As featured in the Ram Dass documentary film Becoming Nobody, five essential live teaching sessions on audio, presented here in their entirety. The game is not about becoming somebody, it's about becoming nobody. -Ram Dass. If you're a spiritual explorer of any age or tradition, chances are you've heard of Ram Dass. This singular luminary began his "somebody training" as Richard Alpert-the 1960's Harvard-psychologist-turned-hippie who tripped with Timothy Leary, befriended beat poets and Tibetan lamas, found his lifelong guru in India, and wrote the perennial classic Be Here Now. That's the "somebody" part of his story. But for those who've experienced Ram Dass live as he shares his insights and personal journey on the way to becoming nobody-he has been for many the spark that ignited them to the liberating truth of who we really are. This audio collection brings us five essential sessions, featured in the Ram Dass documentary film Becoming Nobody, presented here in their entirety. Each beautifully illuminates a core dimension of Ram Dass's wisdom. Through teaching stories, true accounts, eye-opening revelations, and his one-of-a-kind sense of humor, this legendary teacher helps show us the way out of the prison of our self-identity-and into the joy of being at once "nobody" and the universal divine at play in the world.… (more)

A warm compilation of talks and teachings from Ram Dass, reminding us of why he was such a resonant and relevant spiritual voice. Not certain of the precise date of the talks, but I believe most of them were from the 1980's/90's. Considering how far back they date, the sound quality is quite good...and the lessons are eternally on point. He'll be missed, but he would've been the first to say, he hasn't gone anywhere. ( )
