Carefully examining both Eastern and Western spiritual traditions, he offers wisdom tempered with reality. His point—when you lose your fear of death, you gain a love for life—holds profound meaning for the young and old. Here is a spiritual discussion about moving beyond our youth-fixated culture, to a place where we can see clearly that the final years of life can be just as creative and fulfilling as the early years.

Conscious Aging is a masterwork that will speak to you personally about living each day with an open heart, knowing that the most incredible stage of your experience has yet to come.

Ram Dass is a cofounder of the Prison Ashram Project and the Love Serve Remember Foundation, and the author of many books, including Be Love Now. That's the bio, anyway. You'll learn much more about him inside, as he uses his own life stories to illustrate the relevance of the Gita for all of us today.
