Hi everyone, welcome to Ramdas here and now at podcasts that's hosted by myself, Raghu Marcus and welcome back. In all of the many, many topics that we've had as part of our podcast going back, boy, it's a couple of years now.

And we have never represented one particular very important topic for Ramdas and what he's given and shared. And that's around service.

And although people know and he certainly refers to it in terms of the kind of work he did with Sava, Curing Blindness in the world, then he had a Hanuman Foundation. So he and many other organizations.

So he has talked a lot and referred a lot to service, that word service, right, which is pretty straightforward. This particular, then he did a series based around the idea that he was putting together a book and that book, how can I help?

And I guess these talks were part of developing the material for the book and just fleshing it out the way that he would go into stuff and then it would get fleshed out and transcribed and so on.

So this is about I love helping out no big thing service, you know, not any self consciousness helping out each of us has in us.

This is Ramdas. A psychic DNA memory of the quality of the satt yoga. This is through the Hindu system of ages. And this is the age of purity that he's referring to satt yoga where people generally and naturally help each other.

They just have a natural outflowing of the healthy of the healthy human heart. So this is what we're talking about getting that's what he's talking about and it's of I'm really David at silver and I've talked about this on mind rolling just how to deal with really being of help not the big get into service thing, which implies especially the way that we're talking about it.

We're talking about our culture and our culture, a lot of other stuff. So helping out, we are living in the Kali Yuga, not the satt yoga, where truth does not abound, but isolation, fear, separateness, paranoia is prevalent.

But still there are moments and times when there is a natural expression of helping each other. And of course we see this all the time in the most simple ways. So further on he talks about so this is establishing basically how do we get back to our basic human goodness kindness as his holiness of Dalai Lama would say.

And it is our natural birthright. It is in our DNA and relating this to the satt yoga, the age of purity, I think is really cute because I have no idea about any of the uges, but just the symbolism of this is fantastic. Let's see.

So again, many things here are developed relative to getting back to that complete and absolute natural outflowing of healthy human heart.

And one of these things is to go through and transform is this business around who is us and who is them.

And this goes on day to day. The easiest examples are politicians. We see, I mean, they are the easiest to react to when some one of them says, no, we don't want any government money going to food stamps.

We want that and so that ultimate who is us and who is them. The ultimate alien though and this this I enjoyed this more than anything in this whole lecture because I had never thought of this this way.

But here's the ultimate alienation.

Thinking about yourself all the time. So you become an object to yourself. You can't even help yourself.
