?
Some of their best songs have Indian instruments:
Norwegian Wood
Strawberry Fields
Tomorrow Never Knows
I guess going to India and living with the Maharishi dude was a scam but it seems like they did get something out of it artistically.

they made good use of a lot of the indian elements
the guitar solo on Taxman for example, is awesome and totally unique because it's like an indian raga, sped up. same w/ the solo on Good Morning, Good Morning.
the songs that incorporated indian elements -- norwegian wood, strawberry fields, dear prudence, etc -- were great. the 3 or 4 straight-up indian sitar jams (within you without you, love you to, inner light), are corny and almost unlistenable.

it resulted in the song "sexy sadie," which is one of my favorites by them.
lennon finally figured out that the maharishi was full of shit and wrote the song about him, just replaced "maharishi" with "sexy sadie." (i believe the story behind that is harrison freaked out and refused to let the song on the album as is, so lennon changed the lyric.)
