Paths To God

by Ram Dass

World-renowned philosopher and spiritual teacher Ram Dass—author of the groundbreaking classic Be Here Now—presents an accessible guide to the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, and much, much, more. Ram Dass in his often humorous, always entertaining way also shares much about the traditional practice of yoga and offers many, personal anectdotes and illustrative stories, from his own rich and colorful life to demonstrate how spiritual practice can be applied to everything we do. This is a far reaching book is part scholarly analysis of the Bhagavad Gita, part guide to practice and part auto biography shared with the warmth, love and compassion for which Ram Dass is known.
