The wonderful Ram Dass. I absolutely love this movie
One of the most profoundly moving and inspiring documentary films I have ever seen. Ram Dass talks openly about his experiences with his ageing process and willingly shows his vulnerability to his situation. His ability to put this into words is inspiring and left me feeling more resourced about any suffering in my own life.
The documentary is informative, funny and poignant and should appeal to any with yearning for honesty and understanding of life's dilemmas. The style of the movie doesn't try to be slick or clever or preachy. Ram Dass's spirituality is portrayed through his twinkling eyes as much as through his words.
Gives an interesting short historical leap into the late sixties / early seventies with footage of Timothy Leary and acid culture. The scenes of 400 hippies dancing on the lawns of Ram Dass's father's house is great. Would your father be OK with that?
This film was made after Ram Dass had his stroke which makes the film even more appealing as it shows how he coped and was forever the holy man we knew he was.A true story of healing on all levels.
Have some facial tissue handy as this film can put a tear or 2 in your eyes
Enjoy with buttered popcorn!
