BE HERE NOW - RAM DASS KARTONIERT (TB)

Beloved guru Ram Dass tells the story of his spiritual awakening and gives you the tools to
take control of your life in this counterculture bible (The New York Times) featuring powerful
guidance on yoga  meditation  and finding your true self.When Be Here Now was first published
in 1971  it filled a deep spiritual emptiness  launched the ongoing mindfulness revolution  and
established Ram Dass as perhaps the preeminent seeker of the twentieth century.Just ten years
earlier  he was known as Professor Richard Alpert. He held appointments in four departments at
Harvard University. He published books  drove a Mercedes and regularly vacationed in the
Caribbean. By most societal standards  he had achieved great success. . . . And yet he couldn t
escape the feeling that something was missing. Psilocybin and LSD changed that. During a period
of experimentation  Alpert peeled away each layer of his identity  disassociating from himself
as a professor  a social cosmopolite  and lastly  as a physical being. Fear turned into
exaltation upon the realization that at his truest  he was just his inner-self: a luminous
being that he could trust indefinitely and love infinitely.And thus  a spiritual journey
commenced. Alpert headed to India where his guru renamed him Baba Ram Dass servant of God. He
was introduced to mindful breathing exercises  hatha yoga  and Eastern philosophy. If he found
himself reminiscing or planning  he was reminded to Be Here Now. He started upon the path of
enlightenment  and has been journeying along it ever since.Be Here Now is a vehicle for sharing
the true message  and a guide to self-determination.
