Ram Dass is a psychologist, academic, university teacher (United States).
Ram Dass (born Richard Alpert; April 6, 1931 – December 22, 2019), also known as Baba Ram Dass, was an American spiritual teacher, guru of modern yoga, psychologist, and writer. His best-selling 1971 book Be Here Now, which has been described by multiple reviewers as "seminal", helped popularize Eastern spirituality and yoga in the West. He authored or co-authored twelve more books on spirituality over the next four decades, including Grist for the Mill (1977), How Can I Help? (1985), and Polishing the Mirror (2013). Ram Dass was personally and professionally associated with Timothy Leary at Harvard University in the early 1960s. Then known as Richard Alpert, he conducted research with Leary on the therapeutic effects of psychedelic drugs.

Our library holds 314 writers and poets with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 26 of them (8%) have the Moon in Scorpio, like Ram Dass, and 10 (3%) share the Anuradha Nakshatra — the #17 most common Moon Nakshatra among writers and poets, where Shravana leads with 18 (6%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
