Publisher's Summary

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.

My Bible for living an anxious free life

I find Ram Dass completely engaging. I have listened to this book at least 20 times and each time I hear a deeper message that I put into use. Very helpful if you are experiencing trauma or loss in my opinion, I only wish there were a printed version as well. The knowledge shared here is like a gift that keeps on giving.

A beautiful masterpiece.

Ram Dass shares openly and honestly from his life story a way for all of us to touch the freedom and joy, the pain and suffering, all at the same time, creating a whole moment and a pathway of completeness.

Too short

Full of excellent content but rather short for what I expected of an audio book.

Indispensable.

Wonderful Ram Dass. Simply grace. What grace to be able to listen to, what grace to chance by. If you have the opportunity to listen, don't pass it by.

Historic Dharma recordings

A series of back dated dharma talks that have been remastered. Insightful and easy to listen to although some of the ‘meatier’ stuff can be challenging if you’re not already a good distance into your own self discovery journey.

Fabulous read

What an Incredible book? It was sent to me by a good friend and how lucky I am to have taken the time to listen.
I Absolutely recommend this book to anyone, it will leave you with wonderful insights about life and death.
It might even give you a new and refreshing way to see yourself and new possibilities on how to love yourself as you are, and in turn love those around you for who they are not what they have done.
Thank you Ram Das
