Mindrolling with Raghu Markus

Ep. 87 - Ram Dass On The Near Death Experience


Listen Later

Ram Dass talks with the Mindrollers about NDE, the safety of death, light beings, the Soul Pod, the Tibetan Book of the Dead…and G-d’s extensive wardrobe. He ends with describing his joy at witnessing the awakenings of so many people he has influenced.
Episode Outline:
• Ram Dass’ Impression of the NDE - We are ushered into the perspective of the Soul, and encounter other ‘light beings’ that seek to understand our connection to our previous incarnation. These beings are our ‘Soul Land Companions’
• From Ego to Soul - When we operate at the Soul level, our perception shifts into a heightened state of compassionate awareness
• The Soul comes directly from God - The Atman (the One) is in everything. We move from Ego, to Soul, to the One - from that place of awareness, we are all indistinguishable • The Soulpod Satsang
• The Unifying Bond of the ‘Soul Complex’ (The Undying Soul)
• Drop, Become, Merge - Moving out of the perceptual mind and into the ocean of Love • ‘Death is Safe’ - Approaching death, without being overcome by fear
• Parallels Between Psychedelics, NDE, and The Tibetan Book of the Dead
• Cultural/Religious Imprinting (God’s Extensive Wardrobe) - There are many forms, but the message is consistent
• Approaching the Transition - Ram Dass describes his experience and preparation in moving closer to death. Everything he can say and do is under the control of Maharaji. He witnesses all that comes to him with joy, rather than attachment
• Unending Awakening - Ram Dass continues to awaken through everything and everyone that he encounters. We can always trust in the eternal presence of Love, in whatever form it comes
• Dropping the Body - In death, the Soul drops the body, and moves on, in an intimate relationship with God, with the One
