 BE HERE NOW led me to discover SEVA!Jul 28, 2010
I absolutely love RAM DASS & Be Here Now! If you also find him to be a spiritual leader, are impressed by this book, and want to follow his path, check out his organization SEVA! By supporting SEVA you can turn your compassion into action! [...].
Ram Dass founded Seva along with public health hero Dr. Larry Brilliant (also a follower of Neem Karoli Baba). The international health organization has done amazing work. They are perhaps best known for their work in preventable blindness, having restored sight to nearly 3 million blind people in places like Tibet, Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Pakistan, and throughout Africa. They also have a beautiful Native American Community Health program in the U.S.
Be Here Now taught me many important lessons about compassion and generosity. SEVA's alternative giving catalog called GIFTS OF SERVICE are a perfect way to put your compassion into action! Bookmark the page and think of it next time you want to give a gift! [...].
I give them for birthdays, anniversaries, wedding gifts, memorial gifts, for the holidays, and anytime I just want to show someone I care.
Thank you RAM DASS for all you have done for the world!
Love,
Sunshine

 A Shroom-Inspired Self Help BookApr 06, 2010
"Only that in you which is me can hear what I am saying," is one of many thought-provoking one-liners found in Baba Ram Dass's psychedelic self-help book. The book is generally entertaining, complete with creative illustrations, interesting stories, and spiritual enlightment. Some (a lot) of the book reads a little nonsensically, surely due to the gnarly LSD and magic mushroom trips this guy was on while writing it.
In a nutshell, it is the story of the author - a successful psychology professor who taught at prestigious schools, lectured, wrote books, had nice cars and lots of money. Professor Richard Alpert (as he was then called) was dismissed from Harvard University after researching and experimenting with "magic" mushrooms (psilocybin) and LSD. His research was done in collaberation with other well-known psychedelic pioneers such as Aldous Huxley, Timothy Leary and Allen Ginsberg. After leaving Harvard, Alpert traveled to India and became a Hindu spiritualist, changing his name to Baba Ram Dass.
This book may be valuable to you if are tripping, or just really, really high. Aside from some commentary about yoga, meditation, etc, I could see how it may seem no more than a cluttered, random, mess of hippie words and ideas to anyone who isn't in touch with their psychedelic side.
He may have tripped on mushrooms with Aldous Huxley, but this book is definitely no Brave New World.
Excellent book!Mar 19, 2010
This is a book about self motivation from a person of multiple professions. In the book he guides you through his journey of self fulfillment. The book is well structured can give anyone motivation to find their true self. I would personally recommend this book to any one of my friends; however, this book is not for all people. People who hold strong to their ideas and are unwilling to listen to anything else (Ex. extremely religious people) probably would not enjoy this book. Like anything else, it is good to not be closed minded before starting to read this book. It is not selling any specific idea, it's more of an awakening to appreciate the moments we live through.
A Guidebook for LifeMar 19, 2010
I love this book! It may seem a little "hippie-ish" in this day and age, but my best memories were in the late 60's and early 70's, and this book just makes me smile!
Read, and then re-read this book. This is the way to a happy, fullfilled life!
