Greetings from Southern California 
I read Be Here Now years ago and over the last few years, have found a sense of peace and refuge listening to Ram Dass’s teachings on the Be Here Now podcast. I’m here to explore in community and practice embracing what is. Grateful to be joining you all

Hi @Eliz_rice and @wayne_coursol
I love hearing the connection. And also the uncertainty of why you are here. Whatever unfolds it will be exactly what is needed. I hope you get both reconnected and a little more spirit in daily life!
Greetings from the mountains in North Carolina. My first introduction to mantra was listening to Ram Dass. My journey these last few years with mantra & meditation has given me such profound connection to life and the unseen world beyond. I look forward to growing here as well. I have listened to Be Here Now.

Hello I’m Gita and live in the UK. I’ve read ‘Be here now’ and discover something new every time. Like the Bhagavad Gita the knowledge unfolds and I’m looking forward to learning and practicing. I’m seeking authenticity, connection and knowledge. Hari Om x

Hi there beautiful souls! My name is Kim, and I primarily reside on Powhatan land, now called Richmond, VA, US. My first intro to Ram Dass was via my previous psychotherapist and mentor who remained friends with RD after being colleagues in the 1960s. My intention for joining this course is further movement towards community, and the wise container of the satsang. So grateful to be here

Hi everyone.
My name is Sarah and I’m from Brisbane, Australia.
I first heard of Ram Dass when searching for meditations in 2020 and am grateful for this opportunity to be guided into more of his work through this course.
My intention for the course is to incorporate one new habit or teaching into my life that will enrich the way that I live.

Greetings all! My name is Laylah, joining from Portland, Oregon. I first heard about Ram Dass by accident, just wandering on the interwebs. I have read Be Here Now, and count myself super fortunate to be able to join this wonderful community and to participate in this course. I am hoping to reconnect with spiritual practice, as my practice has fallen by the wayside these past few years. So excited to be on this journey with everyone here.

Hi, I am Birgit from Germany. I followed Ram Dass since some years from afar. I was deeply moved by his never ending revealing of loving openess and I hope to learn more from his way - I have a little bit difficulties to find the adequate expressions, but I hope it is somehow understandable. thank you for offering this course!

Hi, I’m Rob from Simi Valley, California.
I first heard about Ram Dass when I saw him speak at the John Anson Ford Amphitheatre around 1987-88 along with Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner, Terence McKenna, and others for a MAPS or Albert Hofmann Foundation event.
I read Be Here Now when Lord Buckley’s son lent me his copy a few years later.

Greetings everyone. I live on the spectacular Sunshine Coast, BC, Canada in a little town known as Roberts Creek. We’re not too far from the big city on Vancouver but the only way here is by ferry, so I guess far enough. I live a 5 minute walk to the ocean, mountain creek right outside my front door, eagles, bear, deer all around on the edge of the Coastal Mountain Range. I love it here!!
I first met Ram Dass back in the 70’s by attending some of his early talks here and there. And I read Be Here Now shortly after its release. I’ve been listening to him ever since. He’s become a really good buddy and I am with him every day.
My intention? Well, I suppose my intention is just to fall further and deeper into that place where Jesus meditated from, that place of Love and keep sharing that feeling with fine folks like y’all and everyone.
Many BlesSings and much Love
