It is possible that in the 21st Century the Earth will not be inhabited by humans. One of the great mystics of India, a very simple man up in the mountains, somebody once asked him about the future. He said there will come a time when you'll walk five miles and you may see a light and you'll be so happy to know another being exists.
Ram DassSo somebody comes along and gets to me. They get me angry or uptight or they awaken some desire in me, wow am I delighted. They got me. And thatโs my work on myself. If I am angry with you because your behavior doesnโt fill my model of how you should be, thatโs my problem for having models. No expectations, no upset. If you are a liar and a cheat, thatโs your Karma. If Iโm cheated, thatโs my work on myself.
Ram DassThe way we regard death is critical to the way we experience life. When your fear of death changes, the way you live your life changes.
