Track 15 - "Who Is Me":
During the summer of 2002, Engine #9 traveled to Rishikesh to
study transcendental meditation with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
That long weekend (Saturday thru Sunday afternoon) was filled
with meditation and lectures. The recurring theme throughout the
Maharishi’s lectures was “who am I?” and “why
am I here?”
“Who
cares” was the only answer that we were able to find.
Billy, Dave, Chris, Knappy & Eric were hit with a creative
spark while in Rishikesh that spawned this track and one can hear
that the Maharishi’s message of peace and understanding
had a lasting effect on them.
One of E9’s crewmembers was also
an accomplished helicopter pilot. |
