I first heard this when I was 18 years old, in a small town in California. I am now in my 50s and I have heard this presentation many many times. It is like an old dear friend to me. I'm so thankful that is finally on UA-cam in its entirety. I absolutely cherish Ram Dass and this was my introduction to him all those years ago years ago, remember to be here now.
We at the channel appreciate your sharing - very beautiful!
I am 23. I had never searched for Ram Dass ever in my life, but suddenly he was there, like very instantly and indescribably there, and he guided me to his audio files on UA-cam. He had answered all the questions I had growing up but I didn't have the communication skills to express as a kid. In my hardest moments, I take a moment of silence, and call out "Ram Dass?" And he reminds me that I am only calling out to myself. Ram Dass lives, he watches the "here and now" with our eyes, our bodies, our souls, our consciousness, our "I am". There is only One Entity in this Universe, and it's "I am" We've been doing this for all eternity. We are Eternity. It's only ever been just here and now.
I can't even explain how he entered my life. One day, for some indescribable reason, I just decided to open youtube, type in "Ram Dass" and click on his face, and bam. I saw my life flash before my eyes. I even remembered things from before. Far before? Really strange, queer memories of stuff I genuinely honestly don't remember this body or form ever personally experiencing, but they became remembered memories nonetheless. I've only ever been just right here, haven't I? Since forever.
Timothy Leary showed me the door to eternity in Chicago in 1991. I was 23 years old. I am thrilled that Ram Dass has shown you the door to eternity.
I wish you well as you grapple with eternity
I am 50 and he did it to me too
I love you ❤ 🎉 ❤🎉
Yes yes yes. I know we are one but I hope we cross paths in this plane someday. I resonate with this in a big way.
I first heard this in 1969 and it changed my life path completely. I’ve heard it so many times since then but it’s always like the first time. So grateful, thank you! ❤
How beautiful to hear this Beth
I heard for the first time and it's amazing
That's so cool! Did you see Ram Dass in person?
that's pretty groovy~
I wish I first heard this in 1969! But I had to wait to be born first in 1985. Then I had to wait 35 whole more years. And then I heard it. ❤️
In high school in Oakland I was in an alternative program in 10th grade.(1973)
We met in the teachers lounge to meet with Ram Dass. We sat with eyes closed waiting for him.
Then suddenly, there was that voice!
What a blessing at 16!
Thank you Baba 🕉
How beautiful
Wow! What a great teacher
What!! That’s so awesome ❤❤
Be Yourself no one else can be you. Thank you Ram Dass you are so right on. I am so happy you brought me through this pandemic free of charge on you tube. Blessed be us all now in love, consciousness and peace
This talk, which I first heard on LPs in the mid 1970s, subtly and consistently changed my understanding of my life. In the years since then, whenever I felt lost, I found myself returning to it again and again, and to his other talks which he always so generously shared... It got to the point where just hearing his voice could calm my fears. I knew it was his combinations of psychology and spirituality (head and heart) that I could relate to. That seems to have been part of his great gift. It was only in 2019 that I met Ram Dass in person when I attended his last Retreat. I consider it one of the greatest blessings of my life that I got to touch his feet and thank him. Ram Dass didn't have to be "anybody special" to be a great Soul. Following his example has become my Sadhana. Deep thanks to all of you who keep his message circulating. Namaste 🙏💖
Yes that was exactly what happened to me as well! It felt like opening a gate into my heart. That's so amazing that you were able to meet him!! ❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience. You were surely blessed to have met Ram Dass before he had left his body. A blessing indeed. Namaste 🙏
Thank you baba for continuing to remain with us after dropping your body ❤
I read Be Here Now in the 70's, one of the books starting the spiritual journey. Then I hung out with him a few wonderful times.
I never heard this talk, with him narrating his story which he wrote about in the book.
Really great, hanging out with Ram Dass again, and all of us. 🕉 and the wisdom of India. gratitude 🙏

Heard this 100 times, new every time cause I hear it from another place
This is the best superhero origin story there is, honestly. ❤❤❤
This is definitely one of my favorite lectures of his, and probably the first I heard too, many years ago. This is always the one i first show to people when introducing them to Ram Dass. Thanks for the re-upload of this one, in this format.
Ive been trying to find this lecture for about a decade! i used to listen to on repeat. I cant believe my fortune today. Thank you and thank you Ram Dass
Love Ram's wisdom in sharing. His profound influence is the nature of our work.
Reading 'Be Here Now' in 1973 changed my life. Fifty years of meditation later, I still adore listening to this great soul.
This exact lecture changed my life in 2020! I love relistening to it. Ty Ram Dass!
Extraordinary!!!!!!
So many gems !✨✨✨✨

