Ram Dass (Richard Alpert)
Psychedelics to spirituality
Sayings by Ram Dass (Richard Alpert)
It is important to remember that we are all part of the same big consciousness.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Don't just do something, be there.
The dance between attachment and detachment is the spiritual path.
The cosmic joke is that there's nothing to get, because you already are it.
When you start to see that the universe is made of love, you'll feel it.
Your own being is your guru.
Everything changes. Nothing stays the same.
The only way to find peace is to be peace.
The love you withhold is the pain you carry.
The soul is not a thing. It is a process.
When you stop identifying with your personality, you realize you're much bigger than that.
The greatest illusion is that you are separate from everything else.
You can't get there from here. You are already there.
The only guru is your own heart.
The path of love is the path of letting go.
The only way to heal is to feel.
When you want to assist someone, you consider a field of many variables to help the person. That is compassion.
Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is the best.
Your problem is you are too busy holding on to your fear to see your freedom.
