❤
Been enjoying this precious man since early 90s I was about 16 im 49 now ..tracing bak to his beginnings. His story is great, as is his gift to teach and share..
Much love from Texas u all xoxo
18 and 3 months 🎉
24
I was 18 and an inner voice lead me to your book: be here now. It saved my life.
Now I'm 61. ....
Big hug to you in heaven
This is amazing! May the Lord be with you always. Hare Krishna! ❤️🙏🏼
He believes in reincarnation not heaven. ❤️
@@NoName-ix3tp He also believes that after learning all the karmic lessons ect. For many many lifetime's there's a different journey to be had than the human one.
i have an almost identical story, and i had the good luck to tell Ram Dass exactly your message and he burst into tears...
@@josephuia Hi Joseph, so you where lucky to meet him.
I just came back from an incredible Dr. Joe Dispenza advanced workshop in London. The journey goes on. ...
Greetings from Freiburg in Germany
Anna
I'm here, now. Just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge all who are listening. I'm honored to be taking this form at the same short period as all you wonderful beings and to be coming to awareness in this lifetime.
(In the two months I've posted this it's aroused the attention of 430 beautiful souls, expressing positivity and love. You may doubt still but I have seen too much love to be a non-believer.. this isn't meshugana stuff.)
Thank you
Namaste Jesse I felt this too💓
Peace + Love. =)
♥️♥️♥️

I think I’m having conversations with Ram Dass through his lectures and through spiritual contact. I’ll have a problem or issue going on and then I’ll pick a “random” lecture of his and hear something that is a direct response relating to what’s going on with me. I’ll also have conversations with him in my head. I’m not sure if those are real but they help either way
Misinterpretation of social engineering happening behind the scene
All is One. There is zero separation whether "in form" or out of it. What you're experiencing is completely normal and to be expected. Namaste.
either you're crazy or its quantum waves, or its both. but if it helps. does it matter?
Goodness, what some chose to respond to you!
Your heart is wise, and it's guiding you. There's nothing to be suspicious about in any Ram Dass lectures because he is beautifully honest about his perfect imperfection. Just remember that he walked his path, and you must find yours. You're already doing that. There's nothing else you can do.
That's fantastic! Sounds very helpful. I have a similar thing happen with Eckhart Tolle and Abraham Hicks videos, and occasionally Ram Dass.
I'm glad it's happening for you 😊💖✨
28 years ago I was lost in drug addiction.. I was digging through an old box of books in an abandoned garage and I came across Emmanuel's book.. on the inside front cover somebody had wrote
" Dearest David
I hope this book helps you on your New journey
Love Lyndsey "
I have no idea who you are,Lyndsey but it did help me in a big way on my new journey. I've been clean and sober ever since.
Today I am happy joyous and free!
Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️!
Love this story! Congrats and thank you for sharing! ❤
What book is that ? Emanuel , as in, ram's spirit friend?
🙏🙏🙏
“You’re no longer one thought away from where the action is; you are the breath, you’re not somebody breathing.” Thank you, Ram Dass.
Loved this precious man since the early 90s..i was 16ish im 49 now. Bless u all..what a fascinating time to be alive
Much love from Texas xo
We at the channel send love to texas!

I hope many young twenties are finding Ram Das too. He changed my life at 21 at the Arlington Street Church.
Ram said something profound to me that I try to remember in the beginning stages of anger. I usually remember it at the end, after I’ve fought to ‘prove my point’. When my body is aching and I feel sick with the unreasonableness of people. To be seen as righteous in my anger by the one or thing it’s directed at.. that’s what I want more than anything. But in that moment at the end when the battle is over I realize I have gained nothing, because your not arguing with someone that can listen or reason, remember.
He said, “i would rather be free than right.”
My interpretation: in life you will be beset on all sides , especially on social media, by people who don’t want to ‘reason’ or can’t. You will have great battles with lovers, family, and You will have valid reasons to be angry. Your anger WILL be righteous and ‘worthy’ of vengeance. BUT. The lesson is, would you rather be righteous about your indignation? Or would you rather be free? So try to give up anger as much as you can and keep working on it. And keep listening to Ram lectures everyday.
‘Give up anger and I’ll help you.’
