Ram Dass - To Speak About God

Sacramento, CA
22 October 1996

Maharajji once told Ram Dass...
"You must speak only about God."

n the years since, RamI Dass tells us, he has been trying to find the many different ways of fulfilling those instructions. But words are just the conceptual mind's attempt to describe the Mystery, and what matters are not the words themselves but the mystical experience behind them, dissolving the boundary between the experiencer and experience.

In a lively Q&A session following the lecture, Ram Dass talks about conscious parenting, meeting beings on other planes, the nature of pain, using illness as a spiritual path, and about what it is that survives death.
