Book Reviews of Here We All Are
Book Review: Interesting historic document
Summary: 4 Stars
This audio-CD contains a more than 2 h. long lecture from Ram Dass (aka dr. Richard Albert), just returned from India and sharing his newfound enthusiasm for meditation and service with an appreciative audience. And telling the story of his life from succesful young professor over his psychedelic days with Timothy Leary and others to his meeting with his guru Neem Karoli Baba.
Unlike many others from the sixties Ram Dass has stayed true his whole life to his insights and his guru, standing like George Harrison or Stanislav Grof as symbols of the enduring influence of the East and of a succesful combination of meditation and psychedelics.
As always Ram Dass' lecture is both witty and profound, but there's not really much new here, nothing he hasn't told somewhere else in his varied work as writer.
The bonus-CD contains mantras and songs (kirtan) from his "Be Here Now"-tour, obviously directly transfered from a rather worn-out LP-copy. But it's moving and beautiful, complete with coughing, campfire guitar and crying babies, and touching the heart. But a very far cry indeed from todays musically challenging kirtan and mantrapop releases, by artists like Krishna Das, Jai Uttal (both also Neem karoli-disciples), Deva Premal, Rasa, Snatam Kaur to name just a few of the more artistically and commercially succesful.
I'm grateful this release came my way, and can recommend it to everyone interested in eastern spirituality and in psychedelics, and as an introduction to the beautiful world of Ram Dass. But I doubt it's something I will hear very often.
