Via Ram Dass - Love Serve Remember Foundation / Words of Wisdom - March 29, 2020 💌





"Each of us is living in our own universe, created out of our projected attachments. That’s what we mean when we say, 'You create your own universe.' We are creating that universe because of our attachments, which can also be avoidances and fears. As we develop spiritually and see how it all is, more and more we keep consuming and neutralizing our own reactivity.
Each time we see ourselves reacting we’re saying, 'Right, and this situation too, and this one too, Tat Tvam Asi, and that also, and that also, and that also.' Gradually the attachments start to lose their pull and to fall away. We get so that we’re perfectly willing to do whatever we do – and to do it perfectly and without attachment. "

Via Daily Dharma: Break the Cycle of Reaction

When there is no attachment or identification with thoughts and feelings, there is no reactive push into action creating more doing, more karma. … We get to the point where our acts are not done out of attachment but instead are just done as they’re done, and no new stuff is being created.
