In this episode, RamDev gives a thoughtful talk on:

• Resting in wholeness and non-duality in order to heal all parts of ourselves
• Seeing through the illusion of separateness instead of labeling ourselves or others as “broken”
• Understanding the ego and the ‘I’ that suffers, and learning to release fixation on identity
• Insights from Maharaj-ji and other gurus on awakening beyond duality
• Opening the heart of compassion and experiencing its boundless, healing presence
• The tantric revelation that all experiences are sacred, even the painful or uncomfortable ones
• How wholeness becomes contagious, reflecting others’ true nature and innate completeness
• Rediscovering the awareness that is already present within us
• Trusting in our true nature, and allowing suffering to transform rather than resisting it

“Until we realize that we’re already whole, we have healing work to do. Healing body, healing mind, healing spirit. We’re really not talking about healing illnesses. We are freeing capacities that have been limited and constricted in the past. The deepest healing. Healing everything.” –RamDev

In this episode, RamDev gives insightful perspectives on:

• The instability of the heart and how fear, guilt, and shame keep us closed off
• Why we are so reactive to the chaos of world events and how to respond with wisdom instead
• Practical ways to work with fear, guilt, and shame so the heart can open moment to moment
• Embracing our divine nature without denying our humanness
• The power of grounding and trusting in the body as a source of safety
• Learning to fully receive the support of the earth and the Divine Mother
• Living in a third chakra society where power is out of balance
• Becoming an embodiment of mercy and compassion rather than idolizing power

“Fear, guilt, and shame are the demons of the first, second, and third chakras, respectively, and until we have worked with those emotions in a direct way, it is really impossible for the heart to be open in a stable way.” – RamDev

Through the selfless practices of Tantra and Guru Yoga, RamDev outlines how to have a conscious relationship with anger rather than allowing it to consume us.

This time on Healing at the Edge, RamDev gives a talk on:

• Having a neutral view of anger (not good v. bad) and consciously allowing ourselves to feel it
• Recognizing anger as a valid response to the state of the world
• Seeing all beings and experiences—even those that trigger anger—as expressions of the Divine
• Noticing that we are often not angry for the reasons we think we are
• Lessening one’s self-absorption as a key point of the spiritual path
• Cultivating gratitude and appreciation for everyone we encounter
• Exploring Guru Yoga: merging with the guru’s wisdom and presence
• Realizing our inherent wholeness and receiving blessings from the guru
• Becoming nobody so that there is no one to become lost in anger
• Transmuting outer devotion to tantric, inner devotion
• Feeling anger and sadness without becoming consumed by it
• Remembering that the same shakti fueling anger can also power creativity

“Anger is not good or bad. Anger is often a reasonable response to what is going on in the world. Yet, it is a difficult emotion because it’s so hot, and it’s often very sudden. In Buddhism, fear and anger are thought to be the same emotion.” – RamDev
