Come on a psychedelic journey to enlightenment with Ram Dass (aka, Richard Alpert) who, along with Timothy Leary, was kicked out of Harvard for LSD experiments in the 1960’s. After that glimpse behind the curtain of life, Alpert traveled to India, studied intensively with his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, and was given the name Ram Dass which means \u201cServant of God.\u201d He returned and wrote the definitive book, Be Here Now<\/em><\/strong> and became the spiritual father of the 60’s. The rest is history\u2026<\/p>\n
