Thank you Jon for this healing album with all of my heart. I woud love to hear you being interviewed on Luke Storeys Podcast. I will suggest that he invites you to his podcast. Best, Steve
I’ve been doing psychedelic therapy for about 2 years now. I am so specific about the music and have curated many a playlist. I hope I can try yours as I am at my lowest point. Thank you
I meditate to this every night before bed. It is teaching me to love myself after many years of poor mental health. From now I choose love, not fear in making choices. Your music helps me heal my suffering and for that I will be forever grateful.
The last few weeks have been really hard for me too mentally. I've had pretty bad anxiety and ocd my whole life. But lately it's also been resulting in depression. I have been meditating and learning to let the obtrusive thoughts pass. Also working on my perception of God. Judging myself less and knowing that whatever happens we will be okay. Also this video brought me so much peace!!
@@MaxCady969 Don't forget that everyone is walking their own path, exclusively. It is unique to their experience. There are many ways to travel up the same mountain.
Jon… I wish you to know I recently played “Sit Around The Fire” with the graphic video projected on a huge panoramic screen at the funeral for my dearest friend who passed away from pancreatic cancer.. he was a musician of great talent…the screen was above his casket with surround speakers at each corner of the church…. Everyone, and I mean everyone was brought instantly to tears… when it was over all you could hear was weeping and sobbing… then applause and jubilation… it was BEAUTIFUL … thank you Jon, thank you! ❤
I was just thinking about asking for this at my own memorial, if there is one-and then I saw your comment. So powerful and affirming. Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry for your loss. ❤
The incest and the adultery is not allowed...but the war sey we just have no others way's to reproduce ourselves...such a lie,,traitors of ladies traitors of mothers,,the war itself puts us down in misery 2:59
For real. That right there resignates with me more than anything else from Ram Dass in this particular guided meditation he did. So simple, yet so meaningful, helpful and important.
My wife and I just got married this summer. We had a big psychedelic gathering of friends and family over the course of two days in the middle of nowhere. The theme we chose for our wedding as well as the quote that is engraved in our wedding rings became "quiet the mind, open the heart". It's been resonating with us ever since this album came out and it will stay with us forever. Thank you Jon Hopkins for this. For making this healing tool, for honoring Ram Dass, and for helping people understand the healing powers of psychedelics
This is absolutely beautiful and so inspiring to me. Congratulations on being so deeply present with each other and the loved ones in your life. What a beautiful gift to be here on the planet at such a time.
I listened to this track on the way to my ketamine infusion today and cried. Then I listened to it on repeat for the entire trip, and man, did it take me places. Every word, every piano chord, every second of this song is perfectly beautiful.
@@wallpaperkillabro ketamine infusions got me traveling. The song “Rivendell” in the lord of the rings sound track had me feeling like I was reviewing my life from the afterlife. I didn’t even realize I had it on repeat 😂
this meditation has brought me back .. grounded me with love and openness. Compassion and gratitude. I’m 35 weeks pregnant and i listen to this with my baby. Her middle name is Ember.

I heard this during a psilocybin Ceremony. I opened my eyes for the first time in over 3 hours after it ended to write the words AWE and GRATITUDE on a notepad. That piece of paper is now taped to my bathroom mirror. This video is magnificent but I’m so happy I heard it during the stillness of Ceremony. You nailed it Mary!
I love seeing my friends faces in front of me at a campfire, staring quietly at the fire, when you sudennly make eye contact with them and both know the feeling. Sitting around the fire with my loved ones will have a whole new meaning from now on.
When I was leaving the armed forces after serving 4 tours, two in war. I was a broken scared angry man. I would try and hide away. I had this scruffy old laptop and used it to stream RUclips. I found this mad scientist of sensational music and sound. I've lost myself in these wonderful symphonies of emotion and energy. They have helped me heal. Over the years I've enjoyed them so much. But this is by far the most beautiful peice of harmony I've ever heard ❤ thank you Jon Hopkins 😊
The part about the fire inside us being just ashes kills me every time... I hope I can make that little ember in my ashes become a flame once again. I wont give up.
You and me both my friend. Just got to the end of this album, again, And its the embers that kill me everytime. Im a bloody mess now. Will have to go to tge beach soon and recharge these grumpy old batteries 😢
It’s all coming together. Or rather, we’re all coming together. 😌 Perhaps it is true that we’re all just walking each other home. Going to the same place.