‘You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”
Samurai Maxim that you would enjoy: "The angry man will defeat himself in battle, as in life."
that’s one his most important and poignant quotes for me, i think about it all the time :)
Once you awaken, you will innerstand everything. You need to forgive and let go. ALL GOD'S CHILDREN HAVE A LIFE REVIEW WITHOUT KARMA OR JUDGEMENT. SOME HAVE TO TRY AGAIN 😍💕 WE ARE SO POWERFUL. I AM MELODY OF LOVE AND LIGHT 💙💕❤️🙏
"I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name is grief." C.S. Lewis
And I sat with that grief long enough to discover that I wasn't bereft of anything, for I have lost nothing. I was not sad that I'd been hurt; I was sad for a being haven forgotten who they are, for only that false self could persuade them to act as they do.
And I sat with that sadness and discovered that it is another face of love. I saw that each time I agreed to let a false self commit an unloving act, I enabled it to get stronger, further entrapping the beloved.
So, with the deepest of love in my heart, I can now detach from anyone committed to perpetuating their illusions and delusions.
For some the lesson is to learn how to stay. For others, it's to learn how to go.
You’re only getting angry @ yourself... 😉 just a reminder 😘
Still so relevant and inspiring and funny ....Today in 2022 when it was recorded in 1990 ....Namaste 🙏❤️
Had a great laugh when he started talking about donald trump lmao
1990 was yesterday to me. 😉 Feels like life is the same now as then except the same people as then have amped up since 2001. That was right after 1990. Maybe that’s why it all feels the same to me. Oh, the Soviet collapse was also happening around 1990. That marked a total global al shift toward democracy and modernism at the time. That’s what the same people are fighting against now. So funny in a strange way. There was the 1990s Putin now the 2024 Putin. There was the 1990s Trump. Now, we have the 2024 Trump. Same suspects in different times that they built.
I love you Ram Dass - thank you for guiding us home...this is an excellent lecture. Great to hang out with you!
So thankful to have found my way home ❤️😇🖐🏠⭐ 55 GOD WINS 🙌
💯⚡️🌹
Thank u Ram love very good
Best yet
This is funny, I went to the store and I left my phone in my room turned off. I come back and I hear that my phone is on and a video is playing and it's this video that was playing. Thank you, Ram Dass. Much love!
You feel a pain and dis-ease, you go to a therapist and the therapist helps you rearrange the furniture in the cell. - Baba Ram Dass
Yes Mr baba..
Who is so-called mr baba? Such nonsense titles.
That's why i don't go to such an interior decorator. It's worthless amd only wastes resources.
No problem. His regular name was Richard Alpert.
This quote is harmful like any discrimination. If we are all the same and we are all love and we all have healing ability, then what would prevent a therapist from having the same wisdom and love as Ram Dass himself? If someone feels pain and disease and needs to be heard in a way that family and friends often struggle with, it would be reckless to discourage that.
God, how I love this man!!!
Me to cant really put into words...love i suppose
ram ram ram. his voice reminds me and puts me at ease
yes - whaT comes thru his voice iS pure ❤
I've just found this.
Profoundly timeless, yet applicable to 2022.
Awesome.
yes
it will, at least in this dimension, continue forever for us appearing as timeless teaching. in this dimension, we are in a cosmic wheel of karma which is not being able to diminish. lets pray we will wake up, at least the ones who woke up to realize in what madness we live in
Isn't it amazing..
@@sallyduros I'm old enough to want to transition. Departing from this mortal coil would be a blessing.
@@peteywheatstraws4909 Namaste
Wow 20+ years ago Ram Dass said, Donald Trump....somebodys gotta be him. Haha. Prophetic. Always a great listen. Truth is etetnal.
😉😄😄👌
We are all him. Particularly everyone who wonders on conciousness. You listening to him is your dharma. You become free in a karmic sense when you devote yourself to the listening heart. This is the earth curriculum. After this class there's more on 😅 conciousness. OR FREE to roam the cosmos physically.
I wonder if he would be in favor of the war efforts in Ukraine if he were alive today 🤔🤡
@@Gawillamon funny how you call it “the war effort”. The war… Was an outright act of aggression by a maniac formally of the KGB. We are defending freedom in Ukraine. It doesn’t get any more basic than that.
@@houdinididiit All BS and lies. War is unnecessary and simply a means of profit, control and division. It is not as simple as you put it, this conflict goes back decades and there's a lot more to it than you know. Besides from the perspective of Oneness killing another is unnecessary.
I just found this for the first time. Deeply profound and timeless wisdom. Listening to this with my heart open in 2023. Thank you for your service on Earth 🌏 , Ram Dass. ❤💖🤍🤍💖❤️
I just discovered Ram Dass 2 weeks ago and I feel such a profound kinship to him and his message. Namaste my friend. I wish I could have met you on this physical plane.
i love this. you are on one hell of a journey. always remember to come back when you need. you will never hear the same thing twice. even if the same words are being spoken. keep seeking. there is no they. you are the one.
