Nectar of the Living Spirit Meditation

On this special day honoring women around the world, we are pleased to present this unique meditation from Ram Dass on the Divine Mother. Ram Dass recalls how Maharaji would always speak to the Westerners of the importance of Divine feminine energy. As young men and women in those early days with Him, it was clear that their path to becoming whole and complete in their search for unconditional love, compassion, and wisdom depended on our relationship with the Divine Feminine.

Ram Dass - Divine Mother Meditation

Ram Dass leads a 28-minute Vipassana meditation on bringing our mind to one point through the breath. This process must be done gently, the mind must remain soft, subtle, buoying and light. 

As your mind begins to concentrate, emotions will rise to the surface - greed, lust, doubt, anger, agitation… just notice them, don’t feed them or judge them - then gently return to the breath.

We keep the awareness gently riding on the breath, noting sensations rising and then passing away, like leaves floating down the stream.

Ram Dass leads you through a series of reflections on suffering – suffering in this world, suffering others have caused us, suffering we have caused others. How do you find balance in the horrible beauty of the natural world?

Reflections On Suffering – 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

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.
