Ram Dass on his Spacesuit

SouthBound-ArKane.. Featuring Jimmy Leahey, Fred Testa. Not mixed yet

 Ram Dass leads a 35 minute meditation, originally recorded January 1981, in Sydney Australia. 

Ram Dass guides a soma (divine nectar) meditation, focusing on drawing the living spirit in through the breath and body - and releasing the stuff in you that is keeping you from being with the universe: fears, negativity, doubt, inadequacy, anger, loneliness...replenishing your body with healing energy. Release the things you don't need in order to be in the spirit.

- 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...

From Separation To Source

What practices, methods, or techniques can we use to connect with and more fully embody a deeper state of awareness? 

The nature of our individual karmic predicament is as unique as the path we will take in an effort to uncover the truth of our circumstance. When we first begin to recognize that who we are is not limited to time and space, we often wonder how we can effectively investigate our growing curiosity. In this lecture, Ram Dass offers a detailed and informative exploration of several traditional forms of yoga that can be applied in our daily lives to facilitate working with, rather than against, our humanity.

This Way to the EGRESS cascades onto the stage in a breathtaking explosion of sound and color that’s equal parts unruly vaudeville, ebullient world beat band and three ring circus. The six-person troupe plays a swooning, crooning, swinging amalgamation of styles that catapults the audience through time and space with unexpected shifts of styles, costumes and time signatures. Confetti snowstorms, tuba farts, Balinese chanting, fire wielding evangelists,  and puppets sweep across the stage creating a jubilant, anything goes atmosphere, anchored by the band’s superlative songwriting skills and sterling musicianship. Accordion, violin and tuba aren’t instruments you usually find fronting a rock band, but This Way to the EGRESS uses them to give the music unexpected textures, while retaining a propulsive beat and generating enough energy to light up a small city.

“We always have a hard time figuring out what genre we fit into,” says Taylor Galassi, the accordion wielding bon vivant who founded EGRESS, with the help of his partner, piano plunker, fiddler and leading lady Sarah Shown. “We’re surfing on a hard-hitting wave of many colors. Gypsy, punk, ska, ragtime, Klezmer, blues and Balkan beats all wrapped up into one crazy foot stomping good time. We let the music take us where it will, regardless of genres and geography.”