I’ll never forget the feeling “my” body and mind felt after listening to this podcast. Mind blowing.
This would have to be one of the best talks I’ve ever heard. I will return to this whenever I have the opportunity ❤
sometimes my mind starts wandering off while listening to him, and then out of nowhere we meet in the middle, like he answers what I’m feeling. Conversation grander than words
If a pick pocketer meets a saint, he will only see their pockets
Being is to die by loving
I completely understand Ram I’ve been chasing that high for 6 years I know that I don’t know I need to be here now!
Purely Beautiful ❤
Namaste 🙏
AND then there is, "Let us reason together as one man reasoneth with another."
Be Here Now 🕉
The still center of the eternally moving wheel of existence.
Consciousness is eternally Here Now.
Blessings.

For years I’ve wanted to travel to Tibet and to the mountains to study with yogis and monks.
I pray this journey is blessed upon me. I would love to walk the journey similar to my friend Ram Dass ❤
I’m so glad I found you.
You were introduced to me years ago but it wasn’t until now I gave a listen. I don’t regret it for a second I love you so much Ram❤
Ram ram 🙏🌹🌹🙏🌹🙏
So grateful for an official upload of this particular talk, thank you.
THE GOAT
Great talk 🥰
I truly wish I could speak in front of a living crowd like this.. web-based life has it’s pluses but the non-togetherness of people who are looking for answers and others who provide them is missing in the modern era because people rarely gather in person for spiritual reasons.. at least I can’t find any.
Bless Ram Dass for doing his part while he was in the flesh.. I’m trying to do the same with what I have experienced but the internet is actually a hindrance to modern truth being spoken. I openly offer deep profound truths to anyone reading. God’s blessing from the “me” I to the “you” I.
What wisdom do you have to offer
Got some stuff figured out huh? Feel you should be providing 'deep profound truths' to people, spiritual seekers etc?
....thank you for telling us this. 🙏🏻
@@divinewind7405 yes I absolutely do. It’s my responsibility to share it no matter who “makes fun” of it.
@@danalexander186 you responded to my comment but have ignored @bryce8793 whom asked you something that you indicated you'd give 'deep profound truths' to...they ask 'what wisdom do you have to offer?'
Please enlighten us 🙏🏻
Desire is a trap
Desirelessness is liberation
Desire is the creator
Desire is the destroyer
Desire is the universe

Thanks for showing up in my feed. Helping me understand some things that another has been doing and explaining... Maybe I am too much of a realist and suspicious...The unbelieever!!! If my 5 can't sense it.
I just knew I should stay more and now you know as well, now isnt that a trip?
❤️ love maharaj ji🤘

This comment is to peacefully protest the gatekeeping of RD’s lectures. Common complaints as elucidated from 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 haven’t heard this talk before of Ram Dass’, and it is so very pertinent for me now. Thank you for sharing it🙏🏽💜🙏🏽🥰💗
Surrender the guy who knows
You give up the experiencer of to be it
You can only surrender when there is no surrender
It’s about healing

BUDDIST PATH
1: all life is suffering
Birth, death, sickness, getting, not getting, etc.
2: the cause of suffering is craving or desire
3: give up craving you end suffering
4: 8 fold path of ending suffering
Extricating oneself of desire
Renunciation of attachment
Dropping out internally
The external trip is just show
The internal is where it is
Self inquiry
Say who am i?
I i i i i i i i until you got i in the middle of your head
I am not this body
I am not my 5 organs of motion
Arms as objects
Toungue
Legs
Arms anal sphincter
Note it all
I am not my 5 senses
Noting all the senses
I am not all internal organs
I am not this thought of i
The thought even goes
Until ------
Behind senses
Behind thinking mind
Into another state of consciousness
Very good but very good at talking about himself still unknowingly seeking adoration while holding audience . I did this a long time ago without that education .
Stop identifying stop the tripping on your own self
Now I’m better understanding Yogi yoga teacher’s meditations! RIP brilliant no limits for spiritual connections for all humanity! His humour & candidness is sweet… the witness helps but cravings possess when I don’t tell my mind what’s my perceptional core but also need energy raised & embraced daily 2x at least. ❤❤❤
