I've heard Bhagavan Das sing some bhajans at Amma's

New York programs (2000-01-02), and perhaps one of the

Rhode Island retreats as well. The first time I saw

him in NYC I thought he looked like Lord Shiva! (but

without the snakes around his neck!) Got one of his

CDs ("Now") enjoy it very much.

 

I don't know much, or care much, about Ram Dass, other

than that he almost died of a stroke a few years

back..I was only a grade-schooler in the late 1960s so

I missed out on all that trippy LSD stuff!

No snakes, but the first time I saw him, he actually had a vial of water in

his hair that was dripping down (as Shiva is depicted with the Ganges

flowing out of his hair). Obviously he was trying to look like Lord Shiva.
