Only Ringo rejected it outright. While they became disenchanted with the Maharishi(Sexy Sadie), the practice of transcendental meditation was still valid. John moved on eventually, but Paul said even recently that he still meditates.

Besides, I don't think that's a religion. It's more like Yoga. George got into Hinduism, not as a believer, but to better understand India.
