How To Keep Your Heart Open In Hell - Ram Dass
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มี.ค. 2022
- Ram Dass first went to India in 1967. He was still Dr. Richard Alpert, a prominent Harvard psychologist and psychedelic pioneer with Dr. Timothy Leary. He continued his psychedelic research until that fateful Eastern trip in 1967, when he traveled to India. In India, he met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, affectionately known as Maharajji, who gave Ram Dass his name, which means “servant of God.” Everything changed then - his intense dharmic life started, and he became a pivotal influence on a culture that has reverberated with the words “Be Here Now” ever since. Ram Dass’ spirit has been a guiding light for three generations, carrying along millions on the journey, helping to free them from their bonds as he works through his own.
Since 1968, Ram Dass has pursued a panoramic array of spiritual methods and practices from potent ancient wisdom traditions, including bhakti or devotional yoga focused on the Hindu deity Hanuman; Buddhist meditation in the Theravadin, Mahayana Tibetan, and Zen Buddhist schools, and Sufi and Jewish mystical studies. Perhaps most significantly, his practice of karma yoga or spiritual service has opened up millions of other souls to their deep, yet individuated spiritual practice and path. Ram Dass continues to uphold the boddhisatva ideal for others through his compassionate sharing of true knowledge and vision. His unique skill in getting people to cut through and feel divine love without dogma is still a positive influence on many people from all over the planet.

Something I never realized before now: it’s ok to be sad and happy at the same time in this world. I don’t have to constantly find reasons for things or fight with myself to be more optimistic. It’s a new definition of “allowing” that I never really took note of before. If that makes sense? Awesome speech, regardless.
@@Maudsunday amen asé and a me 🤍
Different sides of the same coin. Just like love and hate.
Yep,they're called feelings for a reason 👍
Just be. I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.
Same here because as you grow older, you will more and more experience the loss of loved family, friends, and pets. And if you don't acknowledge that this is the way life is, you will wallow in your sadness. So you might as well embrace it because it's not going to get any better. And your sadness will never go away and so it becomes part of your life as a bitter-sweet melancholy, and at the same time, that doesn't have to affect your happiness.
The way this entire message was translated into art...incredible
Yes, but the real beauty is when we translate that softness and implement it into our lives... here and now, directly, with gentleness...not just be moved from a talk, which is nice ut means nothing if we dont open up to ourselves in the most challenging of times :)
@@anthonybrown1417 Wow I actually really needed to hear that. Thank you
@@pearlskye my friend... this soft and gentle teaching is part of my buddhist practise under a monk called Bhante Vimalaramsi. I highly recomme3nd his loving kindness teaching and his tranquil wisdom meditation. It sounds like it could be right up your street. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, otherwise his teachings are all over youtube and he has many beginners instructions also :)
@@anthonybrown1417 thank you for sharing im watching their videos now
“Without suffering there would be no compassion” (A Walk To Remember) 😢
@@jeasebing5673 Gotta love that movie ❤️
Maybe only need compassion because there is suffering
It wouldn't be needed.
Makes no sense
"We're all just walking each other home." ~ Ram Dass ------ This video is life changing.

That last line is perfect!
I really need to remember this.
So true. Thank you for sharing this. Rob.

