I am the director of the Sacred Community Project, and I offer lectures, kirtans , workshops, and retreats on Bhakti, interspirituality, meditation, psychological and spiritual healing, and the intersection between spirituality and social action. I am also available for one-on-one spiritual support.
I draw my inspiration from my beloved teacher Ram Dass, the great Indian Saint Neem Karoli Baba, Hanuman, and the Divine Mother. I also find inspiration in all of the world’s great wisdom and mystic traditions and have received great benefit, insight, and grace from Sufism, Buddhism, Hermeticism, Christianity, as well as the many forms of modern psychotherapy. You can learn more about my interspiritual stance here.
In the Ramayana, one of the great spiritual epics of India, Ram (God) says to Hanuman, “Who are you?” Hanuman replies, “When I think I am my body, I serve you. When I identify with my soul, I am a part of you. When I awaken to my True Nature, you and I are one.” This captures the essence of what the Sacred can awaken in us: a life-long calling to be in service and devotion to Love. It is through this service and through this devotion that we begin to realize we are not separate. Love is the very nature of our Being. It is who we are.

From and for God is an intimate and contemplative collection of writings on the spiritual path. Jack Kornfield writes, “There is sweet wisdom here and deep devotion, and Ram Dass’s love perfume that infuses Sitaram’s words and heart, offered here to you.”
Exploring the Hanuman Chalisa was recorded from over nine different lvestreams throughout 2020. In these lectures, Sitaram Dass explores each line of the Hanuman Chalisa, using sacred scripture, humor, modern psychology, and stories from his time serving his beloved teacher, Ram Dass.
