Summary

Ram Dass talks about disturbing emotions that may arise is potential wisdom the moment you relax into your natural mind. Look directly into it, don’t deliberately reject it, regard it as a fault, or indulge in it concretely or, regard it as a virtue. Ram Dass talks about experiencing his life as a dance of balance of cultivating the qualities of spaciousness, of equanimity, of peace, of happiness, we fear the passions of life because they take us away from that balance. We have to find a balance between intuitive heart and thinking mind. Because the tendency in the spiritual journey is to denigrate the thinking mind into it and we shouldn’t throw out the baby with the bathwater. In this talk, Ram Dass speaks on making human relationships our yoga. Let us help each other awaken. Ram Dass tells us an exquisite story about Ramana Maharashi that exemplifies the possibility Of a being who is not trapped, but are always living in that spacious awareness-- of compassion or emptiness. Miracles remind you that what you think is reality is not truth. That frees you to think about what is true reality. When you wonder how it is, you’re hooked.

Hello, hello everyone. This is Raghumarcus, and this is a new edition of Romdos here and now.

1:24.0

We've gone way back into the archives to find a wonderful piece of a talk that really goes over

1:36.6

a couple of different subjects in this talk, and it's from a series called Being Free Together, and we will put up

on the Be Here Now Network Romdos Podcast page just exactly where this particular excerpt is from.

But first, can I ask everyone, I want to do this really quickly and gently. I just want to ask everybody,

Somebody bought one of those home air conditioners that you can just put inside the room. You don't have to have it be placed in a window and framed out and all that stuff.

3:13.0

I hear all these things, and it's so easy to go in to Be Here Now Network, go to the homepage, you see the Amazon link, just grab that link, and put it into your bookmark.

3:26.0

Save the bookmarks, and it's always there. So whenever you want to buy anything from Amazon, you just hit that bookmark, Amazon, and it will directly give a little percentage of whatever it is you buy on Amazon to the Be Here Now Network,
