About Us: Walking Each Other Home

Welcome to BabaRamDass.com, a digital sanctuary dedicated to the path of the heart. Inspired by the life and teachings of Baba Ram Dass and his guru, Neem Karoli Baba (Maharajji), our platform serves as a bridge between ancient Eastern wisdom and the modern seeker’s journey.

Our Vision

We believe that at the core of every human being is “Loving Awareness.” Our mission is to cultivate a space where devotion (Bhakti), service (Seva), and truth-seeking converge. In a world of constant change, we look to the timeless message of “Be Here Now”—a reminder to live fully in the present moment with an open heart.

Who was Baba Ram Dass?

Once a prominent Harvard psychologist named Dr. Richard Alpert, Ram Dass’s life took a radical turn in 1967 when he traveled to India. There, he met Maharajji, a meeting that dissolved his ego and transformed his understanding of consciousness. Renamed Ram Dass (“Servant of God”), he returned to the West to become a pivotal influence on global spirituality, blending humor, deep intellect, and profound devotion to guide millions toward their own inner divinity.

The Path of Bhakti (Devotion)

On this website, we emphasize the Bhakti Marga—the path of love and devotion. To us, Bhakti isn’t just a ritual; it is a way of seeing the Beloved in everyone and everything. Through the practice of Kirtan (devotional chanting), meditation, and the study of sacred teachings, we aim to quiet the mind and enter the “spiritual heart.”

What You Will Find Here

  • Teachings & Wisdom: Insights into the lectures, books, and timeless reflections of Ram Dass.
  • Bhakti Practices: Resources for chanting, mantra practice (like the Hanuman Chalisa), and cultivating a daily devotional life.
  • The Spirit of Seva: Encouragement to turn our spiritual realizations into compassionate action and service to others.
  • Community: A gathering place for those “walking each other home”—supporting one another as we navigate the complexities of life and the mysteries of the soul.

Love Everyone, Serve Everyone, Tell the Truth

These were the simple yet profound instructions given by Neem Karoli Baba. We strive to embody these principles in everything we share. Whether you are a lifelong devotee or a curious seeker just starting your journey, we invite you to sit with us, breathe with us, and remember the love that we all are.

Jai Hanuman. Jai Maharajji.
