2.0 out of 5 stars OM MY GOD!, July 31, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Evolution of a Yogi (Home Use) (Amazon Instant Video)
I sincerely believe Ram Dass himself probably doesn't want you to watch this film. Shot in the very early days of his return from India, the film captures Dass apparently trying to turn a group of Caucasian drop-outs into Hindus For A Day. Dass' primary message is that Raja Yoga can give you an LSD-high without the expense and illegality. The film makers try to back that claim with low-tech attempts at psychedelic visuals that merely wind up looking ludicrous. Hippies doing shoulder stands appear no more mystical when projected upside down.

Evolution of a Yogi would be good for a laugh if it wasn't for the $2.99 rental price, which is exorbitant for a 28 minute short.
