Here's the 3rd one i created for TRANSITIONS; a workshop on living and dying, which i gave to the members and friends of a network of cancer support groups, with the help of friends. This one's from Graceful Passages, music by Gary Malkin, words by Ram Dass. Contemplating life after death provides a peaceful attitude for living each day.
One man's guided tour of the Great Mystery present the listener with an opportunity to relax into a wondrous possibility. This is for people, including those in bereavement, who would be comforted by a firm conviction in the continuity of Spirit.
A spiritual teacher, author and humanitarian, Ram Dass suffered a stroke in recent years. This recording as the first audio made during his recovery. His message comes to us from a depth of authenticity, giving us a glimpse into what we may behold upon our own transition. His assertion that "dying is the most important moment" is a reminder for paying attention to the spiritual significance of this event, and to prepare by practicing awareness throughout our life, summed up in the words he made famous,'Be Here Now'. Please take note that the "blank, black, empty" portions are made by purpose coz i wanted the workshop attendees to use their imagination on these parts, the words serving as guided imagery. I felt the words are too powerful to be represented by visuals. these were actually quite powerful during the worskhop being flashed in a big screen, in a dark room. Hope you'll appreciate it as well. Thank YOU.

Searched under the name you said of the artist, and i found a track called Be Here Now - but it's not this track! Are you sure this is the artist - and is Be Here Now the name of the actual track??? Would love any help in finding it. Thanks so much for posting :) beautiful, amazing, Ram Dass was key to opening me to my path - love to him and to you all! Shanti Scott
