Book Reviews of It's Here Now (Are You?)
Book Review: A book of great historical value.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a "spiritual memior" which describes Michael Riggs' (Bhagavan Das) spiritual search. His journey reads like a who's who of eastern religion. His Indian Guru was Neem Karoli Baba and his Buddhist guru was Kalu Rinpoche. In his travels he also has met "The Mother" from Sri Aurobindo's lineage, Dilgo Khyentse, Tarthang Tulku, Anandamayi Ma, Suzuki Roshi, Muktananda, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Sai Baba, Swami Prabhupada, Chogyam Trungpa, Alan Watts, Richard Alpert, Alan Ginsberg and many others. It may not be the best writing but it is a great tale. How wonderful to find such an open and honest work. For the seeker it is a tell-all from someone who has followed an extremely devoted path.
The book also functions as a glossary of terms. Every time Das uses a new hindu or buddhist term he explains it instead of assuming the reader knows them all.
Das also gives a good contrast between the Hindu and the Buddhist practices since he bounced back and forth between the two.
