Ep. 94 – Ram Dass & Mirabai Bush

In this book, Ram Dass and Mirabai Bush explore the ways to be present with dying and help others leave this world consciously. Through personal experiences and timeless practices, they offer guidance on being a 'loving rock' for the dying, grieving fully and authentically, transforming fear of death, leaving a spiritual legacy, and creating a sacred space for dying. The book emphasizes living and dying consciously, treating death as a spiritual practice, and finding love and presence in the face of mortality.

Be Here Now is a seminal book on spirituality, yoga, and meditation written by Ram Dass. The book is divided into four sections: 'Journey', which details Ram Dass's transformation from a Harvard psychologist to a spiritual seeker; 'From Bindu to Ojas', a core section that includes spiritual themes and inspirational quotes; 'Cookbook for a Sacred Life', a manual for conscious living with practical advice on meditation, yoga, and diet; and 'Painted Cakes (Do Not Satisfy Hunger)', a list of recommended books for further spiritual exploration. The book emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment, shedding ego and material attachments, and finding unity with the divine through unconditional love and mindfulness.
