================
In this episode of, Here and Now, Ram Dass discusses the nature of aging & awakening.
The nature of aging is change. We are fascinated by watching that which changes. When change starts to happen to who we think we are, the fascination turns into fear. We are living in a system that is out of balance; the zeal for independence and individuality has left us alienated from the structures of family, community, and nature.

[@fernandochavez222]

Thank you

[@joleenwatson430]

Thanks!

[@judemiller]

Thank you for this. I'm a young person helping my grandmother through some health problems, and this is giving me comfort and insight.

[@annuarora9656]

So kind ofu

[@eddiearrington8086]

Bless you for your kindness and genuine care for others. Sending love and gratitude

[@greatspaceadventure]

13:50 No apologies necessary, but very kindly appreciated. I am 29, and in all the being very very lost i’ve done throughout my 20s I have silently and subconsciously begun to contemplate aging and death while I still have much of my youth. I am still reckless in mind and body, fighting bad ingrained habits, and trying not to be, just coping rather poorly, but I am always happy to be reminded through this channel that I can and would benefit from paying more attention to the reality around me. Thank you!

The fear of ageing came to me a few months ago while I was experiencing experiential crisis. It ended with a lot of insight and acceptance. It’s good to have such kind of experience and knowledge when you’re young because you will want to rethink about your life and your priorities. Otherwise people tend to live recklessly when they young

Im 26 but somehow this is relatable for the changes I went through during pregnancy and after childbirth. 🌱

[@TheGinger5678]

the aging poems are priceless...45:48

[@Captaincrunchh]

Lol im 25 and was amused with this... then i got called out

[@brandankelly4069]

Why is it denying aging to keep the body fit and in good condition? Exercising is also good for the mind, so it doesn’t necessarily follow that going to the gym is a denial of reality.

[@nannesoar]

HAHAHAHA IM 22 SCREW YOU OLD PEOPLE!!!!!!! :) jk!

[@rosenajia2384]

Well you have a choice. Die young. Or get old. So depending on your choice, you'll be one of us old people.

[@shelleymichelle9215]

Hilarious poem at the end!! Aging as deepening into being 🍀 and letting go 🌸

[@toussaintmary]

Here I am at 43… dying… so that I may live… living… and preparing for death… here I am… here and now… but soon… to be no more… nothing to be… nothing special. Here I am at 43.

[@RovingRoy]

If you are in tune with spirit, no matter what age you are, you have relevance. If you are shallow, then when you get older, you either just ramble incessantly or become a catatonic vegetable sitting in front of a TV.

[@AwakeningYourFlow]

Perhaps…

[@stephens6354]

Talk from 1993, according to intro.
