@imjustpassinthru thank you for your feedback.~

@progressiveGal73 ... I'm sorry, you're wrong in your perception of what he has said or is saying. It's one thing to talk about overcoming desire and another thing to fully understand what your desires are. People have desires they are not even aware of. And there is no way of "overcoming" those desires, as if it were a matter of effort. If you understand the specific desire I'm alluding to (and you don't) then you will acknowledge that enlightenment is a matter or realization, not effort.

@FidelCastro128 pretty far.

@imjustpassinthru he actually discusses this in his books and his speaking engagements. he stated that he has not overcome all of his desires. but that he has overcome judgment and merged into Divine Love. he states it is ALL clinging....

We are attached to our belief in reincarnation and a soul that goes on in a universe that we can control. Belief in Heaven, belief in Nirvana, belief in Moksha, belief that you only live once and never live again: it's all rooted in the same desire. Ram Dass apparently never overcame those desires.

thanks for this
the background fits very well, very hypnotic
Ram Dass coming through
as clear as it gets

Great stuff. Echoes God Speaks - Meher Baba. Ram Dass's heart space/being is so special. we connect.

Namaste. Thank You. Namaste.

So glad he is still teaching.

Some of both. We are attached to the known. This is why one of Krishnamurti's books is titled 'Freedom from the known'. The known is memory, It is past.
For the way out Mooji is a good reference but I also like listening to Ramdass.
