Ram Dass On Attachment And Addiction

Powerful Drive Systems

When you work with powerful drive systems, like sex or fasting or breathing, you're working with stuff that's deeply built into us. It's the primordial stuff of our incarnations, and we can't treat it lightly. Each of us has to deal with different levels of energy within those systems, and with different levels of attachment, and so what is right for one person is absolutely wrong for another. --Ram Dass
