Absolutely. The Beatles had been very concerned about suffering from famine (they gave back their O.B.E.s [the next best thing to being knighted] to protest the starvation in Biafra [a region of Nigeria that was trying to revolt and the UK was suppressing it, because Nigeria has a LOT of oil]) but it was George who went the extra mile, basically creating the "benefit concert" and making it a success.

More than any other Beatle, George went on a spiritual journey trying to find a deeper meaning to life beyond fame and fortune. He had attained the pinnacle of success as far as this world was concerned. He was in the greatest band ever. He had financial freedom. He had an abundance of sensual experiences. But still, there was an emptiness. He felt that there must be something more to life than this. And he chose to pursue God through the Hindu faith. And I think that sooner or later everyone comes to this fork in the road, where we either go on our personal journey in pursuit of Someone or Something greater than ourselves that will somehow fill that void in our souls that says, “There has to be more to life than this. If there is a God, He meant for me to seek Him and ultimately to find Him.” Or people go down that other side where there’s no meaning in life, and that once you die that’s it. There’s no more consciousness. We close our eyes and then everything fades to black. My personal journey took me to God through Jesus Christ. In Him I’ve found fulfillment, peace, and joy in life. May God bless you all in your journey and search for God and meaning in life. In the meantime, let’s love and care for one another. After all, life is short, and we’ve only been given one to live. So, let’s be kind to one another.

The sad thing is that religion is made by men with men’s superstitions and men’s desires to create a basis for the control of others. So religion is illogical, often cruel and full of obvious ridiculousness. There is no religion without a mad God or Gods, so for me, the search for meaning is not within any organised faith.

One or two songs per album, and he built up a backlog of songs, and no chance to do them, in his then-current situation. So, after being nagged at by Paul, and John trying to mediate and failing, because he was biased toward Paul's position, then John and Paul collaborating on some song construction, and basically tuning out George's attempts to contribute, George was like "I don't need this, I'd be better off without this, so good bye and good luck."

When massive fame hit, the Beatles were suddenly bigger than life. This is when a lot of musicians lose themselves in drugs and lifestyle. The Beatles went on spiritual journeys to help keep the egos in check. George always had Hare Krishna's around the studio and his house. Remember Doctor Hook & the Medicine show on Cover of the Rolling Stone talking about a "genuine Indian guru teaching them a better way". Exploring meditation and other cultures were a big deal at the time. He isn't wishing for death, but rather has an intense desire for a closer relationship with God.

I bet you can't be specific with your comment and make a case for why he wasn't rated where he should have been.

Alan Watts! How cool that you know about him. His books and tapes were mother's milk at one time. This song was an early form of world music, and a bit of an olive branch to Hindus and Indians. Very popular when it came out, but at lone time they were sued for it being so close to "He's So Fine", by The Chiffons, which sounds so weird now, but who would perk up a wee lad's ears in the early '60s. The Beatles went to India and studied with the Maharishi and Ravi Shankar, got high and made music from and about the experiences. I already told the hall monitor.

Later in the 1970s, "My Sweet Lord" was at the centre of a heavily publicised copyright infringement suit due to its alleged similarity to the Ronnie Mack song "He's So Fine", a 1963 hit for the New York girl group the Chiffons. In 1976, Harrison was found to have subconsciously plagiarised the song, a verdict that had repercussions throughout the music industry. Rather than the Chiffons song, he said he used the out-of-copyright Christian hymn "Oh Happy Day" as his inspiration for the melody.

For me as an atheist the great thing about this track is the joy of the sound - it is a huge joyous celebratory sound which engenders happiness. It's a kind of contagious joy about something. e.g. I've never been to California, but I still love many songs which celebrate the best of it it (Beach Boys, Mamas and Papas, America etc) cos - to me and apparently millions of others - they ooze happiness and joy and its hard to deny that the world needs as much of that as it can get. As you guys reaction shows, it's not necessary to understand or share the belief aspects of this for it to be a "Wow" experience. In musical terms "My Sweet Lord" is pretty similar to "He's So Fine" but it's not a copy. The record is a classic pop song build, starting from that simple double tracked acoustic guitar intro, building and building to something that sounds like a whole stadium full of people singing those backing lines. "build" songs have rarely been done better than this. I can only guess at how many studio hours it must have taken George to put this together in 1970 - not a few. It was, and it remains, one of the crown jewels of British pop.

