Ram Dass first went to India in 1967. He was still Dr. Richard Alpert, a prominent Harvard psychologist and psychedelic pioneer with Dr. Timothy Leary. He continued his psychedelic research until that fateful Eastern trip in 1967, when he traveled to India. In India, he met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, affectionately known as Maharajji, who gave Ram Dass his name, which means “servant of God.” Everything changed then – his intense dharmic life started, and he became a pivotal influence on a culture that has reverberated with the words “Be Here Now” ever since. Ram Dass’ spirit has been a guiding light for three generations, carrying along millions on the journey, helping to free them from their bonds as he works through his own.

📜 About:
🎶🐉 The Music Medicine A living experience exploring, studying, and sharing diverse musical approaches and schools of thought/practice, blending tradition & modernity, spirit & reason, celebration & meditation.

Founded by ethnomusicology researcher, music therapist, musician, composer & DJ, Dimitri Dermentzioglou, The Music Medicine uses music as a tool to awaken creativity, potential, and connection, educate about music and its history, bring people and cultures together, and foster harmony & joy.

Rooted in indigenous and plant medicine rituals in Brazil, inspired by the symbol “YAO” 藥 (Medicine + Music in pre-Chinese language), and enriched through contact with Sufism and spiritual traditions around the world, the project is a living school of medicinal music, exploring its science, mysticism, and transformative power.

Through sound, music, dancing, chanting, ritual, and celebration, The Music Medicine facilitates safe spaces for expression, personal development, and collective well-being.

From The Music Medicine grew The Ministry of Music Medicine (MOMM), a temple of music, ritual & community.