Physical plane mental plane what's the difference :)
these lectures got me through the darkest times of my life. now i just listen to his voice and it brings me so much relief. wishing you all love and happiness 💗💐
May all beings everywhere be happy, may all beings everywhere be peaceful, may all beings everywhere be free.
May all beings everywhere awaken to the light of their inherent divinity, consciousness, oness, truth.
Listing to him after 26 years, still feels I am at his lecture. Feel blessed same as the audience in that day in 1996 🙏🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much
In the '90's he came to lecture in Phila. Pa. He hugged me. He hugged a lot of people. I loved his lecture and never forgot. Im 65 but everything hes said and written are of great value whether then or now. I miss him but cherish his words. Be Here Now was ground breaking.
I'm grateful for youtube, despite its problems. Beautiful videos like this heal.
I find it so interesting how he explains addiction in such simple terms and with such compassion. It's astounding because he spends 3 minutes explaining something that is the topic of several 2 hour documentaries. We need his perspective now more than ever in 2023. It's an honor to be here now with all of you beautiful nobodies ❤ 😊
Yay. Ram Dass saves me from myself every time :-)
You gotta give it all up to have it all….and that one too…and that one too…the paradox is just so beautiful. What a dance. Ram Ram
Truly beautiful but it's hard 😢
Ram dass came to me in meditation, I had a conversation with him . It was absolutely the most beautiful amazing experience…. My journey will never be the same ! It feels so good .
Man, I'm going to try now. I don't think he reincarnated...it sort of came to me last night now I see this.
Light, life, and love to everyone seeing this. 👏🏽
If anybody ever doubted that Ram Dass was a powerful spiritual being… just remember during this talk, there was an infant who understood him,& that baby sorrowfully cried when he mentioned the death of a Child.
In this lecture?
@@liarose111 yes.
We all have the same power.
The power is sensitivity, attentiveness.
It's all working out through lawful nature. To make such a phenomena out to be magical, otherworldly, unique, seems to be a distancing from understanding.
How did you know?
EVERYONE will eventually become a true spiritual Seeker. Pain will eventually catch everyone's attention. That's just how Life here is set up...Ram Das humor is always far out unmasking the lies we tell ourselves every day anew....Until we can't believe even ourselves anymore.
That was really beautiful and timeless. It's so funny to hear a talk from the 90s and have it resonate so deeply with me in 2022 :)
The path of the heart and the face of chaos are two very fantastic talks as well, They're all so good along with the with his sense of humor. If chocolate and peanutbutter were a person, it would be Ram Dass ☺️
True wisdom is timeless and universal
Your compassion for the suffering of others helps my brokenness to see how others like my husband felt and how helpless we were to help each other. Now 37 years later I have compassion for everyone and am grateful for the experience of how deeply we must go to find we are all one in suffering. I love you Ram Dass. Listen to me I will never forsake you I will always remember yo
You. Thank you namaste
Best times of my Life were hanging out with Ram Dass in New Mexico for 2 - 10 day retreats in the mid/ late 80's. Mind blowing times! Grateful beyond words!
Maharaji felt so close to my heart also while reading Miracle Of Love . Ahhhhh.
Now- Grateful for these u tube talks!! ❤️
If your listening or have listened , your on the path , the journey is real 🏁🏁🏁
2:39:22 The Baby begins crying when he mentioned the man who lost his son... Coincidence?
Never coincidence. Grief is a hard one. Father and Son has its pull as much as the push. Maybe it was a physical way for this man to learn how to let go of the character.
Respect love and gratitude. You are unlimited
Ram Das, wish I could have met you so many times over during the years we both walked the Earth. Even so, you are here now. Thank you for the honor of your guidance for those of us counter cultural types. As a powerful guide, help us surrender to freedom. You were not just positive. Help us with wisdom over zeal and liberation over oppression. Let us wade through the lakes of oppression as they were filled with calm and gentle waters. Let us all rise above the current and float above to safety.
What I love about his teachings is that he uses humor. It makes the process of enlightenment feel like it isn’t such a serious business or a structural thing. Even that in itself can be a trap.
Man, I'm glad i clicked on this lecture. I had heard of Ram Dass, but never listened to any of his talks. He was a really cool guy. I can see why he was a grief counselor (or something like that).
Struggling right now. Thank you
It’s okay. You got this
Truly Sublime
Thank You Beloved Baba Ram Dass❤
Ah Sa Hum
Namaste 🙏 ❤
We at the channel appreciate you!
