Ram Dass: Hearing Your Dharma, Hearing Your Part – Here and Now Ep. 220

Ram Dass talks about what it means to hear our dharma and your part in the dance, and why we need to listen to our heart to hear which spiritual method is the right one for us.

Want to be part of the discussion about this episode of Here and Now? Join the Ram Dass Fellowship virtual meetup on March 7th at 3pm EST, sign up for the General Fellowship group here to receive more information.

In this episode, Ram Dass explores:

The intensity of the melodrama of life, and why the game only gets interesting when we have total involvement with no attachment
Hearing our dharma in order to hear our part in the game; even Ravana and Richard Nixon were just playing their parts
The impact that coming into contact with so many different teachers and methods had on his spiritual development
Spiritual transformation and issues of faith
Listening to the heart to hear which spiritual method is the right one for your personal journey

“To look at the universe and see all of the forces – the heavy ones, the light ones, the destructive ones, the creative ones – to find what your part is in it. And if your part is that of the Bodhisattva, that of reducing the suffering of all human beings, and that’s all your work is, you just do it and do it and do it until there is no you in there, there is merely this instrument for the relieving of suffering of all beings. And that is one of the parts of the dance, of which another and equally important [part] of the dance is that which creates all the suffering in the universe. That’s what’s so far out about it.” – Ram Dass

I take a walk in kelowna downtown, it snows and I listen to Ram Dass 💌

[purelivingfamily]

As a parent to a special needs child it is hard to see my dharma outside of that. I was given this child for a reason. It’s a lesson every day. I love Ram Dass’s teachings

[wn__sn]

I've butted heads with my mother so much lately, and I found myself repeating what an old coworker/AA buddy told me years ago "you gotta find your part in it dude".
So here I am sitting alone in a new apartment, no furniture. Just a mattress and my art. And luckily, this Ram Dass through my phone. Had to borrow a charger and raid the cup holder change. Somehow I feel it's still beautiful despite how much it sucks sometimes.

I had a manic episode yesterday, the morning I woke up at 5am and picked up the phone and found THIS PARTICULAR RAMDASS LECTURE.
SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE FOUND RAMDASS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, AND I AM GRATEFUL THAT I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO BEING unknowledgable about what really matters.
Life is so good, so happy I have been given this opportunity to live at this time.
New Leader for America 🇺🇸, A strong, intelligent, experienced, fearless WARRIOR', President Trump, and his extraordinary administration, who will make the necessary changes that have been a long time coming. Amen.
Wonderful to know, "Everything is lawfully unfolding. " And "that it is not by chance that each event occurs. "
Thank you and much love to RamDass.
Now, I can see "OUR CHILDREN WILL BE MIGHTY IN THE LAND. "PSALM 112:2 ❤ 🙏
Wishing everyone Divine Blessings 🙏 Karen Murao

I feel like this mindset, getting in touch with dharma is one of the most fundamental things when you go down that spiritual road & try to understand what it's all about

[aliveandfree]

Today is another special day in my journey. I thankfully receive, what I needed in this lecture from beloved Baba Ram Dass 🙏 Thank you and be love in love

[KristsKarolis]

When Ram Dass was alive, if you opened your heart towards him, you could feel something in the air.

[Bodhi]

I like hearing the breakdown in the beginning of your understanding of the talk. thanks

[BeanTownBruce]

I laughed so hard when he slipped in the fact that he was "still all black and blue from his recent effort to become a bird!" He delivered a brilliant message and pulled off a first class comedy show along with it. You have to love Ram Dass!!🥰

[sat.chid.ananda]

Yknow, the way he explains how "you feel it's just right" when making decisions, it's 100% what i've been attuning myself more and more to this last couple of years, and man it's so much easier to live life like this, i just gotta listen and act towards what feels right...most my life i didnt know that and, i can see now that when i went against that feeling, everything just went to hell. Thank you Ram Dass and to the people that make this available <3

[inlovewithhumans]

Listening to The Likes of Ram Das and Osho and Some Lama or Anyone who makes Such deep Spiritual Sense makes you Feel So much Love and Respect for them for Opening themselves to everyone just to make everyone feel the importance of All Is One, and How We Should Handle our lives..

God Bless All 🙏🌺♥️

[lilrickmartinez]

My son Raymond Angel Luna Martinez. Is the light what God showed me. But now everyone can only see a picture and hear or tell a story about him. Now wait for eternity to begin for me. Just got to keep living this life on earth with all of God's creations. No mistakes. More lights water rocks to see in God's images. What else are you made of gotta wait to see. 💯💙🙏🙏🙏

I love Ram Dass and his knowledge and beautiful soul. His aspect teaches me so much! I honor you! I wish I was able to meet you in the flesh! My heart becomes heavy when I listen to you. Its because you are teaching me even tho you’re in spirit.
