Summary

Still Here: Embracing Aging, Changing, and Dying is Ram Dass' reflection on the joys, pains, and opportunities that appear as we age. In 1997, Ram Dass suffered a nearly incapacitating stroke that affected his speech and movement. Over the next two years, he worked to regain his damaged capacities. From this experience he has produced a timely and thoughtful book that touches an important contemporary issue - our fears and apprehension about aging.

In the 1960s Ram Dass was a Harvard professor who turned to Eastern religion to answer the questions troubling his generation. He shared his story in the landmark classic, Be Here Now, which instantly captured the spiritual longings of his contemporaries. In Still Here, Ram Dass once again brings understanding, common sense, and reassurance for those of us facing the final season of life.

Realistic & identifiable

His voice is relaxing, even with an anxiety-provoking subject. The book helped me to accept the inevitable & to act accordingly.

Very interesting perspective

Enlightened reading. This puts a very down to earth focus on the challenges we face spiritually, physically and mentally. Worth listening to.

Engaging

I enjoyed this book but it felt a little self-indulgent on the author's part at times.
