Ram Dass - Have a Good Journey - Full Lecture 

I was 18 and an inner voice lead me to your book: be here now. It saved my life. Now I'm 61. .... Big hug to you in heaven

I'm here, now. Just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge all who are listening. I'm honored to be taking this form at the same short period as all you wonderful beings and to be coming to awareness in this lifetime. (In the two months I've posted this it's aroused the attention of 430 beautiful souls, expressing positivity and love. You may doubt still but I have seen too much love to be a non-believer.. this isn't meshugana stuff.)

I wonder how many young people listens to Ram Dass.. the year is 2024 - 25yo ☺️

I think I’m having conversations with Ram Dass through his lectures and through spiritual contact. I’ll have a problem or issue going on and then I’ll pick a “random” lecture of his and hear something that is a direct response relating to what’s going on with me. I’ll also have conversations with him in my head. I’m not sure if those are real but they help either way

28 years ago I was lost in drug addiction.. I was digging through an old box of books in an abandoned garage and I came across Emmanuel's book.. on the inside front cover somebody had wrote " Dearest David I hope this book helps you on your New journey Love Lyndsey " I have no idea who you are,Lyndsey but it did help me in a big way on my new journey. I've been clean and sober ever since. Today I am happy joyous and free! Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️!

Still so relevant and inspiring and funny ....Today in 2022 when it was recorded in 1990 ....Namaste 🙏❤️

“You’re no longer one thought away from where the action is; you are the breath, you’re not somebody breathing.” Thank you, Ram Dass.

I love you Ram Dass - thank you for guiding us home...this is an excellent lecture. Great to hang out with you!

I've just found this. Profoundly timeless, yet applicable to 2022. Awesome.

Ram said something profound to me that I try to remember in the beginning stages of anger. I usually remember it at the end, after I’ve fought to ‘prove my point’. When my body is aching and I feel sick with the unreasonableness of people. To be seen as righteous in my anger by the one or thing it’s directed at.. that’s what I want more than anything. But in that moment at the end when the battle is over I realize I have gained nothing, because your not arguing with someone that can listen or reason, remember. He said, “i would rather be free than right.” My interpretation: in life you will be beset on all sides , especially on social media, by people who don’t want to ‘reason’ or can’t. You will have great battles with lovers, family, and You will have valid reasons to be angry. Your anger WILL be righteous and ‘worthy’ of vengeance. BUT. The lesson is, would you rather be righteous about your indignation? Or would you rather be free? So try to give up anger as much as you can and keep working on it. And keep listening to Ram lectures everyday. ‘Give up anger and I’ll help you.’ ‘You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”

I hope many young twenties are finding Ram Das too. He changed my life at 21 at the Arlington Street Church.

“The art is to neither have hope or to be hopeless. Just be quiet, listen, and respond.” ~Ram Dass

God, how I love this man!!!

I just discovered Ram Dass 2 weeks ago and I feel such a profound kinship to him and his message. Namaste my friend. I wish I could have met you on this physical plane.

ram ram ram. his voice reminds me and puts me at ease

Loved this precious man since the early 90s..i was 16ish im 49 now. Bless u all..what a fascinating time to be alive Much love from Texas xo

This is funny, I went to the store and I left my phone in my room turned off. I come back and I hear that my phone is on and a video is playing and it's this video that was playing. Thank you, Ram Dass. Much love!

What I love about his teachings is that he uses humor. It makes the process of enlightenment feel like it isn’t such a serious business or a structural thing. Even that in itself can be a trap.

I just found this for the first time. Deeply profound and timeless wisdom. Listening to this with my heart open in 2023. Thank you for your service on Earth 🌏 , Ram Dass. ❤💖🤍🤍💖❤️

A very very very very very very very very VERY deep thank you to Ram Dass.

these lectures got me through the darkest times of my life. now i just listen to his voice and it brings me so much relief. wishing you all love and happiness 💗💐

Man, I'm glad i clicked on this lecture. I had heard of Ram Dass, but never listened to any of his talks. He was a really cool guy. I can see why he was a grief counselor (or something like that).

Thanks for showing us where we can hang out with each other Ram Dass. Here we are

I'm grateful for youtube, despite its problems. Beautiful videos like this heal.

Wow 20+ years ago Ram Dass said, Donald Trump....somebodys gotta be him. Haha. Prophetic. Always a great listen. Truth is etetnal.

