Stevens wrote: “George Harrison was beginning to explore Eastern mysticism around the time I was hospitalized with tuberculosis in 1968. Lying in bed, I had a lot of free time and ended up reading a Buddhist book called The Secret Path. That was the beginning of my own search for light.
“While most of my generation was only interested in music, I was a bit like George, where music became the key to something much higher. After the rage of the ’60s, his consciousness was awakened and George transcended to levels few people ever experience. You can hear it in his lyrics and see it in the way he lived and dealt with the material world, looking for a way out.”
