I’m very familiar with his story and have read several of his books including the classic Be Here Now. This journey really started for me when I read The Psychedelic Experience by him, Timothy Leary, and Ralph Metzner 25 years ago when I was 20 years old. It’s been a difficult journey, but I now consider myself blessed for starting down this path.

Ran Dass has a great web site if you are unfamiliar with it. www.ramdass.org