I’ve been showing mindfulness and meditation videos to my 5th Grade students after lunch for a few years now. This is by far their favorite one. The music and the visual art are stunning. However, it’s Ram Dass’ message of our soul, our true self, that really hits home to us. Even when you’re 10,11 years old. It’s a beautiful reminder of how to live ❤
I use the fire metaphor with patients in psychiatry who have lost all hope and are suicidal. Not everyone gets it, but sometimes it helps. And its a beautiful thing to see someone get up the next morning and find the courage to start looking for that ember again.
I'm in love with all the positive comments. Every time i stray from love, this brings me back to the path. It's taken 38 years to begin to understand who i am. Ram Das and Alan Watts have recently come into my life because of this meditation by Jon. I hope you all find your inner peace.
thank you jon hopkins, ram dass, east forest, thank you mushroom medicine, plant medicine, heart medicine!, thank you for this beauty which helps lighten back the ember ✨
Me too. It’s beautiful. As your soul is beautiful. Sometimes we just need a reminder that your soul, your essence, is of the purest love and goodness. Never give up on yourself. Keep seeing the light you bring to the world, even when your days feel dark. Be blessed.
The confusion is saying "I don't know" but the minute you are quiet you find out that in truth you do know. I love the animations and i love Ram Dass! Ram Ram! Blessings to you all!
I just had a K session at a clinic. They named a few tracks from their playlist including this. I couldn't believe beloved Ram Dass was in the background. It made the session even more powerful. I was smiling and weeping to his beautiful voice and words in my ear.💜
Back in 1976 I found the book Be Here Now, left by someone in a youth hostel in Scotland - by the lake Loch Ossian. Read it there and was deeply touched - and ever since that Ram Dass teachings has been a part of my life, together with various forms of traditional Buddhism. Used to order cassette tapes from Hanuman Foundation in CA... Thank you for this beautiful inspiring presentation 🙏❤️
In 1978 at age 13. I was handed a copy of Busy Making Progress by Progress. In Argyle St. Trongate in Glasgow. That led me to a greater understanding of all religions, and acceptance of all. 1 , 🌺🙏🏼✌🏻👌🏼🌺
I had just left my father who in reality we have had a rocky life relationship. He was very sick and even though we hadn’t talked in years I was compelled to go help him. We spent the day together laughing and actually had to take him to the hospital. He is fine and on the way home in the pouring rain this gem finds me! A voice whispered in my ear, let it go! Forgive him! Life is so much easier when you choose to surrender and accept that we are all doing the best we can! Love often, forgive often! ❤
i feel like every tensity in my body kinda just melted... cried a bit, because it felt so good to let go for 8 minutes. damn. Thank you, Jon. Pre-ordering, now.
Hi there random person, we may not know each other, but I wish you all the best in life. Whatever it is that you are trying to achieve in life, I hope you get it, I hope you become the best version of yourself and I hope you find happiness. Good luck fellow human being. 🙏❤️

This has been helping me so much, as a reminder that I'm human, as a reminder to look deeper within and always love. Always be present, through the bitter times, through the blissful times. There's always some sort of light, no matter how dark things appear to be. If we blow on that ember, we can always rise ❤ thank you Jon Hopkins, thank you Ram Dass ❤
This is reminding you that you are NOT a human. You’re so much more than that. You’re eternal consciousness having an incredibly brief human experience.
I can truly write that psychedelics and especially mushrooms changed a lot in me. It was like first step in huge transformation of myself. The beggining of the process to understand a lot of aspects connetced to "spiriuatlity". I believe that this album could be small step to help other people understand what psychodelics really are. Now due to their illegal status many thinks its like heroine or other hard drugs and its hard to accept... I hope that one day we will be able to use psychodelics legally and many people will benefits from using them. Can't wait for the album!
I'm afraid to hear things like that with psychedelics, after I had a bad trip with marijuana about death, I was afraid of not knowing how to distinguish between reality and spirituality when I'm not sober.
In seventh grade, I was chosen to be a part of a group of kids to take the SATs through Johns Hopkins University. I forget my score-- that's not the point. The point is that in less than nine minutes, I've learned more in listening to this masterpiece than I did in all the months of preparation I did those two decades ago. Thank you, Baba Ram Dass, Jon & eastforest. This is a salve on my soul.
