Why the name Beatles?

The Beatles visited Rishikesh between 1968-1970 to participate in a  Transcendental Meditation program by Maharishi Mahesh at an Ashram by the banks of Ganga which is now colloquially called the Beatles Ashram. During this time, they composed a total of 17 songs including the famous White Album.  The ashram has a curious spread of over 100 uniquely-designed meditation domes where the students of Maharishi’s would practise TM and includes labeled domes of the Beatles. Today the Ashram is famous for its various wall murals and graffiti art dedicated to the English band and the  surrounding  Swarg Ashram area feels like a part of their legacy.
