Healing does not mean going back to the way things were before, but rather allowing what is now to move us closer to God.
Ram DassIf you could stand back far enough and watch the whole process you'd see you are a totally determined being.
Ram DassIn most of our human relationships, we spend much of our time reassuring one another that our costumes of identity are on straight.
Ram DassWhen you get old, everything changes - your body changes, your family changes. You can't do what you've always done, anymore. And, either you can complain about things changing - or you can be content. Instead of complaining, you can say: "Oh, yesss! Look at all this change!" You can welcome it.