@@turbulencednb8246 its because at a soul level we recognise truth 💛🕉
To the *incredible person* that's seeing this, I wish you all the best in life❤ don't over blame yourself, accept things and go forward. Don't let others define what “success” is for you. Get up, learn the skills needed and get after it, all the keys to a happy life is in your hands. Keep pushing.
We having an abusive government sending billions to Nazis committing horrible war crimes. All the innocent deaths and suffering from all these corrupt wars being sponsored by an objectively corrupted media that brainwashed idiots won't stop watching. But hey,♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ hearts and shite. I'm utterly disgusted by this country and the majority of people in it who want to continue ignoring the harsh reality with their glazed over eyes and feel good apathy. I'm utterly revolted by the masses.
@@manwithaporpoiseYTsucksD that you feel how you do, is also part of the perfection.. (and also highly relatable btw, at an intellectual and emotional level) - only, what these guys are talking about is something that transcends even our judgements of this current situation.. we are so subjective and anthropocentric and yet we have the capacity to see that: our own inevitable subjectivity and also the notion of a more universal perspective.. once you don't merely conceive of this universal / non-dual perspective as an intellectual abstraction but actually experience it yourself, you will accept all of it as perfect, too - i struggle to reconcile this with my "natural" reaction to the evils in the world, every day.. the disgust you speak of (and immense grief) are hard not to feel.. but if you've ever had a transcendental experience you'll know that there is a greater perspective and understanding of all that is, not from our little human point of view... I wish for you to experience that absolute bliss, light and understanding and *absolute* love, someday.. i wish for all of us to experience it, in this life if possible, and to attain it as a permanent state ourselves, if that is possible.. there is also a lot of love in the world.. and you are also perfectly loved (you *are* perfect love).. whether you perceive it right now or not.. ❤️
Censorship I see. This must be Hell? 😁
@@anxiouscucumber9 Those are very nice and encouraging words!
In this thread two have been censored. When I post empirical evidence, beyond the nice words, I can expect to be csncelled, censored, put-down.
This is how you deal with those living in Hell: you keep showing them the evidence. The internet has brought out the human shadow; so shadow work is always at hand. 👀🐡⛵🌊🌊🌊
hey, how many times have you spammed this same exact comment. Maybe you're just a bot
I've learned so much from so many spiritual leaders but Ram Dass teaches me to be ok with my humanness. Thank you for such a beautiful video, the art is incredible!
I find it utterly astonishing and tremendously gorgeous how we all gather here from different places of the world and share this profound experience called life. In this moment, right now. Through this video.
We are seemingly different yet we all fundamentally have longing for the one thing that connects us all together - love. Through that we can see a glimpse of ourselves even in our worst enemies eyes. And there it lies; an everlasting truth. You know that behind those harsh words and actions hides part of the same love that you feel, part of the same love that you once thought you're missing and thus felt a deep longing for. Give that, be that. It's our essence.
We share minds. Your message sounded like my own voice. Thank you my brother.
I'm with you ❤
Where's the billions of seekers with missing pieces , aren't they looking to become whole I'm glad you're here 😊I keep learning more for the reassurance (no dark side) keep shining Peace
My 13 and a half year old dog passed away 3 days ago. He was my absolute best friend and we shared the strongest bond I've ever had with another living being. This video and so many other things surrounding his death could not be more divinely timed. Thank you
oh man i feel for you. I hope you find a way to heal your heart about it. if it helps some near death experiencers report that their pets are safe on the other side 🙂
Same. Worst day of my life. I know that feeling all too well. I’ve never cried or mourned harder in my life. Sorry for your loss. I’m sure he/she is looking over you now.
I watched this video less than 12 hours before my dearest cat suddenly died a couple of days back. Prior to that, I lost my eldest cat two months before.
I had a dream of a tsunami a week before my dear cat died and it was one of the most memorable dreams I've ever had because I felt genuine fear for my real life as I was experiencing that. I now consider it as a sign from God that I should have prepared my heart.
I went through that fresh, raw grief with these words in my heart. I can only trust the process and have faith in the Universe at this point.
Wow my star family… SAME! Put my beloved cat in the ground Saturday. Had more grief to express than I could make sense of… cumulative I believe it becomes… or at least opens the place where we can experience other losses that coke to bear witness and release more along with the current grief. The perfection of EVERY word, person, interaction, feeling, etc etc,.. is all perfect - and easier to notice during such intense moments of the alchemy of releasing our grief, courageously having all the feelings we can, so that we may release and let go, again… and again… until the final letting go … yes indeed… we are walking each other home. 🌟🙏🌟
Sending love your way. Sorry for your loss. Our 4 legged companions are such a blessing.
This video feels like it came at the exact right time. With everything going on in the world right now, I felt overwhelmed at all the suffering in the world, and also at the potential for more suffering in the future. Listening to the video allowed me to open my heart a little and to feel the humanity within each of us, within myself. To be able to appreciate the troubling emotions of the troubling times. See the suffering and inhumanity of the world fully and to let myself cry. To let myself see the beauty of the world, when I take a step outside and see the birds flying in the sky and the trees dancing in the wind. To look at all of life and be able to say how its all perfect. to see the pain and joy and still be able to say
and this too...
🤗
Bless you.
My mom past away last year, before she went into a coma, my dad and my syblings were standing around her bed and said to her we were with her and she was safe, she looked at us and smiled one last time. She went into a coma and passed away the morning after. It was so hard for a long time, now i see it was perfect, we were walking her home.
The right time for me too