Thank You Muchly ❤
My Isness Truly Appreciates
All that the Channel does
I Am a daily listener
Thoroughly Joyfull❤🙏🌷
I’m about 23 minutes in and there’s so much goodness already jam packed in here. Love his examples of time relationships and how the possibility of reincarnation seems to “grow on you.” 😂 Always love you RD and thankful for this community 🤍🙏🏼

What experience and what an amazing journey. It may feel like we are loosing our minds but as I notice, that might be entirely the point. Love and blessing to you all and thank you Ram Dass. There are no words for what is, just a feeling of infinite thanks...and love. This may be one of the same as well.
Love him. So soothing. Bless you Baba Ram Dass 🙏🏽
We at the channel regard him as a balm for the soul!
It’s the end of the world and I feel fine. ☮️❤️🙏

@ Jonah Chiarle its a song
As we know it.
Be here now( the book version) also came to me whilst cleaning a basement,! Much love to us all!
Ram Dass had such a way with words and to me that’s what made these lectures so wonderful to listen to!
He's a storyteller.
@@gunjaneighteen m me mmmkkyvk mom m
Yes he took it all with a grain of salt and humour, perfect!
Baba Raam Daas Is my new guru. I found this year in the start of 2022. I understood my connection to Hanuman ji and Baba Raam Daas. His lectures started popping up in my TH-cam randomly just exactly when I need. I love Baba Raam Daas from my heart and soul. His every word is blessing to me! Jay Hanuman! Be here now ✨
Thanks for showing us where we can hang out with each other Ram Dass. Here we are
May God bless Ram Dass forever and ever 💞
We at the channel thank you for this and feel the same 1000%
💓LOVE YOU ALL💞
i never heard this chant but i feel like ive heard the melody before in the same way he was doing it in major, i was listening to this at work and when listened to the chant the 2nd-5th time i was crying idk why even now listening to it it getting me teary eyed, It's peaceful, happy and sad at the same time with some nostalgia, then you hear others join in and i feel everyone doing it
Absofrigginlutely…🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼
😄that part was really funny👌🤣
i’m 20 and i bought be here now about 2 years ago. ever since then ram dass has changed my life. i love all of everyone who sees this, and i am blessing all who is like minded, in love, and eternity❤️
Hey Lionel, 🙏🙏🙏
Laughing, crying and Gaining knowledge
❤⭐️
We at the channel love to hear it!
Like mind and heart and want to grow with integrity-yes.
Every time I see Ram Dass smiling it creates a very warm, hopeful and light feeling in me. His infinite compassion blows me away every time. Have a good journey wherever you are now, my man!
You're not alone. The best man ever. May God bless him forever
Thank you for reminding me, once again, to keep compassion coming.
Holy ( “ just holy”). ❤
“You can say no”, but don’t close down when doing it.
“You don’t have to close your heart to tie your camel.”
Beyond brilliant. Beyond beautiful. LOVE
Thanks!
Ram Dass is great! Breath of Ram 🙏🏼 🕉️ such a healing voice, pure medicine genuinely beautiful
I cannot put into words how much these teachings have helped me. I am forever grateful and hope to share these lessons with other people in my daily life too!
I used to have this lecture on cassette . It was given to me years ago . Might still be in a Be Here Later box.
Excellent sound quality. I woke up to this video, he was talking in my dreams. Excellent voice too.
Thank you for your message. It is a message of many to my spirits awakening. In 2022 you’re message is more prophetic and needed than ever. You would be laughing your ass off at the irony of your comments on Mr. Trump. Someone has to take the journey. I am thankful mine is more in line with yours and so many others who are called to bring light and abundance to the spirits on this journey. Til we meet again dear friend much love and peace.
God bless u your family for generations 🙏🙏💓
When I listened to this lecture for the first time, there was something about the chanting ( @1:36:19 ) that really struck me with a powerful feeling. Just feeling. Just the feeling of being human. Now it is a normal part of my meditative routine.
Hovering over the video and seeing that this part is the "most replayed", I'm guessing I'm not the only person who feels this way..
Be Here Now ... I had that book... super trippy stuff!!!
I loved it!!!
I thought it was just me who was tripping and I've been sober for the first time in years and wanting to go back to basics and get out of society ♡ thankyou
His voice , laugh and message is like a clear soothing flow of river .
I have heard of Baba Ram Dass from several people throughout my life, mostly after his death, but this collection is the 1st I have been able to experience him. Amazing how we are drawn to certain things in this world, thank you for providing this opportunity to hear his loving comforting & inspirational words. Now I feel like telling others about Baba Ram Dass!
