The Book of the Dead is an ancient Egyptian funerary text written on papyrus and used from the beginning of the New Kingdom. The book was placed in the coffin or burial chamber of the deceased, and was part of a tradition of funerary texts which includes the earlier Pyramid Texts and Coffin Texts, which were painted onto objects, not written on papyrus.

In these talks, Ram Dass speaks openly about devotion, service, and the inner transformation that comes through love rather than effort. He returns again and again to Hanuman as the clearest expression of this path—not as a story or belief, but as a living example of selfless service, humility, and unwavering dedication to truth.

Newly discovered and preserved in their original form, these lectures present Ram Dass speaking directly and without mediation. There is no polish and no performance—only the teaching as it arises in the moment.

In these extended talks, Ram Dass speaks at length about truth and divine love as direct experience rather than belief. He examines how the search for meaning often becomes entangled with ego, identity, and fear, and how those same obstacles can become the doorway to awakening when met with awareness.

This recording brings together the clearest, most enduring wisdom shared by Ram Dass—spoken from the place where spirituality meets ordinary human life. Here, Ram Dass speaks not as a guru above experience, but as a fellow traveler. He talks openly about ego, fear, desire, love, suffering, aging, and death—not as problems to solve, but as realities to be met with awareness and compassion. His words move gently between humor and gravity, reminding the listener that awakening is not an escape from life, but a deeper participation in it.

In Being the Guru, Ram Dass turns the teaching inward, examining what happens when responsibility replaces seeking. This recording includes a full biographical narrative, interwoven with talks that explore the transition from student to teacher, from devotion to embodiment.

Throughout history, some of the most thoughtful minds have advocated that life does not end with the death of our body, but continues via a process known as reincarnation. The Vedic literature advocates that the soul, or atma, gives life to the body. Life does not arise from a particular combination of material elements as some modern scientists theorize. At the time of death, we leave one body and enter a new one. That is called reincarnation.
