Beginning by quoting several sacred texts, Ram Dass explains how we begin with our belief in dualism as we seek non-dualism. He discusses growing to enlightenment and sharing purification through working on ourselves and our own energies. Ram Dass compares our spirits to the way light spreads, feeding into the beings around us and shining from those beings onward to create purification, like ripples on a lake. He begins relating an experience at a Buddhist monastery in Ceylon as this portion ends. – (2/3/1970 – SF,CA)
