Sita Lozoff is interviewed by Sitaram Dass for a discussion around her work in prisons, the path of service, her lifelong friendship with Ram Dass, and keeping the heart open in the midst of hell.

Sita and Bo Lozoff started the Prison-Ashram Project with Ram Dass in 1973, which has grown into the largest interfaith prison ministry in the world. She is currently HKF’s Spiritual Director and has been cited for numerous humanitarian awards, including the prestigious Temple Award  for Creative Altruism from the Institute for Noetic Sciences. Her  sincerity and commitment have earned the respect of hundreds of  thousands of people in prisons and others around the world who feel inspired to follow a similar path of living simply and joyfully caring about others.