Love that you looked in the eyes of Trunpa. He was my first teacher. I was so into him and wanted to meet him but was told he died years ago but yet his teachings reached me. Years later you are now my teacher Ram Dass thank you. No more games. The truth sure takes time. Love you thank you
Ram Dass" laughter is so good at ears.. just like kids laughter
My heart expands and melts as I listen to Ram Dass sing at time stamp1:36. Ram Dass, thank you for sharing your love.
Glad I got over his comment about the child abuse club so that I could listen to the rest because I think this is one of his best talks. And as it turns out, he just shows in the beginning what he is speaking about later. We know that the dualism is in us and yet we don’t buy into dark bad light good unless that’s how they’re being manifested in behavior.
I just wish I would’ve been there to ask him What to do when now is fucked because it’s really hard to be here now when it hurts so much that it feels like you’re standing in flame and you can’t get out. I’m so tired of pain and I got to meet him when I was really young and I didn’t have these questions… he just said the funny thing is is that you’ll go where you think you’re gonna go when you die. That’s exactly what my daughter told me when she was a little girl when I asked her what she thought happens when we die. Bless her she’s not a little girl anymore and I hope she finds her way back to me💔🙏🏽❤️
I had the same experience. I don’t believe I think of myself as needing a club or validation for the violence I endured growing up - if anything it gave me a spiritual path - but his snide remark over a spanking was beneath him.
I hope you are finding peace
“If you doubt yourself. You exist in doubt...”
Truly Beautiful
Thank you ❤ 🙏🌻
Namaste
Amazing how relevant this is 30 years later... Wow 💜🙏
Timeless
thank you so much my heart goes out to all fellow souls without exception
Yt algorithm figured out i like to listen to this lecture during the AMs and its always on the top of my home page, there’s nothing else id rather fall asleep to
I needed this s bad! Thank u
He is so funny and so calming!
"If any of us are homeless then we are all homeless."
You just can't tell because we ignore it.
@1:29:45 So true. 3-5 years from 1990, life completely changed for everyone.
Add 5 years to that, the year 2000...
And again a few more times and here we are... 2022. Internet went from being created and spread across dial up internet to... what it is now. Changes all of our lives constantly. We don't even realize it, we're so used to the change.
Ram Dass always keeps my heart simultaneously breaking and bursting with joy, and that dwelling in my heart is always the solace in wisdom and authenticity that my mind requires.❤
Luke 17:21
"21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you."
Matthew 6:33
"But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you."
Unfortunately, almost all of us do it the other way around. Going through avoidable sufferings and then seek the treasure within that has been obscured by external destructions.
Thanks to Jesus and teachings like Ram Dass for enabling us to discover our true Self❤❤❤
Love you forever, Ram Dass! Thank YOU!💙❤️♥️🙏🙏🙏
Omggg “the therapist helps you rearrange the furniture in the cell.”
Actually, the therapist helped me get out of the cell. Emotional healing is a spiritual process. Alchemy.
I love to love this feeling...This journey is now 💞 Happy journey everyone
happy journey to you as well!! 😊
❤ AGREED 💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯❤❤
This one is REALLY MAGICAL... the cop car as he finishes his speel on drugs! (And we have to choose wisely...so, whats the cop car in synch? I feel it was a sign of the real trouble itself...not cops themselves...but Fear. Authority. Locks and keys...LITERALLY! HAHAHA) yup. A real good talk
If nobody told you they love you today, I Love You 🌷📿🙏♥️
Everything I thought I was is coming to an end. I have those sudden urges to end all kinds of things (like therapy, becoming a coach, self help group,.) that made me believe I was less of, was sick or somehow defective.
I see, I am whole. I have always been and I get to be just that - a breathing entity.
When the baby came through at 239:53 I lost it. What a beautiful sign!
Brilliant ! ❤
Rearrange the furniture in the cell...love it😂😅😅
U da man rass. Rest easy ur work lives on.
“The art is to neither have hope or to be hopeless. Just be quiet, listen, and respond.”
~Ram Dass
Such a beautiful soul.
Ram ram 🙏🌹🙏🌹🙏🌹🙏🌹
He is talking about things that are happening now
Ram Dass was commendably dedicated to being sincere and being present.
Namaste 🙏 to everyone who is listening to this wonderful speech by Sri Ram das
Does this thing ever end.
Baba Ram Dass: IT NEVER BEGAN
I am tearing
