This book review won the 27th Oho Literary Award in the Book Review category.
Spiritual leader Ram Dass guided generations of people seeking happiness and satisfaction in life with his now legendary 1971 book, Be Here Now. He was writing Still Here: Aging, Changing and Dying when he suffered a paralyzing stroke. That experience enlightened and expanded his perspective and the book, published in 2000, taught mindfulness practices to smooth the bumpy path of mounting losses we face at the end of life.
