The Great Way (3rd Chinese Patriarch)

[@birthingtheluminousself9201]

Over many decades I've listened to Ram Dass read this Zen classic hundreds of times, I'd guess...and it always brings solace and comfort, reminding us of the Vastness in the midst of earth's trials and turmoils...such a blessing! Bowing to all who are awakening...Sending LOVE.

I first heard it in 1974 on the record Love Serve Remember, while on acid. I still have the record and the message is still resonating.

[@Tipasa100]

I listen to it a lot.

Who’s listening here in 2024?

Hi

[@jonathancarter6831]

I love this profound nugget of wisdom which is spoken so beautifully. This is my go to when I need to sober up from the dream that keeps pulling me back into it, this is my go to to reinvigorate that truth within my being, that stability, anchor to spirit, that sanity amongst a world gone mad. Thankyou, for this beautiful soul.

No he says hold no preferences. When love and hate are absent

[@jeremyk9000]

@@allinthemind2006 it's an order that Maharaji asked Ram Das to do. It's not to do with the reading

[@EvanToler]

There's physical love (lust, passion) true love is living in the unconditional love of God with no preference or prerequisite. Love everything because it's all you. ​@@allinthemind2006

But it's only human nature to have preferences, right? Do you prefer a warm, sunny tropical climate? Or a cold, icy arctic climate?

Is there a voice reading the lines before he says them? Or am I just tripping?
