    I've been on a spiritual path for a few years but heard Ram Dass only recently. I feel a stronger awakening now. His lectures just broke me open ❤

      Discovering Ram Dass did the same thing for my spiritual path. I listen to him every night now. I just find so much comfort in what he says ☺️

      I have a RUclips playlist on my channel (the holy trinity) which is full of discourse by Alan Watts, Ram Dass and Terence McKenna. Great if you’re new to this sort of thing.

      Yes, I imagine he can see us, wherever he is in space and time, and be happy that his legacy lives on in us, his words just as wonderful and relevant as they ever were. It’s truly beautiful that we’re all getting comfort and guidance from the same person. Peace to you my friend ☮️ ❤

      RD would object to this deification. I would suggest that whilst it’s great to listen to the experience and wisdom of others, it is very damaging to create a hierarchy and put a particular person at the top of it. RD was no greater or lesser a person than any of us.
      This is not meant as judgemental though it is a judgement, just sharing my experience and wisdom(I hope!)❤️

    • @dnbjedi

      Yes but the truth remains that without meeting Ram we would be much more confused and unfulfilled.
      I think the ego game is okay as long as you are aware of the consequences.
      There is value in holding a gem up for all to see

    • @dnbjedi
      @dnbjedi 21 день назад

      Ram is “the” western guru. This cannot be disputed. I don’t think he’s being deified he’s just being sanctified.

    • @dnbjedi
      @dnbjedi 21 день назад

      This is the same problem christianity had- they thought that they should make him the bosses son but all that did was make his example almost impossible to follow, or heretical. To say you are like Jesus is seen as blasphemous. When it is obvious that he wanted us to follow his example completely.
      They deified Jesus and he became some kind of freakish do gooder that wants everyone “to be happy and kind”.
      Yes there is a danger of this and you remind us of that.

    Staying sane, grounded & focused on being a light in the world at this point in history is what is important. There's a fictional movie set in WWII France called "All the light we cannot see" that I feel personifies those like Shindler, the underground railroad in France that helped Jewish children escape, the Jews like Anne Frank that were hidden by good people & other such stories that will be playing out in our nation in the future under Christo-fascism & accelerating climate change. I have to constantly remind myself that I chose to live during this era & for a reason. To be a light in the darkness & a light worker being the change I want to see in the world. May we all be blessed to be the light in the darkness. Aho!

    We are a tiny ember of advanced consciousness that the universe can give rise to. We are the gems of reality that gleam in the walls of the deepest caves. We are lost below the surface, but timeless, and unchanging. We gaze at the wondrous luminosity of awareness.
    The jewels of Indra’s net.
    I like to imagine a civilization of people like this. That can see suffering as a science to awaken the mind. Maybe someday in this infinity there will come a people that hold awareness as sacred over everything else. A marriage of nomadic tribalism with advanced scientific inquiry and technology.
    We are before our time, and we are of time itself. We realize that temporality is only temporary.