"As long as you stay in the world of polarities; happy, sad, dark, light, positive, negative, good evil.. you cannot experience the richness of the moment, the richness of the moment is the one that lies just behind the two"
This made me cry. I needed this in so many ways. I will watch this again when I trip on a psychedelic. I want these words and these images imbedded in my soul. 🙏
We are in such dark times yet this year I have opened my heart and I am happier than I have ever been. Things are so bad I’m not afraid anymore. And stepping past those fears has allowed me to feel more love and experience more love from the world than I ever have. I try to look past the hatred and tyranny and see the beauty in this world and have hope. If more of us can do this I think we can be okay.
Word
Amen💙
I feel you so strongly on this. I’m sooo happy you’re able to step aside from fear, pain and hatred to follow positivity, joy and love. Thank you for being a beautiful soul. Lets keep looking to the goodness, because yes there truly is SOOOOO MUCH BEAUTY IN THIS WORLD!! We all hold it within our heart and souls. 🧡🦋
I also lost my fear and am happier then I have ever been, I take each day as it comes, because I can see the light
Beautiful 💚
After unfolding a layer of my spiritual awakening, I began viewing life in a similar way. This video solidified and put words to exactly what I'm feeling and thinking. The world really is a beautiful place. The polarities of good and bad become a dance of living and I'm full of joy to observe it all- love, pain, sadness, anger, attraction, peace... All of it. :)
You must also be an advanced old soul, Tiffany, like Ram Dass. You might appreciate this video of his Mayan birthday: th-cam.com/video/tbkZ3srvsMA/w-d-xo.html
Unfortunately, Ram was led by darkness and didn't realize it. He wanted to be of course light-filled, but some of the things he did show this. It's a dangerous world, our souls are at stake. Spiritual awakening is usually not what it appears. Only Jesus Christ can open our eyes through repentance and cleansing of sins. See, many things these days omit the reality of sin. The new age industry that Ram Dass was a part of is a deception of darkness to take many souls to hell. Seek the Lord Jesus Christ, He is the Alpha and Omega. I agree the world is a beautiful place, but it is also saturated with darkness and deception. It's not just polarity as is used in new age circles, there's a concerted effort to take souls to hell and most sadly go there. It's a real place in the afterlife and spirit world because most refuse the love, mercy, and forgiveness of God to follow their own flesh and the world.
Thank you so much for this. Being a late gen Z I've been struggling a lot because I've always been really sensitive to the world's suffering and it seems like everything is our responsibility now, how to fix it. It's overwhelming. I recently was thinking how I've been feeling like living in hell because I only see people partying nonstop around me and a lot of indifference and insensitivity towards the current crisis. But i know it's all perfect. I do. This has been a beautiful reminder and I was begging for it. Thank you
❤
Live in your surroundings, that's the only thing that truly matters to you as it's the only thing you control
We are all collectively responsible. You can't do it all yourself. We just have to keep trying, together.
Not when you blindly follow a religion like Christianity and Islam. You know "how to be" only when you detach yourself from these dogmas. It's a good start for you. Follow Dharma and set yourself free. Don't stop the self enquiry. Religion teaches not to think and not to self enquiry. Dharma teaches to enquire the self..
Being young is hard, much harder than being old. It all hurts so much. But it passes. And sometimes you miss the pain, when you get old, and feel that when you were younger you were a better person. But being young was hard, and you will deserve the rest when you do get to be old.
I wish you all the best
Deepest gratitude to After Skool and Ram Dass. This,more than any others,is the clip I watch and listen to over and over. I need to draw my mind back at least once a week,to do my best to grasp the ultimate essence of what we are. I'm 63. The lifetime of grief/love/awakening is threatening to overcome me,and the mission isn't complete yet.

I watched this video because I knew it would prevent me from being able to resist being overcome :) Sometimes I can't go there by myself, I have to wait for the flood.
I love what you are saying
There is no mission, my dear friend. Just... be. This is all there can ever be. This. And it is, indeed, perfect. And you will come to the realisation, that you, too, are indeed perfect. You just... are. You cannot be not perfect. You cannot be not eternal. And you cannot be not. Much love, from a fellow seeker and "struggeler". 😁

This is beyond gorgeous. Thank you!! It is hard finding the words that truly describe our love for all and how perfect everything is as it is, and you and Ram have done a stunning job of bringing those concepts to life. Amazing!
Thank you! I feel the same.

