For my spiritual work, I had to hear what Alan Watts used to say to me: "Ram Dass, God is these forms. God isn't just formless. You're too addicted to formlessness." I had to learn that. I had to honor my incarnation. I've got to honor what it means to be a man, a Jew, an American, a member of the world, and a member of the ecological community. I have to figure out how to do that - how to be in my family and honor my father. All of that is part of it.
That is the way I come to God, by acknowledging my uniqueness. That's an interesting turnabout in a way. That brings spiritual people back into the world.
