A celebration of Neem Karoli Baba, one of the most influential
spiritual leaders of our time, the divine guru who inspired and led
a generation of seekers-including Ram Dass, Daniel Goleman, and
Larry Brilliant-on life-changing journeys that have ultimately
transformed our world. In 1967, Baba Ram Dass-former American
Harvard professor Richard Alpert-left India to share stories of his
mysterious guru, Neem Karoli Baba, known as Maharajji. Introducing
idealistic Western youth to the possibilities inherent in spiritual
development, Ram Dass inspired a generation to turn on and tune in
to a reality far different from the one they had known. From the
spring of 1970 until Maharajji died on September 11, 1973, several
hundred Westerners had his darshan (in Hinduism, the beholding of a
deity, revered person, or sacred object). Those who saw him formed
the Maharajji satsang-fellow travelers on the path. Love Everyone
tells the stories of those who heard the siren call of the East and
followed it to the foothills of the Himalayas. The ways they were
called to make the journey, their experiences along the way, and
their meeting with Maharajji form the core of this multicultural
adventure in shifting consciousness. The contributors share their
recollections of Maharajji and how his wisdom shaped their lives.
All have attempted to follow Maharajji's basic teaching, his
seemingly simple directives: Love everyone, feed everyone, and
remember God. All have found their own way to be of service in the
world and, in so doing, have collectively touched the hearts and
souls of countless others.
