Better Listen presents Sacred in the Every Day, by Ram Dass. Recorded in 1987 in Great Britain.

Ram Dass explains that we must first acknowledge our humanity if we hope to be an instrument of presence and peace. When we embrace our humanness, we create the space necessary for compassion to arise. We learn to balance the suffering we encounter with the innate empathy of the human heart.
