“Sruti Ram is a fearless adventurer—a believer in miracles, mysticism and magic. His wondrous life proves that for the sincere seeker, the one who cultivates the highest intention, all roads lead to God, eventually but inevitably.” —Sharon Gannon , co-founder of Jivamukti yoga and author of the bestselling Jivamukti Yoga: Practices for Liberating Body and Soul (foreword by Sting)
“Sruti Ram reveals the road less travelled and the life of commitment to the journey within. One feels the unfolding of life’s magic that arises not from mental planning rather trusting the heart to show the way of true happiness in life. I admire Sruti Ram’s devotion to follow a spiritual path as an authentic way of life in a society focused too much on material concerns.” — Stephan Rechtschaffen, MD , founder of Blue Spirit Costa Rica and the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY
For anyone drawn to spiritual love and devotion, and how to joyfully align one’s life to a soulful calling, All Roads Lead to Ram is a captivating and empowering true tale. Filled with Hindu deities, ancient temples, glittering festivals, and plenty of danger, it’s also entertaining and filled with humor and warmth. It’s part Indiana Jones adventure story and part spiritual memoir, with remarkable beating heart. Each chapter is a step in Sruti Ram’s profound and surprising personal journey. Chapters close with a sutra (lesson) by Sruti Ram himself—offering compassion and guidance founded in his own powerful teachings and the lessons of the ancient texts. The end of the book contains Sruti Ram’s teachings on the authentic Hindu texts and philosophy.
For the spiritual seeker, the avid reader, Hindu devotees or neophytes, yoga fans, for adventure-lovers and armchair travelers, for anyone interested in personal growth and mystical experience, All Roads Lead to Ram is bound to be a sure and rare delight.
Illustrated with rare and never before seen photos of Neem Karoli Baba, Ram Dass, Sruti Ram and many more.

Sruti Ram is a beloved figure in the mystical and yoga community, a name among names and a disciple of Neem Karoli Baba. During his 40-year close association with Baba Ram Dass, Sruti Ram traveled across the United States participating in meditation retreats that attracted thousands of participants. He is a renowned Formal Meditation Master who lectures on many subjects, including de-mystifying Hinduism, devotional love, meditation practices, the mysteries found in the Epic Ramayana Story, and how to live in the modern world under the influence of spiritual Love. He has appeared as a lecturer, chant leader or kirtan leader at the Omega Institute, Bhaktifest, the Mahakal Temple in India and other venues from Florida to New Mexico to India to California. His kirtans have drawn thousands. Sruti Ram’s life story is one of astonishing transformation. As a city boy with a hungry soul, he felt called by angels, yet kept his feet firmly on the sidewalks. Always drawn to a higher path, he forged a parallel career as a brilliant New York City fashion stylist on call to top designers. But he was endlessly called to a spiritual purpose—which took him, ultimately, to a secret temple sanctuary in India. There, he experienced a shattering, startling, and complete transformation. George Palmer, flashy New Yorker, became Sruti Ram, the Hindu Priest. Sruti Ram quickly ascended as a spiritual leader in New York City, with hundreds of eager devotees flocking to his light. Wrapped in the wisdom of his teachers and with a true scholar’s ability to channel ancient teachings for modern followers, he grew into a remarkable mystic and teacher. But at his peak, he was called once again to leave his fame behind for the quiet and peace of the Catskill Mountains. He became a driving force in Woodstock’s vibrant kirtan scene, known as the father of Woodstock kirtan. This joyful voice for his powerful, generous spirit has taken his music and his enlightening teachings all over the world. Whether as part of Sri Kirtan with Ishwari or performing on his own, his passionate, heart-opening performances are profound experiences for all attending. Sri Kirtan’s second CD, Live Your Love, reached #10 on the Billboard World Music Chart.