Died at 56 or 58? not sure but George was born a catholic but going to India with the mates,The Beatles, gave him a deeper meaning to god than anything christian could ever do. Yoga,meditation and Indian music is all do to George's spiritual journey. Alanis Moressett did the same thing.THANK YOU INDIA. When i turned 50, 69 now, I traveled to India and yes, it did change my life for the better.

George's friend Billy Preston sings a version of this song along with Eric Clapton and many others, there is a live recording of it on YT, it's the best version of this song I've ever heard. he was attempting to create a blend of music that would appeal to Christian and eastern faiths like Hindu, I think he accomplished that beautifully.

You guys inspired me to look this one up, and a little surprised I never had till now because I always loved this song. Per the interwebs.... Harrison’s lyrical attempt to bridge a divide between Christianity and Hinduism was one meaning of the song. There is also a hint of impatience in the Harrison penned track. Really want to see you, Lord, Harrison sings, But it takes so long, my Lord (Hallelujah). This verse speaks to Harrison’s own spiritual journey in which he heavily studied Eastern religions like Hindu. In his exploration, Harrison was particularly drawn to the Indian Hindu monk Swami Vivekananda’s teachings. One such teaching, “If there’s a God, we must see him. And if there is a soul, we must perceive it,” was an inspiration for “My Sweet Lord.”

George was sued by the Chiffons for Copyright infringement. The Song sounds like their song "He's so fine", but George won the case. George was Deeply Religious, studying many forms of Worship. He invited the other Beatles to India at an Ashram to study under Maharishi Meshi Yogi. Ringo Left after Catching the Maharishi getting "friendly" with Mia Farrow. His Song list is Amazing!

From Google: In the end, Harrison was found guilty of “subconscious plagiarism” and had to pay $1,599,987 of the earnings from “My Sweet Lord” to Bright Tunes (songwriter Ronnie Mack had died in 1963, shortly after “He's So Fine” charted).

They all left over a rumor that turned out to not be true. Mia is/was a flake and a Beatle hanger on spread a rumor. Years later the three except for John who had died apologized to Maharishi who said he never stopped loving them. Paul and Ringo still do shows for the TM movement. Prudence as in Dear Prudence was Mia’s sister and took the course very seriously.

He's not talking about dying as the means to meet his Lord, he means the method of spiritual connection he has chosen ie chanting mantra, is a long process, but one he's willing to endure to have that wonderful meeting with his Lord, in his eyes Lord Krishna. This may be one of the most successful religious songs ever written, despite whatever your spiritual/religious leaning may be. Well done George the world needs more human beings like you who put themselves out there despite what others may think.

I don’t believe in the existence of any god, but I can appreciate good music, regardless. That slide guitar work was nice 👍 I can also appreciate how some people might hunger for the ‘sweet release of death’ either because they believe they’ll be reunited with their creator or because life can really ramp up one’s suffering at times.

I don't think the song is about yearning for the "sweet release of death'. My guess is that George's intent was to provide a link to a different view. One in line with Brad's observation. The concept of death being how one gets "reunited with their creator" is what is most familiar to us in the US. However, "To see you Lord" or to "to know you Lord" doesn't necessarily mean that, especially in the Hindu influenced religions that have a tradition of reincarnation. A common view there is that death leads to another try at "getting it right". Think Ground Hog Day. That often combines with a view that we are already united with our creator, we just don't know it. Getting to really know that is something we can work on. Something to strive for in this life.

It was George Harrison that introduced Indian music, philosophy and spirtuality to the western culture of the late 60"s. The lyric's of George's Beatle contributions reflected that. Check out the song Within You, Without You from the Sgt. Pepper album. The Beatles also went to a meditation retreat in India in 68. George also help organize the world's first ever Benefit Concert. The Concert For Bangladesh in 1971.
