    Yes indeed...you are there :)

    Who here has read BE HERE NOW by Baba Ram Dass?

    Or taken the acid test?

    Followed the Dead around the country and world...

    Those are hippie things... you didn't have to do drugs or live on the street to be a hippie, just believing in love and peace and knowing your true self.

    So happy to hear that!

    She's a good friend, living in Panama for the quarantine... saw her last three years ago in Santa Rosa, there was a gathering of souls from the old Morningstar Commune (aka the Digger Farm and Morning Star Ranch). It was groovy with music, dancing, singing... she spoke for two hours to us telling the story of how we all got together back then. It was great.

    She has a new book coming out with Ramon Sender.

    Hey guys! ✌ Sorry if it sounded like I was saying you gotta do everything on the list to be a hippie. Not what I was intending at all, friends. ❤ And I'm sorry if it came off that way. I was just wondering if there are any legit hippies here who DO do those things. By legit, I just mean people who considers themselves hippies as oppose to people who don't consider themselves hippies. :)

    Stop worrying. You did fine. xxx

    I think being HIP is just as good. xxx

    To be hip to something means you know something. When you're hip to the Cardi B and Offset drama, that means you understand what's going on.

    Never too young to be a legit hippie. An OG hippie, maybe. But certainly not too young to be a legit hippie. Many legit hippies of all ages can be found at rainbow gatherings, music festivals, etc. ✌ ☮

    As one who recalls the days of in my youth the Hippie was much more than the stereotype image of dugged up, sexed out and peace loving individual

    Ther was Ridicule, Persecution and Volence
    However, in adversity one can shine
    Conviction + Conscience = Character
    And with these attributes of virtue and honesty - ones true persona shines through - as Lennon put it ...

    In the US, it's the name of a hippie gathering. But they started in 1972. I think the word rainbow in the name is referencing tye dye. :)
