Ram Dass answers questions from an audience surrounding attachment, addiction and relationships.

Ram Dass on Attachment & Addiction

- How do we move beyond our desire to perpetuate experiences into a place where we can be free to enjoy the present moment?
​- How do we recognize moments of awakening and move into a place of identifying with the soul?
- How do we learn to embrace simplicity and spaciousness and move into harmony in a way that benefits those around us?
How do we learn to honor our incarnations while remaining free of attachment?

From tragedy to elation, moments of awakening come in many forms. When we recognize that we were born in order to work through attachments in ourselves that keep us bonded to our separateness, the meaning our of lives change. We see the potential for our souls to awaken to their true nature. From then on, everything in our life becomes a vehicle for awakening and we are free to open ourselves to all forms of the universe...

Finding Purpose Through Service

Ram Dass leads a guided meditation centered on noticing what you are directly experiencing in the moment, and simply letting it all just be as it is.

Just Be – Meditation

Ram Dass leads a guided meditation straight to the center, where you can rest in the quietness of your heart. When you look at the universe from that center point, you can begin to see the true nature of existence.

The Center – Meditation

Ram Dass guides you to a place of pure light in the middle of your chest and reminds you that you are this light – your body is just the container. But it is not enough to just see our own light, we need to see that everyone has this light within.

The Light – Meditation

Ram Dass leads a meditation experience called visualization, where you imagine the guru that is within expands in size until you are beyond space, time, and thought. Experience the truth that this being is your true self.

Beyond Space And Time – Meditation

Ram Dass leads a meditation using the Heart of Aditya (the sun god) mantra: Aditya Hridayam Punyam Sarva Shatru Vinashanam.

Aditya Hridayam – Meditation

Ram Dass gave the following lecture on July 21st, 1993 in Rhinebeck, New York. We chose to share these teachings because although they were given almost thirty years ago, they are still extraordinarily timely in today's social climate. In the following blog and accompanying audio clip, Ram Dass shares advice surrounding the themes of inequality, social action, fear, and change...

Ram Dass on Transforming Fear and Denial Through Social Action

3. Dealing With Anger

This meditation is drawn from Theravada (Southern Buddhism) called "Anapana" - just bringing you to right here, and it's done through the breath. Out of all of our individual differences, what is common to us is we are all breathing in, breathing out. 


Ram Dass Breathing Meditation

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.
