Sublime is the experience of of Destiny’s gentle wind through our hair as we wander the new road to Shangrilla.

 

It has been said that we live in a 3 dimensional reality. Our perception of this so called reality is experienced through what we name the 5 senses of sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. The most prevalent of these is the sense of sight, and the way we interpret this reality in our everyday experience is to witness what is all around us through the lens of our eyes, and what we observe is what appears to be a tangible model of 3 dimensional Space: height, width, and depth.

But the Awakened Masters, throughout the ages, have told us that the 5 senses cannot be relied upon to give us an accurate picture of reality. And modern Science also points to this fact, that the reality we observe, what appears to be a solid construction of tangible form is nothing more then a swirling multitude of countless atoms, molecules, protons, neutrons and other scientific theories that totally undermines that assumption. One look under a high powered microscope will completely change our viewpoint.

But what about Time? It has also been speculated that beyond this 3 dimensional world of Space is another dimension, that of Time.

The Mayan people of ancient Meso-America were worshipers of Time. They devised a calender which many believe decoded the mysteries of the sacred pattern of the Universe.  Much attention has been given to this belief over the last year due to the interpretation of many truth seekers that 2012 was the year of completion of a 5000 year cycle of Time, according to ancient Maya.

What has occurred to me over the years, as a seeker of truth, was that Music somehow fell into the realm of the 4th dimension. This mystical, intangible force that can stir our  hearts with powerful emotion, has a special place in this universal cosmic scheme: Music is relative to Time.

Be Here Now – Ram Dass 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This magical book, published in 1971 by Ram Dass, formerly Richard Alpert, Harvard professor and colleague of Timothy Leary , documents his personal story from Harvard PhD. to counter culture advocate of psychedelic mind altering substances to enlightened mystic of the Indian yoga tradition.

Handbook of higher consciousness at the height of the Hippie  movement, Remember Be Here Now  went on to become a national best seller and entertaining guide to a generation of truth seekers.

As “Sheaf” arts editor, Greg Reese explains:

” Richard Alpert was a professor at Harvard when he and the infamous Timothy Leary flew to Mexico and took psilocybin for the first time, the unique effects of which set them on a mission with huge ramifications from the ’60s onwards.”

”

Remember, Be Here Now is a combination of autobiography, educational comic book and guide to higher consciousness. But, despite this bizarre combination, it makes for a fascinating and entertaining read.

Alpert (now called Ram Dass) documents his and Leary’s expulsion from Harvard, after other faculty members and administrators called their experiments with LSD into question. They were, in fact, experimenting on themselves and probably got carried away as people on acid are wont to do.

LSD was declared illegal in the late ’60s. Subsequently, Leary and Alpert were forced to continue their work outside of the system.

Timothy Leary promoted unchecked LSD use throughout his life, championing the time worn slogan: “turn on, tune in, drop out.” Alpert, on the other hand, travelled to India and became completely taken with esoteric Hinduism.

The biography includes some colourful (sometimes fantastical) accounts from an ashram where guru Neem Karoli Baba teaches. Actually, to be clear, he just sits around and says funny things and, occasionally, blasts his disciples with profound wisdom. He makes for a wild and highly unusual character.”

”

Despite seeming moderate in comparison to Timothy Leary — even speaking about the triviality of drug use in comparison to meditation, yoga and other spiritual exercises — Ram Dass still glorifies psychedelic drug use in Be Here Now. And I’m sure this will turn off a lot of potential readers.

Admittedly, many people who take psychedelic drugs are not trying to (and do not) learn about themselves. More than a few people have not been enlightened, in any way, by their experiences with psychedelics.

On the other hand, the war on drugs is clearly ridiculous and a waste of money and time — easily creating as many problems as the ones it pretends to solve. And, as Ram Dass demonstrates, drug use can have positive consequences.

Besides, Be Here Now serves as a great insight into the generation no one can forget.”
