I have high hopes for this year's circle. 3 Construction Begins on the Dargah by Austin Ravi Babcock Construction began on Murshid Sam’s Dargah in August, the result of much preparation. A written contract was signed by Lama Foundation and Sufi Ruhaniat International (SRI) in March, both boards of trustees working hard to flesh out the agreement. The project manager, Malik Braun, has been at Lama since early August and I am deeply impressed by his ability to hold Lama’s interests in his heart. I am serving as the Lama-SRI liaison, and Jai Cross is serving as the land remediation advisor. Rebecca Rodger, Lama Coordinator, is keeping abreast of construction and informing the residents and others of progress. Together, we are overseeing the entire construction process and providing reports to the trustees. As many know, deciding to move forward with the Dargah has been heart- rending for Lama. Genuine differences continue to exist about the wisdom of the project. It feels good to report that things have nevertheless unfolded in beautiful ways. Many came to the Dargah before construction to offer prayers and consecrate the site, and various beans have visited the Dargah to lovingly witness construction and wish the project well. Many people are working to ensure that the project unfolds in ways that respect the Lama community, Sam's legacy, the mountain, and the wider world of which the Dargah is part. In mid-August, physical work began, clearing a path for access, and identifying trees for transplant. Along with being liaison for the project, I have also worked hand in hand with the crew since mid-August. This has been physically demanding, but a blessing for me. Although the appearance of the Dargah has changed, I still feel that special feeling I have always felt there. Steve Torres carefully carved the access road in late August, and Scott MacHardy, the contractor for this phase, oversaw excavation around the Dargah. His crew completed two eight-sided footers that surround the gravesite. Carefully digging and working in these conditions made this a truly monumental feat. The final step is to pour the slab, so there will be a continuous floor from the footer to the perimeter around the existing stone mound. The slab will provide protection for the foundation through winter, when we will close down the site and the access-way. In laying out the project up to the National Forest, it became clear that the stone mound would not be centered in the Dargah, as originally planned. The Forest Service came up with GPS to ensure that we did not encroach on their land. After carefully exploring this important detail with both boards of trustees, it was decided to continue with the stone mound unmoved. This was a painful decision since the sacred geometry of the Dargah was compromised. However, not moving the mound felt most appropriate to maintain the sanctity of the Dargah’s presence and preserve the decades-long outpouring of prayers, tears, and well wishes from those who have visited the site. The main phase of construction will commence next year, when the above ground structure is expected to be completed. Malik and Rebecca are narrowing down the construction schedule, which will likely begin in spring and proceed in phases so as to minimize disruptions to Lama’s summer. This is a complicated project, because of complex construction details and heart-sensitivity. As I go up the mountain each morning, I find a neat and well cared for workspace. There is a calm and peaceful feeling, shared by all who are at work here. Everyone who comes up - truck drivers, laborers, building inspectors - express gratitude for this unique project, and I feel a deep respect for Murshid Sam in my heart in all the moments that I am there. 4 Autumnal Dargah Remediation Report by Jai Cross I love ponderosa pines. I appreciate their majestic growth, the way their branches spread widely, how their long needles move and whisper in the breeze, their furrowed and aromatic bark, but it’s more than just an appreciation of their natural beauty. I feel a special affinity with this particular tribe of forest trees, something of a close personal relationship. So it was a great blessing to head up the land restoration team at Lama Foundation which planted thousands of bare root ponderosa seedlings after the Hondo Fire.

  • 2014 Lama Alive
    Lama Alive 2014/2015 From the Coordinator Monday and Tuesday we sat inevitably arise. Yet, it is for these breakdowns that I have in consensus. On Wednesday we chosen to step into this curriculum. It’s from these became a circle, and we danced in groundless places that I can find footing on the ground of the Dome. Starlight sparkled through compassion, and build from there a sounder foundation the roof and candlelight encircled us. and the ability to more fully serve our collective purpose. We blessed our spring on Thursday, I believe that we, as an extended community, have amidst the fallen golden treasure of been stepping into difficult places in ourselves and in our the aspens. Friday, our circle of eight relationships for this very reason. The dargah project has sat around the kitchen table, each touched many of our hearts: opened them, broken them, taking her place at a side of the Lama and my wish is that it will also be of service to the ongoing octagon. We sang the Barhu, our voices reverberating out process of healing them. I pray that we may find a way into over the darkening blue ocean of the mesa, “When I call deepened compassion for ourselves and one another; that on the light of my soul, I come home.” this project may be a boon to our common intention And what a magical place to call home. I remember toward awakening. I pray that it not separate us, but bring the first Shabbat service I attended at Lama - then a us together, and closer to One.

