More than thirty years ago, an entire generation sought a new way of life, looking for fulfillment and meaning in a way no one had before. Leaving his teaching job at Harvard, Ram Dass embodied the role of spiritual seeker, showing others how to find peace within themselves in one of the greatest spiritual classics of the twentieth century, Be Here Now. Now, as many of that generation enter the autumn of their years, the big questions of peace and of purpose have returned, demanding answers. And once again, Ram Dass blazes a new trail, inviting all to join him on the next stage of the journey.

Still Getting Older

Ram Dass is such an engaging writer and this book is a must for anyone dealing with debilitating illness and aging or for seniors who are beginning to feel or become curious about the onset of aging. And of course any age person can gain from his profound wisdom. As in Be Here Now, he directs our consciousness to the present moment and guides us through a conscious approach to aging (and dying) and as you read it you notice that it just really makes you feel better about yourself, living in a constantly changing world, dying, and the aging process. It is funny too and as you laugh at his descriptions of his own life experiences, you realize that you are really having a grand laugh at yourself. Reading his book is a great way to sit quietly with yourself, as the reading of it feels like a meditation in it self. Reading this book relieves and quiets your worrying mind by putting words to familiar human experience that have perhaps not previously been as speech ripe in your mind as they are as you read his writing. I felt such peace as I read it. Still Here is on my Christmas list to gift many of my friends and family.

Great piece on aging

I saw a DVD on Ram Dass's life after his stroke and got this to get more. I was inspired by this book, and I don't inspire easy. Utah Phillips said "No matter how new age you are, old age will kick your ass!". Until I read this, I did not have a good map of how to age with grace, and Ram Dass gives it to us as a gift. Thanks, Ram Dass!


even when he's not..he's dtill here

a great companion for those of us beginning the end game.He writes with humor, sincerity and knowledge of one who has been there and has come back to share his insights into the terrain of aging.


letting go and going on

This book has opened me up to freedom/enlightment on where I'm going and how I'm getting their!

Iinspiring book.

This is an inspiring book. I bought it to my parents as a gift and got drawn into it my self. I recommend all to look up an interview video with Ram Dass - "Ecstatic States". I have watched it more than dozen times, yet, its beauty and inherent wisdom never stopped to amaze me.
