    I once saw a bumper sticker that said

    "I'd rather be here, now."

    The bus belonged to someone I met on this web site, too, come to think of it...

    When I bought my first copy in the '70s the price was $3.33

    I think that unusual price was a take on the symbol for AUM

    I read this book when I was 18. It definitely has some good stuff in it. I watched the documentary Ram Dass: Fierce Grace. It has some good clips with Richard Alpert and Timothy Leary in it. Mostly it is about Ram Dass dealing with his stroke.

    You can find this book for free on the internet in minutes and probably read it in 30. Oops, didn't say that.

    an amazing work. i permanently borrowed mine from the local public library... after, of course, paying the customary 'lost book' fee :p