This piece of art brings me to tears every time. It makes me realise that things are so simple. The only demons on this planet are in our hearts. We need to share pieces like this one and stop hate and violence around the world. Humanity is beautiful. Take care of yourselves everyone.
I wish I could hug Ram Dass and thank him in person. Jon too. You guys are part of the reason I'm still here. You helped me discover mindfulness again, and are helping me rediscover it again now. I have a long way to go, but I don't feel so lost anymore. Thank you, universe.
I would pay money for the uncompressed version of this video. There's a lot of lovely little intricacies in the animation. Kudos to Tom Readdy and Lucy Dawkins and anyone else on the team who animated this. Bravo!
ehm, I don't know if this comment is stating the obvious or not but this video is based on Be Here Now, the book by Ram Dass; every page is like this video :)
Recently had a horrendous stint in hospital, surrounded by mayhem, sleep deprived, considerably ill....and this had me accepting everything for what it was/is/will be. I'm a grown man who blubbered to himself for the first time in decades....the release was a gift. I don't expect Jon Hopkins to read or respond to messages on RUclips but want the world to know how grateful I am for his music, and guiding me through my own darkness. Be the fan to someone else's embers.
I’ve been through my good amount of break ups. The meaningful ones. The high school sweet heart. The college girlfriend. I’m going through one right now. I’m 34. With someone who opened my entire heart in such a way even after I promised myself I would only take care of me. Overnight, she was capable of bringing out that inner child in me. Someone I promised to protect from pain like I exposed them to with other lovers growing up. She was capable of bringing that kid out in me again. I was motivated and completely overwhelmed in the best way to provide for someone. In such a genuine way I’ve never felt before. Never wanted to before. Now, I’m stuck here trying to process why does the universe bring us people that are so perfect for us but at the wrong time. She had gone out of a relationship about a year ago, almost two but she never gave herself the time to be alone, to heal from it all, so she isn’t in a position to be able to be with someone mentally. All I can do is respect that from where I stand but it is so hard. I’m really trying but I don’t recollect ever feeling this type of pain.
You don't need need loneliness.. because you couldn't possibly be alone You don't need greed because you already have it all You don't need doubt because you already know
There isn't much you have to do in life, keep it simple. Trust that the things meant for you will find you. Know that you are NEVER alone its literally impossible. Follow the things that speak to you with open arms. Its your life, never let anyone influence what your soul was meant for. Love and give to others to heal yourself. And i love you ❤
One of the most beautiful piece of Art of the Heart that I EVER heard.. I cannot fathom how fucking gorgeous this is. This is what I live for. Beloved Baba Dass... You really had a Sufi Heart.. Tears from your words over and over again. May all Beings be free of suffering. Om
I randomly found this album today and put it on for a nap. When i woke up this song had just started, i just laid there listening to it. Its just so friggin beautiful and made so much sense in its simplistic magnitude.
I cry nearly every time I hear this. Ram Das’s voice ihits my heart and when those piano chords come In, if I’m not already bawling, those get me. It’s cathartic and true. Thank you guys for making this!
Thank you for this... This unlocked something deep within my spirit... Catharsis... Like tight binding being removed from around my whole chest and I can breathe differently...
So profound, the real work is our own inner connection. Leave the rest to themselves. In truth, they were never your responsibility in the first place. Love to your Spirit Baba. ❣️💜
This piece warm genius has saved my life since it came into my life a little over a year ago. I would not have made it out of the darkness without it. Thank you.
I just never can get enough of this this song means the world to me helps me make sense of the cauos in my life and helps put me on track thank you for posting this song and also i thank the authors
That was incredible. The music, meditation and, voice and animation all just blended into one moment of nowness. Totally chilled me out. Thank you Jon.
I love most Jon Hopkins music, in particular the last two albums so I approached this Song with some trepidation. I am blown away. It's stunning and more than music
Maharaji you are everywhere.Recently visted "kaichi Dham" in Uttarakhand.Inside the temple i was't able to control my tears.Maharaji not only inspired Indians but also a plenty of westerners.Ram Dass and Krishna dass is perfect example.
I will never be thankful enough for all that your art and your music has helped me Jon. This words mean a lot to me right now. I'm struggling with painful situation right now. But this bring me peace, let's me remember I'm here and now. And that I'm the only one who can decide I let more pain in or more love in my life. Thank you.
