Re: Ram Dass, Emblem of the Consciousness Revolution, Has Died
I heard him speak in Austin in the mid eighties. I heard what I needed to hear and I have carried a very simple sentence with me since. It filled me with hope.

The sentence: I have every character defect I was born with, but instead of these huge, looming monsters eating me alive, they are now more like friends I occasionally invite round for tea.

Be here now is on a little note next to my mirror.

Re: Ram Dass, Emblem of the Consciousness Revolution, Has Died
I'd heard these names for many years, & only just a few years ago did I finally dig into them. I'd heard these people were connected to CIA MK-Ultra & other programs, but dug in all the same. I started with Timothy Leary's "Turn on, Tune in, Drop out" recording. Within 30 seconds I became aware that he was using clinical hypnosis in his speaking. I managed several minutes of it before I pulled the plug.

Combining psychedlic drugs with clinical hypnosis techniques isn't my idea of enlightenment. Just present me the information & I'll decide for myself. If you want insight into Eastern philosophy, go read English translations of the 4 Vedas & the Upanishads. You don't need these schuysters & their mind control parlor tricks to achieve that.

Trust in your own judgement in all things. God endowed you with common sense & it's your sword & shield.

RIP Ram Dass hf

Or read the Bhagawat Gita. Teachings for mere mortals.

The Vedas and upanishads have the same message but were written in a different culture. It might take a lot of time and the message might be mistranslated.

Wonder how many he led astray? Sadly soon He'll know the reality of:

"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment"

" That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."

Bless Ram Dass. Just trying to consider the level of information and influence he exposed to the world. Neem Karoli Baba. He is one of those powerhouse saints. He is omnipresent, a refuge. Just a few stories of him are mind-blowing.