  • Baba Ram Dass, Proponent of LSD and New Age Enlightenment, Dies at 88 - the New York Times
    12/23/2019 Baba Ram Dass, Proponent of LSD and New Age Enlightenment, Dies at 88 - The New York Times Baba Ram Dass, Proponent of LSD and New Age Enlightenment, Dies at 88 Born Richard Alpert, he returned from a trip to India as a bushy-bearded, barefoot, white-robed guru and wrote more than a dozen inspirational books. By Douglas Martin Dec. 23, 2019 Updated 4:52 a.m. ET Baba Ram Dass, who epitomized the 1960s of legend by popularizing psychedelic drugs with Timothy Leary, a fellow Harvard academic, before finding spiritual inspiration in India, died on Sunday at his home on Maui. He was 88. The death of Ram Dass, who was born Richard Alpert, was announced on his official Instagram account. Having returned from India as a bushy-bearded, barefoot, white-robed guru, Ram Dass became a peripatetic lecturer on New Age possibilities and a popular author of more than a dozen inspirational books. The first of his books, “Be Here Now” (1971), sold more than two million copies, and established him as an exuberant exponent of finding salvation through helping others. He started a foundation to combat blindness in India and Nepal, supported reforestation in Latin America, and developed health education programs for American Indians in South Dakota. He was particularly interested in the dying. He started a foundation to help people use death as a journey of spiritual awakening and spoke of establishing a self-help line, “Dial-a-Death,” for this purpose. When Mr. Leary was dying in 1996 — and wishing to do it “actively and creatively,” as he put it — he called for Ram Dass.

Lama Alive In This Issue: Dear friends of Lama Foundation, Coordinator‘s Letter … 3 A flat, melancholic feeling used to arise when I was an activist, living in a cubicle apartment in Chicago. Focused on what I found Winter Circle … 4 wrong with the world, I felt trapped in negativity. Beyond Farewell Friend … 5 recycling and buying organic, I could not imagine what it would be like to live the change I want to see in the world. I held Building of the Future … 6 nebulous visions of communal living framed by consensus; Flag Mountain … 7 growing food, living off the grid and more closely with nature; and contributing to transformative education that brings people Our Beloved Dome … 8 into deeper connection with others, the world, and our higher Old Kitchen … 9 selves. Hardly did I think that these hazy hopes could be framed by a single place. Amazingly, the Lama Foundation does just this. ISC Rebirth … 9 Repeatedly this summer I heard stewards and retreatants express that their Thank You! … 10 consciousness was awakened and lives changed by being a part of Lama Foundation.

Knopf 1928] $12,500 Original tempura painting for the dust jacket of Carl Van Vechten’s novel Spider Boy. The image measuring 6½" x 7½", matted and framed to 17½" x 13". Unsigned (as is the finished dust jacket). Fine. A Hollywood star waves to the adoring multitudes as her entourage looks on, and a flash camera goes off in the left foreground. The painted lettering was changed to an entirely different font for the finished jacket, and the rest of the image shows minor variations, mostly in color. A very nearly final version, and the only existing painting of the jacket of which we are aware. An iconic and wonderfully evocative image of the Jazz Age. The satiric novel featured a mildly successful playwright, Ambrose Deacon, who is lured to Hollywood and is pressed into service as a screenwriter for an egotistical superstar. Ambrose has no clue about film but rapidly discovers that no one in Hollywood cares, as long as he lends his modest prestige to tinsel town’s pretensions.