I tried to like it twice. I feel like this describes where I'm at in life. I'm sober from alcohol over one year and have been mediating. Finally working on my relationship with God thru Jesus Christ. First was a bit tough, I joined the church and at first had fear oh going to hell. But I follow less of the calvinistic views now. I've had so much peace the last few days now that I'm developing my concept of them and judging myself less. Feel like I'm finally waking up. This is what life's about.
Our facilitator played this during a ketamine assisted breathwork session and it hit me to the core. We are all just sitting around the fire for eternity.
I just listened to this on repeat during my 40 min. ketamine infusion today. The words perfectly described what I was seeing. I'm still a little teary-eyed.

Thank you, Baba Ram Dass, Jon & eastforest. This is a salve on my soul.
This made me crack up, thank you beautiful soul❤️
Taking a moment to appreciate the artistic visuals, the music and the sweet voice of Ram Das.
.. "we're all just walking each other home" ...

I’m obsessed with this - A real beaut
There are no words for this Beauty.
This is the Truth of the Heart, of Being
cant like this comment cause it will not be 69 anymore :P
This piece of art brings me to tears every time. It makes me realise that things are so simple. The only demons on this planet are in our hearts.
We need to share pieces like this one and stop hate and violence around the world.
Humanity is beautiful.
Take care of yourselves everyone.
Well, I'll never stop having this in my life.
I wish I could hug Ram Dass and thank him in person.
Jon too. You guys are part of the reason I'm still here. You helped me discover mindfulness again, and are helping me rediscover it again now. I have a long way to go, but I don't feel so lost anymore. Thank you, universe.
I would pay money for the uncompressed version of this video. There's a lot of lovely little intricacies in the animation. Kudos to Tom Readdy and Lucy Dawkins and anyone else on the team who animated this. Bravo!
ehm, I don't know if this comment is stating the obvious or not but this video is based on Be Here Now, the book by Ram Dass; every page is like this video :)
@@arik3974 arik, he's talking about the art of the animation
@@Dutchess0909 so am I ;)
@@arik3974 I meant how they put that art into motion. :)
Can’t thank Ram Dass enough for how he has changed my life, thank you Baba Ram Dass, Jai Gurudev, Ram Ram Ram 🙌🙏
That's a piece of ART.
Recently had a horrendous stint in hospital, surrounded by mayhem, sleep deprived, considerably ill....and this had me accepting everything for what it was/is/will be. I'm a grown man who blubbered to himself for the first time in decades....the release was a gift.
I don't expect Jon Hopkins to read or respond to messages on RUclips but want the world to know how grateful I am for his music, and guiding me through my own darkness.
Be the fan to someone else's embers.
Mm wow, touching comment, love it! You are Wonderful and Awesome. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you 💕
Be the fan of your own embers! ❤
Did anyone else start sobbing when the piano came in?
YES. At the gym too lol
Every time
This was beautiful it brought some emotions to the surface that needed to be there.
This art is absolutely beautiful.
I’ve been through my good amount of break ups. The meaningful ones. The high school sweet heart. The college girlfriend. I’m going through one right now. I’m 34. With someone who opened my entire heart in such a way even after I promised myself I would only take care of me. Overnight, she was capable of bringing out that inner child in me. Someone I promised to protect from pain like I exposed them to with other lovers growing up. She was capable of bringing that kid out in me again. I was motivated and completely overwhelmed in the best way to provide for someone. In such a genuine way I’ve never felt before. Never wanted to before. Now, I’m stuck here trying to process why does the universe bring us people that are so perfect for us but at the wrong time. She had gone out of a relationship about a year ago, almost two but she never gave herself the time to be alone, to heal from it all, so she isn’t in a position to be able to be with someone mentally. All I can do is respect that from where I stand but it is so hard. I’m really trying but I don’t recollect ever feeling this type of pain.
Wow, this felt like a big hug that I didn't know I needed
I wish lots of love to everyone who reads this ❤
You don't need need loneliness.. because you couldn't possibly be alone
You don't need greed because you already have it all
You don't need doubt because you already know
This is definitely on the playlist for my next trip.
Grazie mille grazie di cuore🌸🌸
There isn't much you have to do in life, keep it simple. Trust that the things meant for you will find you. Know that you are NEVER alone its literally impossible. Follow the things that speak to you with open arms. Its your life, never let anyone influence what your soul was meant for. Love and give to others to heal yourself. And i love you ❤
This is one of the most beautiful things i have seen in a whilee 😍
One of the most beautiful piece of Art of the Heart that I EVER heard.. I cannot fathom how fucking gorgeous this is.
