<p>From Ram Dass, one of America’s most beloved spiritual figures and bestselling author of <em>Be Here Now</em> and <em>Be Love Now,</em> comes this timeless classic about the experience of being and the risks and rewards of our spiritual path. Originally published in 1976, <em>Grist for the Mill</em> offers a deep spiritual journey of self-discovery, and a universal understanding of what it means to "be" and to grow as human beings. The book is fully revised with a new introduction.</p><p>As Ram Dass puts it, "When the faith is strong enough it is sufficient just to be. It’s a journey towards simplicity, towards quietness, towards a kind of joy that is not in time. It’s a journey that has taken us from primary identification with our body and our psyche, on to an identification with God, and ultimately beyond identification."</p>
