It's easy to dismiss Be Here Now as the relic of a whacked-out '60s acid tripper. Paging through the center section of the book, with its inch-high print and psychedelic drawings, you come across lines like: Magic Theatre For madmen...(more)

It changed my life

This book totally changed my life. It set my mind spinning from the first page and has since changed my entire way of viewing the world. I've let so many of my friends borrow it I can't even count them all. I love this book. It was the best gift I have ever recieved short of my own life.

stepping onto the path

gifted to my by my father -

this vast and wonderous wisdom inspired me to raise my head above the clouds and look about…
what i found there is an endless outpouring of co-creative consciousness expansion so sublimely beautiful to this day it captivates my soul and ecourages me to move forward trusting my own inner divine knowing… truely a first step of many on the return path to the one love/ one heart…

thank you ram das for being a true brother of the light -speaking your truth fearlessly and still with your divine humanity in full view for all to see.

one of the few books that  no matter where i've picked it up to read, spirit has this profound message for me…

the middle brown pages definately activate deeply seeded star knowledge and act as signposts to the hidden portals of the mind…on several occassions this humble work has lifted and resanctified my vision/perspective on life out of depressive states and into positive forward motion again.

pulled me out of a swamp

after experimenting with different psychedelics for some months i found myself in a very confused and alienated state of consciousness. this book was like a mother taking me into her comforting arms and assuring me that everything would be alright. it also led me to discover the path that i was meant to follow. kriya yoga. i am sure this book has saved many people who went too far out way too fast.

Be Here Now

This book found me in 1974 while I was living in Hawaii.

God can open doors in may strange ways. I saw Ram Dass later that year in the Islands and know he saved my life and pushed me into a higher plane, but like Richard I continued to do LSD for a few more years. I'm so grateful for the pain and the light.

Yes, this book did change my life. Thank God.

THIS WAS THE ONE THAT WOKE ME UP

There’s no other way to state it.

I’d been seeking for about 6-ish years, kind of flirting with meditation and devouring knowledge. But I kept adding books to the shelf of my mind without really practicing anything.

Be Here Now changed all that. A decade later, I look back on my early conception of spiritual understanding and realize how far I had to come.

Thank you Ram Dass. This isn’t a stack of papers - for me it was a living document that reached out to my heart and began the transformation.
