and women, and refugees.
I love you Sir Paul. Jah Guru Dev.
Sucha great combo! There were two talented guys talkin' 'bout meditation, wow!
These two are total geniuses in their respective fields, so it's great to see them in a room together, talking about anything, but especially something like TM.
Through my Heros in my youg Age I came first time in contact with Maharishi & started soon after with TM & became a TM-Teacher.
JGD.

I could watch 4 hours of this
In 1964 the Beatles are the best mucic to my teenage friends and I never dreamed David Lynch would be a good friend of one of the Beatles... .. never crossed my mind that would come to pass... ..and it has ! ! ... .. because in his own right, David Lynch has done as much for his art as Sir Paul.👍💖🛐⚡☄️🌠👍💖 It is mind blowing to witness this... I am awed by the two friends ! ! ⚡⚡☄️🌠👍💖 Cool 👍💖🙋
Fan of Beatles & studied in Maharishi ji's school 🙌🏼😊
Thanks.
Worth seeking out the Rick Rubin interviews as well. McCartney is a very good subject, has lived an extraordinary life.
Mackers is wearing his marty mcfly costume. There's a skateboard under his left foot for quick escape.

Lynch with makeup?
Under strong lights, not unusual.
Paul McCartney sounds muffled, like he has a cold. He keeps clearing his throat.
Yes, Patti turned them on to meditation and therefore became barren. George died way before his time.
You dont "become" barren, if you know science. And George died of cancer. So clearly we have to judge meditation by the kind of life people are living with a good sample size. Are they over dosing on drugs, getting arrested for violence and drama or living a wholesome peaceful life?