That was really beautiful and timeless. It's so funny to hear a talk from the 90s and have it resonate so deeply with me in 2022 :)

Light, life, and love to everyone seeing this. 👏🏽

Struggling right now. Thank you

Listing to him after 26 years, still feels I am at his lecture. Feel blessed same as the audience in that day in 1996 🙏🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much

Best times of my Life were hanging out with Ram Dass in New Mexico for 2 - 10 day retreats in the mid/ late 80's. Mind blowing times! Grateful beyond words! Maharaji felt so close to my heart also while reading Miracle Of Love . Ahhhhh. Now- Grateful for these u tube talks!! ❤️

Thank you, Ram Dass. God bless for the usual pleasant lesson with such clarity. God bless❤

You feel a pain and dis-ease, you go to a therapist and the therapist helps you rearrange the furniture in the cell. - Baba Ram Dass

I’m so happy to see such lovely people here. Keep spreading the love!

Ram dass came to me in meditation, I had a conversation with him . It was absolutely the most beautiful amazing experience…. My journey will never be the same ! It feels so good .

You gotta give it all up to have it all….and that one too…and that one too…the paradox is just so beautiful. What a dance. Ram Ram

Respect love and gratitude. You are unlimited

Your compassion for the suffering of others helps my brokenness to see how others like my husband felt and how helpless we were to help each other. Now 37 years later I have compassion for everyone and am grateful for the experience of how deeply we must go to find we are all one in suffering. I love you Ram Dass. Listen to me I will never forsake you I will always remember yo

If your listening or have listened , your on the path , the journey is real 🏁🏁🏁

Ram Dass had such a way with words and to me that’s what made these lectures so wonderful to listen to!

Love him. So soothing. Bless you Baba Ram Dass 🙏🏽

Best lecture ever, love you Ram Dass ♥

Yay. Ram Dass saves me from myself every time :-)

Heart to heart recussitation is a good metaphor.

I cannot put into words how much these teachings have helped me. I am forever grateful and hope to share these lessons with other people in my daily life too!

His voice , laugh and message is like a clear soothing flow of river .

Truly Sublime Thank You Beloved Baba Ram Dass❤ Ah Sa Hum Namaste 🙏 ❤

I find it so interesting how he explains addiction in such simple terms and with such compassion. It's astounding because he spends 3 minutes explaining something that is the topic of several 2 hour documentaries. We need his perspective now more than ever in 2023. It's an honor to be here now with all of you beautiful nobodies ❤ 😊

Excellent sound quality. I woke up to this video, he was talking in my dreams. Excellent voice too.

Every time I see Ram Dass smiling it creates a very warm, hopeful and light feeling in me. His infinite compassion blows me away every time. Have a good journey wherever you are now, my man!

What experience and what an amazing journey. It may feel like we are loosing our minds but as I notice, that might be entirely the point. Love and blessing to you all and thank you Ram Dass. There are no words for what is, just a feeling of infinite thanks...and love. This may be one of the same as well.

May all beings everywhere be happy, may all beings everywhere be peaceful, may all beings everywhere be free. May all beings everywhere awaken to the light of their inherent divinity, consciousness, oness, truth.

Like mind and heart and want to grow with integrity-yes.

I’m about 23 minutes in and there’s so much goodness already jam packed in here. Love his examples of time relationships and how the possibility of reincarnation seems to “grow on you.” 😂 Always love you RD and thankful for this community 🤍🙏🏼

Baba Raam Daas Is my new guru. I found this year in the start of 2022. I understood my connection to Hanuman ji and Baba Raam Daas. His lectures started popping up in my RU-vid randomly just exactly when I need. I love Baba Raam Daas from my heart and soul. His every word is blessing to me! Jay Hanuman! Be here now ✨

I have heard of Baba Ram Dass from several people throughout my life, mostly after his death, but this collection is the 1st I have been able to experience him. Amazing how we are drawn to certain things in this world, thank you for providing this opportunity to hear his loving comforting & inspirational words. Now I feel like telling others about Baba Ram Dass!

My heart expands and melts as I listen to Ram Dass sing at time stamp1:36. Ram Dass, thank you for sharing your love.

i never heard this chant but i feel like ive heard the melody before in the same way he was doing it in major, i was listening to this at work and when listened to the chant the 2nd-5th time i was crying idk why even now listening to it it getting me teary eyed, It's peaceful, happy and sad at the same time with some nostalgia, then you hear others join in and i feel everyone doing it

God bless u your family for generations 🙏🙏💓

If anybody ever doubted that Ram Dass was a powerful spiritual being… just remember during this talk, there was an infant who understood him,& that baby sorrowfully cried when he mentioned the death of a Child.

