John Lennon started writing this while lying in bed with his first wife, Cynthia. John said Cynthia was talking on and on and the words to this song started floating into his head. He couldn't sleep, got out of bed and wrote as much as he could. Lennon said it was one of his favorites. He especially liked the lyrics.
The refrain "Jai Guru Deva Um" is a mantra intended to lull the mind into a higher consciousness. The words are in Sanskrit, and they mean "I give thanks to Guru Dev," who was the teacher of The Maharishi. The "Um" at the end is the drawn out "oooohm" used in meditation to relate to the natural vibration of the universe.
