What I like about Ram Dasa

In this compilation of some of Ram Dass’ speaking events he goes over how he came to his path and what he does to stay on it. I love that he speaks his truth to the best of his ability, that he reveals his fallibility with humor, and that he shows his willingness to pick himself up and keep going as best as he can. He physically died nearly a year ago, but his voice feels very alive and pertinent in these talks. Balancing insightful thoughts, levity of personal suffering, and compassion for all isn’t easy, but he shows you it is something that can be worked toward.

Moving and Insightful

I loved this and have listened to it a couple times now- each time gleaning new insights. Ram Dass is funny and lighthearted and stays true to his message over the years these recordings represent. This collection is accessible, profound and contains life altering material useful for those in the process of waking up.

Enriching yet light hearted

Thank you Ram Dass. You made me laugh :). You shown me that spiritual teaching doesn't have to be overly serious.

Far out!!!

Ram Dass is far out. If your ready for it, this work connects the dots of a lot of genres. Buddhism, LSD, Harvard, India, gurus, suffering, poverty, and a pointing toward what it all means.

This was my first listening to Ram Dass (formerly Richard Alpert), and I loved hearing him across the decades all in one program.

These talks were very rich, and my mind and heart are blown open.

We ARE

Compassion.
Love.
Understanding.

We ARE it all. I've listened to this more than a dozen times and I always seem to find new little treasures with every listen.

I AM.

Namaste.

Journey of self laughter

Ram Das has a great way of showing his humanity and the struggles that each of us encounter in this collection of talks. A journey of enlightenment and the struggle to maintain a positive look on life and not feed into the anger.
