"There can be no biography of him. Facts are few, stories many. He seems to have been known by different names in many parts of India, appearing and disappearing through the years. His western devotees of recent years knew him as 'Neem Karoli Baba,' but mostly as 'Maharajii'--a nickname so commonplace in India that one can often hear a tea vendor addressed thus. Just as he said, he was 'Nobody.' He gave no discourses; the briefest, simplest stories were his teachings. Usually he sat or lay on a wooden bench wrapped in a plaid blanket while a few devotees sat around him. Visitors came and went; they were given food, a few words, a nod, a slap on the head or back, and they were sent away. There was gossip and laughter for he loved to joke. Orders for running the ashram were given, usually in a piercing yell across the compound. Sometimes he sat in silence, absorbed in another world to which we could not follow, but bliss and peace poured down on us. Who he was was no more than the experience of him, the nectar of his presence, the totality of his absence--enveloping us now like his plaid blanket. --Anjani In 1967 I met Neem Karoli Baba, a meeting which changed the course of my life. In the depth of his compassion, wisdom, humor, power and love I found human possibility never before imagined...an extraordinary integration of spirit and form. I was with him only briefly for he left his body in 1973, still he entered my heart as living truth, and his presence continues to enrich and guide my life.

How Can I Help

This book is based on talks by Ram Dass at the Menninger Foundation in 1970 and at the Spring Grove Hospital in Maryland in 1972. The text grew out of the interaction between Ram Dass and the spiritual seekers in attendance at these talks. The result of this unique exchange is a useful guide for understanding the nature of consciousness--useful both to other spiritual seekers and to formally trained psychologists. It is also a celebration of the Dance of Life--which, in the words of Ram Dass, is the "only dance there is."

One review states: - Be a connoisseur of your neuroses. - With bare attention consume your impurities. - Take whatever comes down the pike. - Everything is grist for the mill. - Not "this" or "that" but "whatever". - Keep giving up your story line. - All of life is a meditation cushion. It's all meditation. - You are the fire and fire doesn't burn itself. - Leave behind every model you have had of who you think you are. - You are going to suffer if you cling to anything in form. - Disappear into the void - the Crisp Trip. - Stop romanticizing your story. - Going to G-d is going into that which is beyond form. - We created our separateness for sport. - What we are looking for is who is looking. - In despair we give up all our hope and all our models. - Stay in form but be with G-d. Breathe in the breath of G-d. - Sit there watching the pain and suffering. - The only thing that dies is another set of thoughts of who we were in this lifetime. - Our entire life drama is food for our awakening. - Be like two mirrors facing each other with nothing in between. - The human intellect is very trivial in the greater design of things. - Cut the puppet strings. - Peel yourself like an onion. - Be a lighthouse sending peace and love to all those who are suffering.
