Three worlds at His feet
Cause of every star

George Harrison's 'It Is he (Jai Sri Krishna)' stands as a testament to his deep spiritual devotion and the profound influence of Hindu philosophy on his musical output. The track serves as a direct invocation of Lord Krishna, reflecting the artist's lifelong engagement with Eastern spirituality that permeated his songwriting and production choices. While often associated with his broader catalogue of spiritually themed recordings, this piece captures the meditative and devotional quality that defined much of his work during the 1970s and beyond. The song's title and refrain emphasize a moment of religious realization, aligning with Harrison's reputation for blending rock instrumentation with sincere, faith-based messaging. It remains a significant song in his discography for fans interested in the intersection of his personal beliefs and his creative expression.
