“If we only live in the left side of the heart, devotion can become too emotional. The feeling becomes the practice instead of the doorway to deeper qualities of the heart. Grief, if we are only in the left side of the heart, can loop, can continue without metabolizing. The heart can stay open, but it’s not grounded. The practitioner gets blown away by the emotions of daily life.” –RamDev

April 08Ep. 135 – Collective Grief
Explaining how collective grief may manifest as anger, RamDev teaches listeners how they can transform negative emotions into compassionate action.
"It’s imperative to feel permission to feel your own grief, to not feel you have to get over it." –RamDev
This week on Healing at the Edge, RamDev discusses:
The universal experience of grief
The weight of broken promises in America
How grief was handled more collectively in traditional societies
The diluting force of anger and moments of tunnel vision
When anger can actually be a productive response to grief
What the Buddha said regarding anger
Learning to be with grief without bypassing, suppressing, or drowning in it
Resting in sky-like boundlessness, watching emotions pass like the weather
"The energy of anger as a grief response can be a productive response if we can begin to work with the emotion. What does it feel like? How can I transmute the feeling of anger into compassionate action? There is a lot of very powerful, strong juice behind the anger. It can be harnessed. It can be used to protest, to create change.” –RamDev

“Would it be possible to have good, strong, appropriate boundaries if you were not centered in the first place? Would it be possible to have some ongoing loving relationship with yourself, with God, with another human being, if you were not centered?” –RamDev

"One of the most reliable ways to stabilize love is to seed it, to feel it down in the lower belly, the pelvis, the second chakra. This is not a withdrawal from the heart, but a rooting of love into embodiment, gravity.” –RamDev

January 14Ep. 132 - Everything Is Possible By God’s Name
RamDev reflects on the simultaneous depth and simplicity of mantra, highlighting his own transcendent experiences across devotional practices.
This time on Healing at the Edge, RamDev dives into:
Receiving miracles from Hanuman and the sense that all things are already taken care of

Shifting from mechanical repetition to embodied feeling and heartfelt presence within the mantra
Allowing mantra practice to soften, open, and color the heart with devotion
Conventional devotional practice and making a bridge to God

Becoming the essence of the mantra and awakening the divine energy in our bodies
Drawing comparisons between tantric devotion and the Buddhist Heart Sutra
Realizing that it is all one as we transcend through layers of devotion
“You are the essence of the mantra. The mantra is not a tool, a pointer, a technique; it's the full manifestation of the divine. It’s awakening divine energy into your body with each repetition.” –RamDev