This is what I live for. Beloved Baba Dass... You really had a Sufi Heart..
Tears from your words over and over again.
May all Beings be free of suffering.
Om
I randomly found this album today and put it on for a nap. When i woke up this song had just started, i just laid there listening to it. Its just so friggin beautiful and made so much sense in its simplistic magnitude.
I repeated it 5 times and still can't stop crying i feel him feel me feel him
I cry nearly every time I hear this. Ram Das’s voice ihits my heart and when those piano chords come In, if I’m not already bawling, those get me. It’s cathartic and true. Thank you guys for making this!
Thank you for this... This unlocked something deep within my spirit... Catharsis... Like tight binding being removed from around my whole chest and I can breathe differently...
It’s time to RISE from our ashes into FIRE 🔥 you got this , unique beautiful soul!
Bowing down to the beloved master@Ram Dass,and to great musicians@East Forest,John Hopkins
.

Lots of love from India 🇮🇳
Exquisite..and couldn't have reached me at a more poignant time in my life.The Time is Now
All we're going to do for eternity is sit around the fire 🙏🏻 Thank you forever for this music, visuals, words
So profound, the real work is our own inner connection. Leave the rest to themselves. In truth, they were never your responsibility in the first place. Love to your Spirit Baba. ❣️💜
Love Ram Dass book called "Be here now" this music sounds like a Jon Brion score I love it peace thanks for sharing.
This is perfection. On every dimension, artistic, musical, spiritual. I've a feeling I will be coming back a lot. Can't wait for the album.
8 mins and 24 seconds later, I feel like a graduated from Jon Hopkins University.
It’s interesting how this university also specialized on psychedelic therapy research
Congrats
@@arameu5038 Jesus, was but a lamb

Whoa. Perfect union. Thanks Jon. The world needs this desperately
Thank you💖 We're all worthy, Life is precious.
Peace and love are within. Thank you for this reminder.
beautiful original masterpiece, it will live for ever in our minds
This piece warm genius has saved my life since it came into my life a little over a year ago. I would not have made it out of the darkness without it. Thank you.
I just never can get enough of this this song means the world to me helps me make sense of the cauos in my life and helps put me on track thank you for posting this song and also i thank the authors
I cry every time I listen to this. Love this so much.
I really enjoyed the conceptualization of sitting around the fire of our universe. It makes me smile!
That was incredible. The music, meditation and, voice and animation all just blended into one moment of nowness. Totally chilled me out. Thank you Jon.
I love most Jon Hopkins music, in particular the last two albums so I approached this Song with some trepidation. I am blown away. It's stunning and more than music
You are a genius Jon Hopkins. Thank you for a life changing trip and experience I will never ever forget
Maharaji you are everywhere.Recently visted "kaichi Dham" in Uttarakhand.Inside the temple i was't able to control my tears.Maharaji not only inspired Indians but also a plenty of westerners.Ram Dass and Krishna dass is perfect example.
My yoga teacher played this during Yin practice. It brings joy and tears and all sorts of emotions to my heart whenever I listen..thank you
Simply beautiful, Deeply healing and calming
I will never be thankful enough for all that your art and your music has helped me Jon. This words mean a lot to me right now. I'm struggling with painful situation right now. But this bring me peace, let's me remember I'm here and now. And that I'm the only one who can decide I let more pain in or more love in my life. Thank you.
💕🌠
I tried to like it twice. I feel like this describes where I'm at in life. I'm sober from alcohol over one year and have been mediating. Finally working on my relationship with God thru Jesus Christ. First was a bit tough, I joined the church and at first had fear oh going to hell. But I follow less of the calvinistic views now. I've had so much peace the last few days now that I'm developing my concept of them and judging myself less. Feel like I'm finally waking up. This is what life's about.
Our facilitator played this during a ketamine assisted breathwork session and it hit me to the core. We are all just sitting around the fire for eternity.
I just listened to this on repeat during my 40 min. ketamine infusion today. The words perfectly described what I was seeing.
I'm still a little teary-eyed.
This is the most amazing thing I have ever heard
I wish this was longer, at least 30 mins. So beautiful to meditate to 💛
