Using dualism to step into non-dualism, through the Heart, is the essence of the Bhakti path. Ram Dass explains his personal journey in attempting to be an instrument of the unconditional Love he experienced in the presence of his Guru, and his struggle to convey the concept of Devotion to his Western audience. Being in the presence of Neem Karoli Baba penetrated his paranoid defenses and released in him an innocence he didn’t know existed. This intrinsic potential became the gift he feels we can all offer one another. (Woodacre, CA – 9/14/1996) Please click the following link for additional Ram Dass teachings on the Guru:
It is the ground that permeates my life as well. Namaste, Janice

This lecture came just in time to pull me out of a dark place.
yesssss!! such a treat!! I thought I had heard every lecture available..THANK YOU!!!
Awesome video… I heartily agree with the message. One's imagination is a force of nature. Likewise, having an "imaginary friend" may prove equally powerful. :)
EDIT: it's a beautiful teaching, and i'm humbled to see myself as a result of my initial resistance & criticism.
This was lovely, thank you =)