Love that you looked in the eyes of Trunpa. He was my first teacher. I was so into him and wanted to meet him but was told he died years ago but yet his teachings reached me. Years later you are now my teacher Ram Dass thank you. No more games. The truth sure takes time. Love you thank you

May God bless Ram Dass forever and ever 💞

Ram Dass always keeps my heart simultaneously breaking and bursting with joy, and that dwelling in my heart is always the solace in wisdom and authenticity that my mind requires.❤

Beyond brilliant. Beyond beautiful. LOVE

Truly Beautiful Thank you ❤ 🙏🌻 Namaste

Ever since I was a child, I've wondered how it is that I managed to get into this body. I'd think to myself, "Why am I not in that body over there?" ... I once asked a therapist if he ever had that thought, and he said, simply, "No."

What a fantastic group of people this man has aided in waking up... I have been listening to him for a few months now... Him and Allan watts... I listen to their material multiple times and each time I gain more understanding. Gratitude is what I have in my heart.... For them and for all of you.

Thanks!

When I listened to this lecture for the first time, there was something about the chanting ( @1:36:19 ) that really struck me with a powerful feeling. Just feeling. Just the feeling of being human. Now it is a normal part of my meditative routine. Hovering over the video and seeing that this part is the "most replayed", I'm guessing I'm not the only person who feels this way..

thank you so much my heart goes out to all fellow souls without exception

Ram Dass" laughter is so good at ears.. just like kids laughter

Absofrigginlutely…🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼

i’m 20 and i bought be here now about 2 years ago. ever since then ram dass has changed my life. i love all of everyone who sees this, and i am blessing all who is like minded, in love, and eternity❤️

Love you forever, Ram Dass! Thank YOU!💙❤️♥️🙏🙏🙏

I love to love this feeling...This journey is now 💞 Happy journey everyone

Amazing how relevant this is 30 years later... Wow 💜🙏

Omggg “the therapist helps you rearrange the furniture in the cell.”

timeless beautiful wisdom, ram dass still shining his beautiful Light to the world 💛

Thank you for being here now with open hearts and minds as servants.

💓LOVE YOU ALL💞

Luke 17:21 "21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." Matthew 6:33 "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Unfortunately, almost all of us do it the other way around. Going through avoidable sufferings and then seek the treasure within that has been obscured by external destructions. Thanks to Jesus and teachings like Ram Dass for enabling us to discover our true Self❤❤❤

It’s the end of the world and I feel fine. ☮️❤️🙏

Namaste 🙏 to everyone who is listening to this wonderful speech by Sri Ram das

I love to listen to Ram Dass. His wisdom, his stories and so naked honesty.

❤ TY. Great session!

Such a beautiful soul.

Ram Dass was commendably dedicated to being sincere and being present.

This man was a one of a kind. Much love Mr Late Ram Dass.

Be here now( the book version) also came to me whilst cleaning a basement,! Much love to us all!

Laughing, crying and Gaining knowledge ❤⭐️

Brilliant ! ❤

Thank you for your message. It is a message of many to my spirits awakening. In 2022 you’re message is more prophetic and needed than ever. You would be laughing your ass off at the irony of your comments on Mr. Trump. Someone has to take the journey. I am thankful mine is more in line with yours and so many others who are called to bring light and abundance to the spirits on this journey. Til we meet again dear friend much love and peace.

Thank you for reminding me, once again, to keep compassion coming. Holy ( “ just holy”). ❤ “You can say no”, but don’t close down when doing it. “You don’t have to close your heart to tie your camel.”

Be Here Now ... I had that book... super trippy stuff!!! I loved it!!!

"If any of us are homeless then we are all homeless." You just can't tell because we ignore it.

This guy's voice is wonderful all on its own. Rings of truth and knowledge

so thankful for all that Ram Dass is. Powerful teachings to absorb and share.

Does this thing ever end. Baba Ram Dass: IT NEVER BEGAN I am tearing

I needed this s bad! Thank u He is so funny and so calming!

U da man rass. Rest easy ur work lives on.

Ram Das, wish I could have met you so many times over during the years we both walked the Earth. Even so, you are here now. Thank you for the honor of your guidance for those of us counter cultural types. As a powerful guide, help us surrender to freedom. You were not just positive. Help us with wisdom over zeal and liberation over oppression. Let us wade through the lakes of oppression as they were filled with calm and gentle waters. Let us all rise above the current and float above to safety.
