Episode notes
Imagination Creates Experience
- Imagination is the origin point of all experience and creation.
- Ram Dass emphasizes imagination as a real plane that shapes reality, not mere fantasy.
Use Quiet and Image To Connect
- Sit, quiet your body and mind, then use an inner image to communicate with the guru.
- Use the felt presence in a dark-room-like quiet as the landscape for imagination-based practice.
Use Faith To Test Experiences
- Trust inner experience through faith and inner registration to distinguish genuine insight from self-deception.
- Pay attention to your deepest place for an authentic sense of whether an experience is 'bullshit' or real.
