Take a 60 Second Meditation Break with Ram Dass
Be gentle with yourself today. Let the waves rise and fall. 🌊🌊🌊
When I start thinking, “I’m Ram Dass, and I’ve worked on myself, and I’m supposed to be equanimous, loving, present, clear, compassionate, accepting,” oftentimes I get tired, I get angry and petulant, and I close down. For a long time, I’d get into those states and I would feel really embarrassed because that isn’t who Ram Dass is "supposed" to be.
So I would appear like I was warm, charming, equanimous, compassionate, and there were deviousness and deception involved. Then I realized that’s bad business because that cuts us off from one another… and I had to risk my truth. I had to risk being human with other people and realize that what we offer each other is our truth, and our truth includes all of our stuff.
🦋 The first thing I had to do was accept my own truth. I had to allow myself to be a human being. 🦋
Now, what I found was that as I started to allow myself to be more human, just allowed what I am, things changed much faster in me. I mean, things fell away more quickly. It was as if I was locked into a model which was based on that negativity, that dislike of myself; and once I just allowed myself to be human, with all the foibles, things started to flow, and I could feel a change occurring in myself.
Then, I started to experience my own beauty and it frightened me because it was so dissonant and discrepant from the model that I had cultivated of myself over the years. The dissonance between the idea that I had to do good in order to be beautiful and that idea that I just am… and that what is, is in its own way beautiful.

The quality of the heart is that it loves without discrimination, it just loves, it has no boundaries. The mind is continually setting boundaries. 'This is me, this is not me, this is good, this is bad.'
•
The mind is constantly judging, the heart is not judging, the heart is just opening. The heart is without boundaries, so the mind is actually afraid of the heart. That's what the interesting thing is, the battle that goes on in us - you're afraid of your own heart because your heart will give away the store.
•
The heart says, ‘You need my car, you need my house, you need my life, take it.’ And the mind is saying, ‘Now wait a minute. You've got your health insurance to pay, keep cool, don't blow the whole scene.’
•
So the interesting question is, when and under what conditions can you meet people in such a way that you can keep your heart open without giving up your discriminative wisdom about how to be with another person?
