"All spiritual practice is about remembering, for me. This is my spiritual practice. It's about paying attention so that when these moments happen, I can be conscious of them. So, when the ‘love serve remember' message comes through in the form of a mushroom, in the form of Maharaj-ji, in the form of someone asking me for some change, in the form of my own mother, any way that it approaches, my practice is to try to remember." –Dakota Wint About Raghu Markus: Raghu Markus spent two years in India with Neem Karoli Baba and Ram Dass.

This uncomfortability is what spirituality is. A lot of people think that spirituality is the sunflowers, the sunset. These things are very beautiful, but when it all cracks, that’s the ‘real real’. When you watch a body burn, you think of everything in your life…your fate is ash, your fate is dirt, you will spend more time being dead than being whatever you are right now." – Dakota Wint See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
