As Krishna Das points out in his introduction to The Near and the Dear, "When you read these stories about Maharaj-ji and his devotees you step into a place and a time that is outside the boundaries of your own memories. You meet people whose lives were forever changed by a word or a look from the great Indian saint Neem Karoli Baba."

In The Near and The Dear, Dada Mukerjee tells his own story of time spent with Maharaj-ji, and relates stories about other sadhus and devotees who came to be with Neem Karoli Baba. For a little while you spend time in another culture unlike the United States but not unfamiliar, because to be on a spiritual path is a journey of opening the heart wherever you live. Mukerjee helps you discover commonalities with others despite cultural differences. Along with the stories of devotees who came to see Maharaj-ji, you read about how Maharaj-ji gave to each what he needed for his own spiritual journey. Mukerjee shows you the endlessly adaptable Guru working with his followers, not through coercion, intimidation, or fear, but with overwhelming compassion, understanding, and acceptance. You'll find yourself marveling at what you can accomplish when you follow your heart.

The book also contains rare photos of Neem Karoli Baba and his devotees.

Wonderful Reading

April 18, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Wonderful book, the 2nd book about Baba by Dada Mukerjee. How ironic that Dada, who was not a yogi or a sadhu, and who started out life with no interest in such things ended up being the main explainer of the enigmatic and mysterious saint; the famed Miracle Baba Neem Karoli Maharaj (Narayan Sharma, died Sept 11 1973), whose activities even 41 years later still pretty much defy explanation. Dada is down to earth and very humble. I feel that his books are essential for understanding the great North Indian saint. No one knew him better than Dada. I have as much love, devotion and admiration for Dada as I do for Baba Neem Karoli. Great read, very deep and moving. You will not be disappointed by this book!

This is an interesting follow-up to, "By His Grace" ...

This is an interesting follow-up to, "By His Grace" by Dada, Maharaji's personal attendant. What a treasure that the writer was able to compile personal stories gleaned from devotees from many walks of life and from the early days of this saint.

If you are interested in Neem Karoli Baba, GET THIS BOOK!

Neem Karoli Baba is the Bomb. So to speak. LOL! And, the Dada Mukerjee books are the best about him. Not a big fan of Baba Ram Dass, or Krishna Dass. The newest book on Neem Karoli Baba is disappointing. But, I have bought this item several times over the years. If you are interested in Neem Karoli Baba... GET THIS BOOK!
