UNDER THE BLANKET

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as Jason returns to the show to discuss sex and spiritual awakening. We talk about cultural issues, different approaches to sexuality for people becoming awake, how to practice tantric sex and more.

“Let's talk about sex, baby

Let's talk about you and me

Let's talk about all the good things

And the bad things that may be

Let's talk about sex”

- Salt and Pepper

“And a lot of people who have sex end up feeling separate from their partners through sexuality, because they get involved in their own greed for a certain experience, and they don’t slow down enough to be with their partner; so that the sexual process increases the shared awareness of it.”

- Ram Dass

Venture under Maharajji’s Blanket as Erin Montgomery returns to the show and we discuss the process of spreading the spiritual awakening. A lot comes up with this topic related to our own awakening, ego traps, divine timing and more.

“The more conscious a being becomes, the more he can use any occupation as a vehicle for spreading light.”

- Ram Dass

“Love everyone, serve everyone, remember God, and tell the truth.” 
-- Neem Karoli Baba

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as Rich and I discuss American cultural phenomena, the cosmic giggle and how it relates to our spiritual awakening. Of course my pretend podcast nemesis Joe Rogan, the king of bros, infiltrates the episode with his alt right cult of white men in their 20s exploring their toxic masculinity and following their white daddy into a fluffy cloud of ego. Yet Rogan and his podcast is not separate from Baba Here Love with his podcast. It’s all just God in drag.

“Jesus said: I am the way. It's the SAME way! The way is the way is THE WAY. The way is THE HARMONY OF THE UNIVERSE. when one comes into the spirit when one sees how it is one understands that behind all the individual differences

man-wombman, big-little, old-young,

good-bad

every label you can think of becomes background instead of figure what stands out is:

Here We Are, Here & Now, That's All There Is”

- Ram Dass from be here now

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as Joel and I have a hilarious and fun sacred discussion of the Ramayana. We explore how it applies to our spiritual awakening and you can feel the love of Hanuman for Ram!

“The relation of my Guru (Maharajji) to Ram is of perfect service. He is the servant of Ram. My Guru is a reincarnation of Hanuman, and as a perfect servant of Ram, he is totally selfless.” – Ram Dass

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as we meet Jeremy Hoffeld through a discussion of a passage from be here now, creativity with spiritual practice, different ego trips we can get caught in and seeing it all as God.

“It's better to see God in everything than to try to figure it out.” - Neem Karoli Baba

Venture under Maharajji’s Blanket and meet Sitaram Dass. We had a beautiful and profound conversation.

Sitaram Dass spent several years serving his beloved teacher Ram Dass on Maui, where he was shown the path of Bhakti, the yoga of service and devotion to God. Through writings, music, teachings, workshops, and one-on-one counseling, he works to strengthen our sense of the Timeless Sacred in today’s modern and fast-paced world. His new book, From and for God, is available now at all online retailers. For more info go to: www.fromandforgod.com

The author donates 100% of his profits to Hanuman Maui, a 501(c)3 nonprofit continuing Ram Dass’s presence on Maui. Hanuman Maui upholds his teachings of love, service and devotion through the Loving Awareness Sanctuary, and they are in the process of building a new Hanuman Mandir. https://www.hanumanmaui.org/

Half of those proceeds are specifically designated for Kripa’s service projects through the Sacred Community Project, a program under the direct fiscal sponsorship of Hanuman Maui. Kripa works to lower the barriers of access to contemplative and devotional practices through affordable, free, and donation-based offerings, spiritual support, and prison outreach.

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as James Cox returns to the show and we discuss worldliness vs. spiritual awakening relating it to our journey.

“Two things are required: one is: VAIGAGYA....the falling away of worldliness....the return of innocence.

that means you’re starting to have enough of all that. you see that everything you’re going to experience through your senses and everything you’re going to know through your thinking mind is not going to be enough, and worldly things begin to appear like dross instead of gold....not totally, just it begins to happen. it’s falling away. my teacher said: THE VEIL FALLS AWAY LIKE THE SKIN OF A SNAKE. THE EGO THINS LIKE CLOUDS, UNTIL ONLY A TRANSPARENT LAYER REMAINS. the other thing that’s required is the PURE SEEKING. the purity of faith. there is as much faith in you here in us at this moment as anywhere in india.”

- Ram Dass from be here now

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as Ryan comes on the show again and we discuss stages in the journey of awakening to our spiritual oneness with it all.

“Welcome! It’s so graceful to share the journey. We’ve been on the journey a long time together. We’ve gone through a lot of stages.

And just as in any journey, some people have dropped along the way, have had enough for this round. Others have been waiting for us to catch up. The journey passes through the seven valleys, the seven kingdoms, the chakras, the planes of consciousness, the degrees of faith. Often we only know we’ve been in a certain place when we pass beyond it, because when we’re in it, we don’t have the perspective to know, because we’re only being. But as the journey progresses, less and less do you need to know. When the faith is strong enough, it is sufficient just to be.”

- Ram Dass

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as we meet Rich and discuss spiritual-ego, hear about his amazing glimpse of Oneness and other topics related to spiritual awakening.

“Service as a spiritual path lacks glamour. I liked moving in and out of planes of reality, esoteric teachings, secret mantras, meditation in caves, experiences of bliss. Those experiences of different planes originated in my use of psychedelics, and I’d grown attached to those experiences. It was another trap that I created for myself, another kind of spiritual ego.

I had romanticized and idealized my spiritual path—so much so that I distanced myself from the nitty-gritty of life. I wanted to transcend this earthly plane, with its imperfect humans caught in their greed and ambition and selfishness, including me. Serving God was an ideal. Serving God in the form of other people, with all their vagaries and flaws, politics and personality quirks, was a whole other kettle of fish.”

- Ram Dass

Venture under Maharajji’s blanket as Erin Montgomery returns to the show. We discuss astral planes relating it to our spiritual awakening.

“One system through which you can look at it all, is that there are a set of vibrations or frequencies, you can call them the physical plane, the astral plane, the causal plane, and that which is beyond the beyond.

That’s a good image, “beyond the beyond.” In Tibetan, there is a mantra, which is “Gate, Gate, Paragate, Para Sam gate Bodhi svaha,” which means, “To that which is beyond the ocean of existence, I give homage; to that which is beyond the beyond.” That’s the place beyond those three levels.”

- Ram Dass
