Sample the Course: Ram Dass on Spiritual Practice
“The way you work, in doing Sādhanā [spiritual practice], is that every act you perform becomes a method of taking you to this other state of consciousness. You are trying to change your perceptual vantage point and everything you do has to be a device to take you to that place. From a Western point of view, you are doing a complete cognitive reorganization. You are changing your reference point, changing the core concept around which the whole constellation is built.“ – Ram Dass
