October 12, 2018 Bhagavan Das: Confessions of a Spiritual Playboy
In this episode I speak with Bhagavan Das, who became famous in the early 1970s after Ram Dass featured him in the book that started the American yoga boom, Be Here Now.
His fame led to him becoming something of a rockstar in the burgeoning spiritual scene, leading kirtans for thousands of people all over the world, gaining followers and groupies and infamy as a “spiritual playboy”. Recently, Bhagavan Das released an open letter on Facebook acknowledging and apologizing for his mistreatment of women during this time, and is actively engaging in a campaign to open up a dialogue around this issue, in an attempt to right past wrongs and learn from his mistakes. His hashtag for this campaign is #morehearnow, which emphasizes the importance of listening as we move forward on the path toward reconciliation and healing the male/female dynamic in our culture and the world.
