  • I love you Ram Dass!

  • He had a stroke...blood clot in the brain. Lack of oxygen killed off a fair number of blood cells. As a result, it takes more effort for him to talk and convey ideas...

    Pretty sure hes not pretending and pretty sure he does "Know" what he's talking about/around.

  • he better should stop talking. It sounds so painful.

  • @deathshore I think it's just a witty variation of the old fairy tale of the princess kissing the frog which later turns into a handsome prince. Only in Ram Dass' version, the gender roles are reversed and there is a mock twist ending. Hope this helps!

  • Notice how his face brightens before saying, Death. He knows he will die, he has accepted this. He is only still here to teach us, and thank you so much to the great Spirit for allowing this to happen.

    When Ram Dass leaves his body, it shall be a great change in my life, and i accept this change, all of it, the emotions it will create in me, the sense of loss, and the lessons taught.

    Om Hreem Namah Shiva

    Eihwaz!

    :lugh:

  • Love you, Baba. By writing Be Here Now you let me know i wasn't crazy as a kid for seeing the world differently than the status quo. Blessings, Dear One. Blessings on your path.

  • Thank you, Baba Ram Dass

  • What a beautiful soul! He has taught me so much! And pointed out so much I needed to be at piece with.

  • @mrkurt13 his teachings are like a joke as he says, if you get it you laugh truly if it has to be explained to you then you don`t laugh as much ;-)))

  • His affliction only draws my attention.

  • Where is the story of the frog from? Can someone send me a personal message. I was intrigued by the story.