@@joleaneshmoleane8358 😂 well played. My bet the comment is from someone After Skool gave the privilege and honor of a sneak peek/preview.
@@dominikjakaj1999 I am a patreon supporter. I guess we get to see them early, I didn't realize as I just thought I was first lol. Though time travel is a much more exciting answer...
I have a cousin who lived in an Ashram for a decade. In that time, his Swami (as he found out later) slept with most of the women there, (including my cousin's wife) and got his ‘followers’ to do all manner of chores and duties for him constantly (for no pay), charged them a fee every month for the privilege of them staying at the Ashram, and all of that under the guise of them being tied to his enlightened word. Don’t follow the pied piper, people. The truth is your birthright, and it lives in your heart. For free. You only have to sit quietly and listen.
"all we can do is make one self a better person every day and hope that others do the same"Ram Dass
Many years ago I had the pleasure of sitting with Ram Das and a handful of others in a walnut grove in upper Ojai at the Happy Valley Foundation. It was like sitting with a friend who was sharing stories from a recent journey. One couldn't help but feel at ease, light reflecting light. Having sat with many different spiritual teachers over many years, I have to say, Ram Das was one of my favorite. There are mere academics and then there are the truly awakened and Ram Das was/is surely the latter.
Sobbing as I am watching this. My biggest struggle especially the last few years. I still don't know how to get to this place of finding compassion in those who hurt me so badly in my childhood. Those who cause so much suffering in this world. I need to watch this several times. The art is quite powerful. Thank you.
compassion for me comes in the knowledge that those who perpetuate suffering are too ignorant or traumatized to be aware of how horrible being cruel actually feels in the body. when i yell at a stranger on the street for pissing me off, it makes me feel gross inside with guilt so i apologize and use that discomfort to improve upon being present for the next time so i don't repeat that action .
we are socialized to be ruthless and competitive in this culture - the ones who cannot realize that this is wrong, or who delude themselves into not seeing it or justifying it - truly they are the ones to be pitied (from a safe distance if need be. we can offer others forgiveness while still keeping ourselves safe.)
@@samdafoe4817 Really appreciate your sharing that. Thank you.
i'm so glad if you found anything useful in there.
from what i've experienced being around abusive, sick sadistic people is that i would not want to experience what it would feel like to be one.
i'd rather spend my time trying to imagine being a wild horse galloping or a dog playing with a friend. 🙂@@BITEMYLEFTBOOB
Watch this over and over. Every week if you want. Another person I would recommend is Alan Watts. He was a theologian and a philosopher. He will help you. Listen every night before bed!
Maybe you need to work on compassion for yourself and how you suffered at their hands first, before you can begin to feel compassion for them.... And maybe don't beat yourself up for struggling with it. Maybe you need to go through the process of feeling how very wrong what they did to you was before you can move on from that... Wishing you lots of love and light 🙏☀️✨❤️
I’m so happy more and more of our collective are awakening to the reality that all is one, and that one is at its essence, love. We are love, we are light, and we are all one. We can make the choice to love each other and realize that separation, domination, greed, etc are not necessary. For when we serve other selves, we serve ourselves as well
My this is the most beautiful thing Ive ever heard/seen. The illustrations you add to these messages are so beautiful, a unique presentation, profound in so many ways. No words to describe how beautiful your content is.

Presence is the key to opening your heart. It is so easy to close yourself off, but when you stay and let go of your mind, you open the opportunity for you to transform the situation into a gift for your expansion.

Am born and raised this way ,, Lets boost these wise words up in everyone who is ready to exploe themself whitout a supervisor ,,(joking ) bravo love this artskool A must for creatifcurios minds . : )
bulll shit.
Thank you for this. I love this definition of compassion- of staying in your heart so you can help others, and instead of your mind asking Why?? Why is this happening? - Your mind knows that all is one and all is perfect - and so your mind stays silent - allowing you to give more presence to others, more of your heart to others. How beautiful
Yes you are right and it was really beautiful to watch. How are you doing. Hope you and staying safe out there?
But if all is perfect and suffering is a curriculum for the soul, then by helping are you not making it imperfect and taking some learning away?
I had a moment on my first mushroom trip where i was lying in bed and lost total connection to my physical body. I felt as i was just a dot of energy on my pillow such a crazy feeling and made me smile, really realized that we are really nothing but energy and had an overwhelming feeling from that trip onwards.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn’t take my life when i was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, I’m doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.

“I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.”
Aaw that resonantes so much with me. I've come to have that feeling of everyrhing being just perfect, I can see it and that awareness it's so freeing. There's so much calm pace, understanging and justice for everyrhing and everyone starting by ourselves.

