In this powerful talk from 1992, Ram Dass explores:
- Working with death and dying as a spiritual practice, and how it helps keep him at his own leading edge of consciousness
- How the process of learning to live simultaneously on more than one plane of consciousness is the path to dealing with death, dying, and suffering in a more spacious manner
- How two levels of love - conscious love and relational love - come into play when dealing with death, and why compassion is truly the sword of discrimination
- How we can honor diversity by sharing our pain together and grieving our way into unity
“It’s taken me a long time to learn the way in which compassion is not fuzzy-wuzzy stuff, compassion is the sword of discrimination.” - Ram Dass

    🙏❤️🕊 Being with people facing death one embraces love. I have been with many different people that I did not know with different religionous beliefs, or none, spiritual consciousness, family or freinds What I have experienced is each is unique. 🙏❤️🕊 A beauty of the unknown.

    This comment is to peacefully protest the gatekeeping of RD’s lectures. Common complaints as elucidated by the community on the Ram Dass subreddit are as follows. Removal of content, privatizing/licensing out content, copyright striking others who post content without replacing what was removed or providing another means to access the content. Restriction of what is released, cutting and editing pieces of full lectures and not releasing the full lectures themselves. Putting a paywall in place that provides access to still limited content. Access to content is overall severely limited compared to just a year or two ago.

    I think it’s a natural reaction as a human brain with survival instincts, an ego with survival instincts and as RD said , societal concepts that are f’d up. I hope it helps you as much as it helps me to tell you my beloved child went to heaven in 2022 and I definitely have had very clear and evidential communication with him ( as have thousands of parents in my life after life group for parents ) we drop these bodies & continue our lives. Ram Dass’ you tubes on reincarnation and life after death have given me so much comfort. “ it’s like taking off an old shoe “ ❤️

    Whom of LSR do I tell if I'm being visited by Ram Dass??????? I feel close to maharaji through the stories but as I started to honor my guru, he is now here. I don't just mean my imaginary playmate playmate, (though it's a very sweet part of it) I mean that Dick Alpert is an astral being who comes in tej and intense love, but stayed in my mind and is telling me the answers before the question, also giving me the questions. I have devoted my life in my dharma, and I have become like Hanuman. Ram ram ram all day and night long. Idk who tim is but he keeps telling me to tell you, have Tim call his brother, (important apparently that you know it's not Timothy, Leary I assume.) 😂 This could be my heart flipping out my mind, but my guru, through his guru say from all 3 levels of dualism, be not attached to the fruit of the action of even this message or how exciting it is to be getting these strange electrical mystical sensations and beautiful visions, just to expand my emptiness and tell tim I say hi to his brother more😂 it's probably easier not to contend with my predicament, and I have no attachment to a reaction anyway. ❤ Thank you for bringing me closer to my guru on this plain. He is a gateless gate, in Buddhist terms, and his guru was a gate, so on. He's bringing me closer to the beloved and wants me as a karma yogi. Who I thought I was protested. Now even he is on board with all this "proof" 😅 phew... Tldr❤
