Embracing the Spirit of Connection: The Ram Dass Fellowship
The Ram Dass Fellowship is more than just a gathering—it's a sanctuary for those seeking connection, spiritual growth, and deeper meaning in life. Inspired by the teachings of Ram Dass, the beloved spiritual teacher and author of Be Here Now, the fellowship brings together individuals who resonate with his message of love, service, and inner awakening.
What Is the Ram Dass Fellowship?
The fellowship serves as a space for satsang, a Sanskrit term meaning "gathering in truth." It is an opportunity for people to meet, share stories, practice meditation, chant kirtan, and reflect on Ram Dass's teachings. At Southern Om Hot Yoga we know these gatherings embody the essence of compassion, self-inquiry, and mindfulness, fostering a sense of belonging and unity.
The Spirit of the Gatherings
At a typical Ram Dass Fellowship event, attendees come together to:
✨ Share a communal meal (potluck style)
✨ Practice meditation and mindfulness
✨ Chant kirtan, devotional singing that opens the heart
✨ Engage in satsang, discussing spiritual teachings and personal experiences
✨ Cultivate selfless service (Seva) by supporting one another and the wider community
The focus is always on being present and embracing the here and now—the central theme of Ram Dass’s teachings. Whether you are new to the spiritual path or have been walking it for years, the fellowship offers a welcoming space to explore your journey.
