Their second movie Help! had The Beatles chased by a fictitious Indian sacrificial cult, and included sitar music and other Indian motifs. While they filmed in the Bahamas, a Hindu devotee gave each Beatle a book about reincarnation. George Harrison got the most out of the book, and it sparked in him a lifelong interest in Hinduism and Indian culture. His sitar studies with Ravi Shankar were his first and only formal music lessons.
You have to understand the 1960's to understand it was very cool to know about or follow the Indian culture. The founding premise of the 60's was peace and love and out of that came the philosophy of Gandhi and others who talked/wrote about change through non violence and love. Sitar music became very popular, meditation, and learning from the ancient Hindu and Yogi of India was considered very cool.
