My dad died yesterday of heart complications at 43 years old.
I’m grateful for Ram Dass’ numerous lectures on death, grief and reincarnation as I begin to move through this process. I’d love to hear some general words of wisdom, advice, or your favorite Ram Dass books, quotes, and lectures on the subject. Thank you.
My friend and I have been going crazy trying to find the context of this quote we are pretty sure we got from Ram Dass. We use to say it to each other to get through things. "Your girlfriend broke up with you. Ok. Now what?", "You've realized you are a drug addict. Ok. Now what?". In Ram Dass context it might have been some idea of omnism or something. Just driving me crazy. Might not have been him but it seems right.
I have always had an appreciation for Lord Vishnu and have experienced moments where I wondered if I should work with him. So recently Vishnu had been making contact with himself just putting his name into my mind on a repeated basis and I am very grateful for this. When the mantra ended it felt like everything that is ever a concern need not be dwelled on for too long and if I need to be protected from evil by being a good person then Lord Vishnu is a very good resource.
I have never felt so at peace before. I have had small moments where I felt a little peace but this kind was just overwhelming in the peaceful grace as well as peace of mind. The warmth was so beautiful.
And I do not care who looks down on me for Lord Vishnu worship or appreciation, as I am a white person who plays these mantras outside of my apartment window, and people in their cars judge me. But of course these people are still trapped in a cycle of rebirth and many reincarnations.
Wishing you all the best in Lord Vishnu's name, Namaste, Ram Ram
Hey yall!
I’ve been in a long distance relationship with this amazing woman for about almost 2 years now. She lives 2 and a half hours away from me and we see each other every other week. We’ve been going through some turbulence the past couple months due to many factors. I’ve felt more disconnected from her than ever before, what disrupted our flow was me bringing up the lack of sensual intimacy we share and my concern for if we may just not be compatible in that regard. Her response that she voiced was extremely valid it was my negligence and ignorance in the past that caused her to fear loving me all the way. Unfortunately months later after communicating it still feels we are in the same place, I was always feel like im initiating and constantly getting rejected physically and it hurts. I dont know whether the problem is my high sex drive or if we are simply just incompatible sexually. I am confident enough to say that most of the problems within our relationship typically stem from me, so I just am left with the expectation of me being in the wrong again. I feel so selfish and scared, I adore this woman and fear hurting her any more than I already have, it feels like a battle of intuition and fear of whether or not I should continue this relationship and I honestly feel like I cant tell the difference anymore.
Thank you any feedback would help🙏🙏 Ram Ram
