Ram Dass responds to questions dealing broadly with attachment and addiction. Throughout the Q&A he covers a myriad of different concepts including guilt, desire, co-dependency, intimacy, the root causes of negative behaviors, and the founding of Alcoholics Anonymous. Recorded in the Summer of 1989 as apart of 'The Listening Heart' retreat series.

I’m paraphrasing here, but I deeply appreciate these words I once heard from Ram Dass on addiction. “Don’t try to overcome your attachment/addiction. Rather, be patient (by remaining in the present moment) and eventually the addiction won’t be so interesting to cling to - and it will fade.” I have come to learn this truth through my direct experience with addiction. Bless you all, and know that it gets better. 🙏🏽❤️

I’m not religious but what really helped me was feeling so desperate to escape it that I was begging god or the universe or anything to come help me. Nothing came but maybe some part of my own being woke up. I had no mystical experience or anything, eventually I fell asleep. The next day I woke up, got rid of everything, and haven’t used since. Maybe god helps those who help themselves as they say. It’s been only 8 weeks now but it’s the longest part of my adult life by about… 8 weeks. It was much easier than I thought to do. I just had to do it and I think clarifying that I wanted the addiction to end and no one coming to save me really did the trick. Either that or the lord does really work in the most mysterious of ways.

Here's how addiction began with me... "I took drugs because of a deep longing for mystical fulfillment. I was starving metaphysically. I was so hungry I couldn't differentiate food from poison."

As a woman who has been by choice celibate and single for 8 years, Baba Ram Dass speaks to me. I may or may not find an individual willing to journey with me though love without physical intimacy. I spent many years doing quite the opposite, only to find when passion had faded that I was left with a human I barely knew, and often didn't even like. This has been the failure of relationships. The backwards culture that has caused so much grief. I am learning to love myself and accept my aloneness. His teachings on aging are timeless and are helping me so much.

I commented on this video a year ago but I wanted to update: I’m a peer recovery coach now. I help others with their own battle of addiction now with my own stories of how I got through it. That’s my old karma running off. It does get better. Develop the observer. I often use RD’s words: “you don’t need a bus ticket to Detroit when you’re already in Detroit”. The process ever continues. I love you all. ❤

I had an awakening when overcoming my addiction. During it, I became so high on the divine energy, higher than any drug ever got me. I found out later this is the bliss stage of consciousness. I reminisce on the feeling, the messages. Missing that, but knowing that's okay too, makes me welcome and look forward to without attachment to the possibility. Thank you for this video. I needed the reminder/ perspective. Much love and gratitude always. ❤

I've witnessed this in my own life. If I have a habit that I don't like and I want to change it, I've found the best thing for me to do is to just observe it non-judgmentally for a while. I make small attempts to do other things instead but if I fail sometimes that's fine. And over time I find that my subconscious or whatever gets the job done and the habit just falls away, almost effortlessly. It seems to work for starting positive habits too. Awareness + intention + non-judgement is like a magic trick. Things seem to happen "on their own", no willpower needed - just add a bit of patience and hey presto:)

Wow! I have autism. My ability to communicate with words is limited. When asked about the woman's co-dependent relationship with God I wondered how Ram Dass would form his communication into words to answer her question? He had to think but his ability to explain and communicate so deeply is astounding. Maybe I am not progressed enough because I miss him but he is still around smiling at everyone. I can't put that into words how I know this but I feel it is so. He continues to spread love and joy. His videos are pleasant reminders. Thanks.

I also have a toxic mom (narcissist & cult member). I found meditation 4 years ago and my buddhist practice 2 years ago, and I know that this is My Path. Both practices have helped me immensely. I am learning in buddhism what I should have learned in christianity--I have positive role models in buddhism and I had garbage role models in christianity. That makes a huge difference.

I haven't heard any words as true. I've been starved of affection for a while now. I feel like in this lifetime it just isn't in the cards I've been dealt. So I cling to people whenever I can. Trying to feel something, anything. Even if what I feel isn't reciprocated, I like to live in that fantasy for as long as I can. If anyone out there feels alone, I'm with you in spirit. Don't give up on living because someone might be depending on you to help themselves stay alive.

Like I have said, when you are truly enlightened everything is a meditation. When God asked me, what side of the blade are you on. I answered, on the side of the righteous my words are my sword. There is nothing in the Universe that is not a double edged sword. A cup of water can sate and drown. Your shadow can comfort you or trip you. The singularity created us. I was born March 11th in Bethlehem. Schlama means peace. Malkuth means Heaven. Hubba means love. It's the slang of Hebrew. Yeshua of Nazareth spoke both. God told me to make Israel one. It means to bring peace and reconciliation between Jew, Christian, Muslim; cousins by Abraham. L'chaim. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. Sincerely, your local Jewish Sufi Christian Buddhist mystic otherwise known as Hey You.

I remember Ram Das when he wore a suit and was a guest lecturer at Suny at Buffalo. He spoke of his dying mother who he wanted to give LSD. He was impressive then, he's still relevant.

He's always been brilliant. Maharaji got into his heart and changed everything about him. Maharaji is the real gem, and Ram Dass was lucky enough for him to enter his heart

Looking back to 1989...I was raised by animals compared to This Lecture and Teaching. My Parents were addicts and alcoholics. They Never Taught me anything ON purpose. I Learned by Accidents and just going with the flow with No confidence in the 80's and 90's when I was a kid.

This was prior to the need for Trauma Awareness. I have not seen that regular spiritual practice is enough for those heavily addicted. The Trauma must be addressed.

I think he’s wrong about breath work and emotional release. It can be highly effective-The sitting practices are invaluable as complementary tools-but they’re inadequate for trauma release and integration.

"The basic root of suffering is thought, then clinging of the mind to **things which Seperate ONE from ALL OF IT." >> Thoughts/ Feelings/ Action= personality. Clean up thoughts, start here. (Look up Dr. Joe Dispenza, his work is practical, a real game changer) We are consumed by thoughts. It is a wicked conditioning. I've been practicing changing my "beliefs" for almost 20 years. Started in mid 20's when faced with life/ death. Had to surrender as allopathic medicine failed me. I haven't been "sick" since. Had to break away those chains of the mind enslavement. Daily practice is crucial. Stay thirsty my friends. 💝

38:00 is all sex lust? Can sex be used to transcend without lust? 43:20 he answered it. Be at peace with what you want without having what you want.

Take out the colouring on the word lust. Your instincts have developed through evolution to mean that procreation is your number one priority in life. This means that the species continues.

There is an innocence in these older recordings I remember the adults of my childhood I was born in the mid mid 70's There is a noticeable difference now I'm thinking these people could n oil t imagine how much life was going to change with technology I notice many videos with ram dash speaking and nobody is holding a cell phone and a part of me misses those days but also it's allowed me to ffg ind Ram Das I don't have the money he had to go off to India so I'm able to to get some of it through the technology now available but I do miss the way people use ti connect more in the community when out and about
