“The only thing that I am involved in is the game of perfection. And because of that, when I work with people, or even this teaching, I see the game as a game of moving up and then bringing up the ground with you. It’s like an inverted ’T,’ where you go up the center and then you pull the two bottom lines up with you. So that every new level of consciousness we get into, we then reassess the whole dance of life and keep it together on the physical plane.” – Ram Dass

In this episode:
– Ram Dass, in a very meditative fashion, explores the place of the Mother in the lineage of devotional tantra, talking about taking each experience in your life and redefining it as a form of the Mother
– Krishna Das takes center stage to invoke the Mother through music, inviting the Goddess to come down and bless us all
– Ram Dass gives a detailed breakdown of the process of awakening and becoming enlightened, from purification and opening the heart to quieting the mind and getting the energy to flow

“It’s very far out when you begin not to think. Or the thinking’s going by and you’re not identified with being the thinker. You really think you’ve lost something. It’s a while before you can appreciate the peace that comes from the simplicity of no-mind, of just emptiness, of just not having to be somebody all the time. We’re in training to become nobody. You’ve been somebody long enough. You spent the first half of your life becoming somebody. Now you can work on becoming nobody. Which is really somebody.” – Ram Dass