Hello Miqa, you might also appreciate this video of Ram Dass' Mayan birthday: th-cam.com/video/tbkZ3srvsMA/w-d-xo.html
Thank you. I am going through a phase of suffering and it's really hard to be open to *what is..* God bless Ram Dass and everyone who puts the content together on this channel. I really liked that Ramana got brought up. He is my Master. He said to a devotee who was grieving a child who had just passed away and his devotee asked, What is God?: "What is, is God."
If you're going through a tough time right now, I pray that you gain the strength, courage, and wisdom to go through it and learn from it, grow from it. All my love, Naye.
I feel like I’m so far from being on the level required practice this. I can recognize the beauty and wisdom of it, but that’s as far as I can go. I hope to one day to be enlightened enough to really get here.
Perfection is duality and balance. There is no enlightenment without ignorance. There is no love without hate. We are given the freedom to experience duality. Without that there is no meaning.
This Ram Dass lecture addresses so many of the specific anxieties I have been struggling with recently, and the animation is some of the most gorgeous I have ever seen from After Skool. Many thanks!
This video came into my recommended the exact moment I needed it. Trying to prepare myself to go to work when I am being buried by my mental chaos … this helped. I feel somehow a little more connected. Thank you.

I sit here with tears in my eyes of both joy and pain. Mark, this is truly a masterwork. My heart pours out devotion to you in this moment and also grieves that Ram Dass never got to see this with his human eyes.
“And this too…” how easily he sums it up even in these three words. I’m astounded.
Surprised at how hard this one hit...very profound in an easy to understand type of way 🔥

Thank you so much for letting RD shine as bright as he ever has :).
I'm just in joyful tears over hearing this beautiful poetry about the spiritual being having a human experience. ☮️❤️🙏
This is just absolutely incredible. Seriously, the most amazing thing that I have seen in a long while. What a lovely contribution and clever way of utilizing your stunning artistic talent. ♾💎✨.
I am honored to have viewed.
The truth is more important than the facts. Is my $250K good enough to retire? I’m so exigent on productive information on how to possibly create wealth. What’s your say on this approach? I will appreciate any lnvestment ideas.
We all have different perspectives, how I see things might not be the way you see it. But my opinion would be, get yourself an aid (IA) because most successful people seek the knowledge and skills of professionals and claim to achieve their success without any help.
He is right, I'm working on my retirement as well. I engage in different kinds of investments (more of my capitals in crypto), through compound interest and leveraging and as well operating with a good professional, so far I've attained good ROI (amount is confidential)
As to get more details about my wealth manager; (Anna Kristine Services) easily do quick internet research where you can easily approach her from, do your research with her full names mentioned.
@@sarahfletcher01 Great! Got it. I appreciate
@Thomas Smith that's right, working with a professional is best compared to none. They have a wealth of information which helps a lot in creating wealth, I know Anna and I'm happy they mentioned her here.
Working with her made me understand the fact that you can't compare growing your investments yourself to that of an IA
Thank you for this. Ram Dass brings me so much peace and love when listening to his wisdom. So so grateful to have him available here for us to lean on 💗💖
This was such an absolutely breathtaking video that brought me to tears. Your art is absolutely beautiful and added a whole new dimension to this video. I’m so grateful for this, thank you
🩷🩷🩷 ram dass thank you for your legacy and beautiful knowledge and wisdom. May we embody and surpass your legacy to continue the infinite ascension of humanity and beyond
One of my all-time favorites from Ram Dass. Thank you for making this.
When I was very young I learned how many children died of starvation every day. I think I was maybe too young because that became my counter argument when anything bad happened in my life or to the people around me. It made the suffering closest to me seem so insignificant and petty. It got worse as I grew older and learned about so many other forms of suffering. I’m not sure I’ve ever truly grieved the loss of anything in my life; family, friends, opportunities, possessions, etc.
I want so badly to believe and live the message of this talk, to not constantly feel overwhelmingly broken for the world, to have enough space in my heart for myself and my family but I think it’s going to take some time. I’m still not sure this way of thinking isn’t just a coping mechanism. And then I think if it is, is that really so bad?
Think of it like this: there’s no other way things could have happened
Ramadan begins today...
This is beautiful ✨

