John Lennon's Letter To A Fan About Transcendental Meditation Goes Up For Auction

A 1967 letter John Lennon wrote to a fan who asked him about transcendental meditation is going under the virtual hammer.

Nate D. Sanders Auctions of Santa Monica, an online auction house, says the handwritten letter is expected to fetch up to $30,000 (£19,000). Bidding closes October. 11.

In the letter, Lennon tells Jean Harrison she is "searching for something (truth) the same as everyone else."

He says the Beatles were lucky to have met Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, but that other teachers could instruct her. And he gives her the address of a school in London.

Last month, Sanders sold a contract for a Beatles concert for more than $23,000. The pact, for a 1965 concert in San Francisco, stated the group would not perform for a segregated audience.
