Via Ram Dass - Love Serve Remember Foundation \\ Words of Wisdom - December 10, 2023 💌

 


The devotional path isn't necessarily a straight line to enlightenment. There's a lot of back and forth, negotiations if you will, between the ego and the soul. You look around at all the aspects of suffering, and you watch your heart close in judgment. Then you practice opening it again and loving this, too, as a manifestation of the Beloved, another way the Beloved is taking form.

Your love grows vast. In Bhakti, as you contemplate, emulate, and take on the qualities of the Beloved, your heart keeps expanding until you see the whole universe as the Beloved...even the suffering.

- Ram Dass
From Ram Dass – Here & Now – Ep. 178 – The Path of the Heart
