About this episode
Ram Dass brings up a meeting he had with Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche during which Rinpoche said to him, "We have to accept responsibility,” to which Ram Dass replied, "God has all the responsibility,” and Rinpoche replied, "Ram Dass, you are copping out.”
Ram Dass explores the way in which we experience everything as a free choice but in some way it's part of a determined law:
You have a choice of identifying with your incarnate creation (your body, personality, social entity) or You as the creator (God that resides within each one of us) of that creation.
The creative spark - that's what is responsible. We accept that we are part of the One, and that we are in fact creating our universe.
