John was not happy with several aspects of the finished recording, he thought his singing and the guitars were out of tune (Geoff Emerick thought he had never sung better), he was upset with what he thought was a lacklustre effort from Paul on his song. John's offering was this song, and recording took place on the 4th and 8th Feb 1968.
ACROSS THE UNIVERSE CHORDS SERIES
In Feb '68 The Beatles booked Abbey Road studios for a series of sessions in order to record a single that would be released while they were away studying Transcendental Meditation in India, which ended up being "Lady Madonna/ The Inner Light".
Titan from Adelaide, South AustraliaI am really getting sick to death with all the incorrect descriptions of there being two different recordings of this song. Sorry but that's my opinion john has a message in his work. Songs u dance to, like I said songs must have meanings to me not just music. 
John Lennon's songs have a message that leaves my mind in wonder.
Roberttrest from South AlabamaI am not all knowing about songwriting, but I do have my own likes about songs. To add to this oddity, this is coming from a guy that favors old school punk, neo punk, speed metal, basically the stuff that most everyone else dislikes. And I do not endorse or encourage any drug use to anyone, and my arm is not twisted to say that. But the same results without the psilocybin occur even better. I found this out by accident after ingesting psilocybin and listening to their recording in my early twenties. Now you can call me a nut, but this will mello you out instantly, everytime. Doesnt have to sound good, but the concentration on open sky must be there. Think " Hey God! Are you listening? I wanna say Thank you". Sit down, close the eyes, visualize open skies*. Try this next time you're angry(providing anger permits it). So is the song constructed around the spirit, or is the spirit so flexable it cannot break? Meaning whatever genre it is converted to, the vibration of the mantra remains as potent as ever. And as time passed, I've toyed with it only to find this song indestructable. Mathew Conn from Jurupa Valley, Ca.Odd thing. Martin Stevenson from Milton KeynesI worked in London at the time the Beatles were going through their split and I remember so many Beatles songs because we spent hours in dark rooms, singing all Beatles songs while processing customers photos and slides! Jai Guru Deva ommmmm was special to us for some reason and I’ve never, ever forgotten that song and it’ll live with me forever. When I heard their music for the first time on the radio, I really got interested in music for the first time! I loved it! Could not get enough of their music ! I was 6 years old! Sharon Hilmers Steele from Victoria, TexasI love the Beatles. The two young women Paul grabbed off the street to sing backup appear on the World Wildlife recording of the song, but not on the version on Let It Be. 
meaning we'd play experimental games with my great pieces, like 'Strawberry Fields,' which I always thought was badly recorded." I think subconsciously sometimes we - I say 'we' although I think Paul did it more than the rest of us - Paul would, sort of subconsciously, try and destroy a great song. Nobody was interested in doing the tune originally." In another interview, he said, "The Beatles didn't make a good record of it. They came in and were singing all off-key. I was singing out of tune, and instead of getting a decent choir, we got fans from outside. John is quoted again about that, saying, "the original track was a real piece of s-t.
No matter what he did, John said he was sounding out of tune, so Paul went outside and grabbed two "Apple Scruffs" named Lizzie Bravo and Gaylene Pease to add the background harmonies. When The Beatles went to record it in February of 1968, both Lennon and McCartney decided they wanted falsetto harmonies on the song. This song is often cited as an example of tensions between Lennon and McCartney over treatment of each other's songs. Bird noises were dubbed in to this version to create a nature theme. This first appeared on No One's Gonna Change Our World, a 1969 charity album for the World Wildlife Fund (they're the ones who sued the World Wrestling Federation and made them stop using "WWF").