@@carineiriarte6167 One of the most amazing discoveries in my life was when I found out that a person being tortured goes into a transcendent state beyond the realm of body and mind. We could say, I suppose, that this is just another "coping" mechanism to escape pain. However, the way it was described took the experiencer & me, as the listener, to a different level of consciousness altogether. In this consciousness is the awareness of the boundless love that surrounds us all, always.
I want to say, can’t you see that it’s all perfect? The way you feel even.
Perfect comment
I am in love, with the Universe 🥰 I am in awe of the beauty and complexity. I have been saying, for more than 20 years, The universe is perfect, in its apparent imperfection 😀
This video just had a profound effect on me. An overwhelming outburst of joy/love/sorrow all combined had me in floods of tears. It's all one.
my whole life perspective has been changed by this video, I can’t even begin to fathom what process the thoughts going through my head right now, but I I know, for one thing that I am just filled with immense, love and happiness. This video truly changed my life.
Aww, right on !
JUST INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL…you capture Ram Dass’ words perfectly
Thank you 🙏❤️✨
The richness of the moment is the one that lies just beyond the two...beyond the profound, brilliant....Ram Dass.
One of the most beautiful lectures from Richard. Thanks for uploading this After Skool.
"We're all just walking each other home."
That line really drives the message home after listening to this talk. Touched me deeply to understand what it actually means, because it's not (only) about keeping vigil with the dying. It is about what this Leela we call life is all about in any moment. We're the one undivided consciousness helping itself realize what it truly is - all of us, regardless of whether we're aware of it or not. It's incredibly beautiful. 💗

Beautiful, thank you for spreading Ram dass content to a wider audience than otherwise would be.
This was stunningly beautiful to watch.... thank you for all of your meticulous work and bringing such a beautiful message.
The majority of happy people are financially stable and grew up in happy stable home with 2 parents. So many people aren't growing up in a stable home and have very little support or stability. It's much easier to keep your heart open when you aren't living hand to mouth.
Master Acceptance = ISness 💜 its all Perfect 🎉 This Art is Stunning!
We're all just walking each other home. Beautiful
Gosh, this reminds me of a beautiful story!! I searched everywhere for this and I couldn't find it. If anyone can tell me where I heard it, I would be so grateful. So keep in mind, this is paraphrased and from memory... It's the story of a devotee who dies and begins thoroughly enjoying his afterlife, completely blissed out, taking in every sensation, enjoying it all. One of the overseers in the afterlife comes to him in a panic, "Sir, there has been a terrible mistake," he says. Puzzled, the devotee asks what has happened. "Sir, you were meant to go to heaven, but instead you were mistakenly sent here, to hell!" The devotee laughed and hugged the overseer then says, "What is the difference?"
Wooow! What a video! Thank you so much! Also to the countless beautiful comments! Feeling connected trough this…and the art! How beautiful is the art? Very inspirational! Much love💜
The artistry that goes into these drawings to accompany the richness of Ram Dass' words is perfection. Thank you! Excellently done!
Thank you!
Thank you for making such a digestible version of such an amazing talk.
The struggle to walk in the Balance of our Universe !! Thank You for your Artistic Poetry! Your words are inspiring ✨️!
Sometimes the pain of seeing the cruelty towards animals, children, of what has happened to you is unbearable, but only if we stand in a victim point of view. I'm feeling like that today but Ram Dass' words feel like a warm hug in a very cold night
Oh and thank you peace and blessing to you my brother.
the illustrations are so beautifully done, what a talented artist it add so much to the concept to these videos
Sooo wonder full!!! 🙏 thank you for adding such a beauty and clarity and color to These Words of Wisdom 🙏💗
A true 💎
Thank you Ram Dass and After Skool, much gratitude, for presenting these profound teachings on Allowing and Accepting the joy and pain we encounter, in small bites, opening up brief moments of clarity to refresh my memory through the day.
Thank you. For bringing these words to so many.
Your animations show a wondrous understanding of these truths, they are beautiful.
I have to watch this a couple of hundred of times,much Love thank you for your creativity.As an an visual artist you are very inspiring to me.Much respect.
Just shared this and another with my 20 year old! Thankyou for all you do🌎❤️✌🏼
Stepping out of your humanity and connecting with everything as an equal is absolutely life changing. Once you achieve this, you will never see or feel anything and everything the same as before. 💚🙏🏻💚
This was so incredibly beautiful and just the reminder I needed in this very moment, as it always is. Thank you and bless all ❤️
This is your best video ever. Hands down. I have chills.
You into nonduality already? If not, it will 'save' "your" life and liberate you from all human suffering, with some time :)
This is beautiful ✨

@@JonasAnandaKristiansson Yes sir, been living with these realizations since 2017. A massive shroom trip in the forest showed me power and magic of existence and how all is connected, and I’ve devoured philosophical content that could help me make sense of that ever since. It 100% saved my life.
