Accept Yourself The Way You Are - Ram Dass | A Life Changing Speech 

Self acceptance is self realisation. Self understanding becoming self worth. Self awareness self esteem becoming self mastery. Is the result of self acceptance. People who self hate, self loath, self pity because you lack self acceptance.

Great speech, but the music is too loud in my opinion. Thanks for sharing tho!

If you avoided this, when you get older and look at the world we have a surreal and strange feeling about the beliefs, behavior, and rules that others follow. You sit on the outside of history and are free, yet its like watching a TV show of unauthentic experience everywhere you go.

Ram Dass is hitting the nail. Wish he could hit the stop button on that ambiance also

That video discribes me, every opinions and step i take, I think to myself, are my steps good enough, or am I going to be good as people expect me to be, I just realized how many times I ask myself than,s to this man's explaination

Spot on again!! 🙏

All these people listening to an enlightened person explaining the negative root of judging, and you go and judge this video... Notice my judgy undertone? You see the constant irony we're living in?

Good message 👏👏👏

I assume self acceptance is not giving a shit what others think of you. To live your life as you choice, with the understanding that some folks will still fell you are selfish/or obeying the pack mentally by just being you, instead of “faking” the real you, so that you are accepted world. Life is hard and I personally, just want to just be me and do me…I’m not hurting or hating on anyone else, I’m not trying to control, envy, hate or destroy other people for being who they are…and yet I find myself fighting other people, who try to make people into obedient robots, so that they can “supposedly” be happy, yet I know that is just bullshit…it take more energy running other peoples shit and your own shit…it is tiresome and a waste of this one life, we have on this planet.

This might be the first time that I felt rage listening to Ram Dass. Or I should say, trying to listen to Ram Dass over ear splitting noise

Definitely could not concentrate due to the music

This is spot on, this man was tapped in to GOD!❤

Music was too loud and washed out the speech. Great speech though!

Oh my Lord. Could we make the music any louder?

It would be better with NO background music or much less volume.

Music is way too loud. But thank you for the video.

The verb "Appreciate" earn't a knew meaning for me.

Accepting and being your true self is the best way to be,even if you are an arsehole,I don't do fake or pretence.

I don’t feel as though the music style fits his message. Something more gentle perhaps. It doesn’t need to feel “epic” IMO. That being said; thank you for the effort and for uploading. 🙏

The background music is uneeded

Music way too loud. We here to listen the sound track or the speech? The way this was edited the sound track is the focus.

The music is too loud compared to the voice of Ram Dass

world conditions us to be a cog in the machine. it conditions us to be that of factory workers, aka robots aka sheep. It judges us for being creative, crazy of any extremity or sort..

what the hell with the musiccc... couldnt hear properly

I’d like to give my Christian perspective on this. And I really would love to go into detail, but I’m going to make it shorter here. So if anyone wants more, or has more questions, let me know…. I believe that we are made in the image of God, but yet we chose to give in to temptation and go against what God had said, which let all kinds of horrible things enter the world. So, I believe that we have both in us- we were made good, and have good qualities because of that. But we also have bad qualities because of sin. We have both good and bad in us. I think that’s pretty obvious. We do good things sometimes and we do bad things sometimes. We are imperfect human beings. We aren’t completely horrible and wretched because God made us and created us perfect to begin with. and that makes us good. But we have also sinned, which brought those bad qualities into us and the world. So I think I respectfully disagree with the whole “zero” thing. Because I see it as good and bad (there is no neutral). BUT, I also believe that, for some reason so do tend to really hone in and focus on our negative qualities, while at them same time not giving ourselves credit for the positive. It’s like the positive is actually our “zero”, where we think, well I should be that way so why should I be proud of myself for that? When in reality, we have just as much right and should celebrate the good things we do just as much as we hate the bad things we do- THAT’s the difference! We should acknowledge our negative traits, but not overemphasize them or beat ourselves up so much over them so long as we are trying to get better in that area and not just purposely and proudfully acting that way. As long as we are continually trying to improve ourselves and grow and learn, we are okay. And we need to also give more Focus on and give ourselves more credit to the good things we do!! And to end, this is why we can never be “good enough” to enter Heaven. Because we are imperfect and even just one sin keeps us from Heaven. And that is why Jesus died for us. So we would have a way!!! If you don’t know the Lord, come to Him today, imperfections and all, because we are all imperfect, and that’s exactly why Jesus died!!! He knows and He wants you to know Him!! I pray you will. It’s the best thing I ever did and it will fill you up with so much hope and peace. Not that you won’t go through hard times. You will. But you will have God to call on for strength in those times. God loves you, flaws and all! Come to Him. When you understand the depth and width and height of Hid unconditional love, THEN you can learn to love and accept yourself just the way you are!!!

The music is very disturbing, the content very important

There is so much in what he is saying. But why the music? I find it both unnecessary and distracting. Unless he said this backstage at a somber strings concert.

thanks. music was distracting for me. the message is inspiring without it.

Annnoyinggg loud music drowned every fucking word and I’m having anxiety attack ...

I think it's the same band of musicians that drown out dear Alan Watts too. It's like they are trying their best to block out freedom of speech. Great content, however, if you can bend your hearing accordingly.

That thumbnail flic look creepy as hell

Too bad the music is that high!! So disturbing! And it’s not needed at all.. Who thought this was a good idea? It doesn’t anything to the message

Music ruins this...

Speak for yourself - I do judge trees.. ffs

Why the Ozzy Osbourne evil synth while RD talks? Your need to bring out people’s emotions while he talks is literally contrary to what he is speaking. Whatever gets your clicks huh?

Annoying music

Ruined it with the music
