Justin Boreta, the first musician to collaborate with Ram Dass, talks with Raghu about Ram Dass’ legacy and the power of music.

This week on Mindrolling, Justin and Raghu converse about:
Ram Dass’ legacy transported through music
The chants that Ram Dass brought home from India
Kali Yuga, the age of destruction
Chants for Ganesh and music as the delivery method for mantra
Ram Dass’ humor and charm
How music is a tool for being in the present moment
Using the breath to enter into a space of loving-kindness
The intersection of community, teachings, and music
Trusting the music and letting go
Raghu suggests checking out the poetry of Kabir brought to life through music.

“There was this sense of unencumbered big-eyed view of love. I felt so accepted and seen and relaxed right away. It was psychedelic. It was one of the most psychedelic experiences I’d had…the first thing I thought was if he [Ram Dass] makes me feel like that, I want other people around me to feel like that too.” – Justin Boreta
