In this Hanging in the Heart Space session originally live-streamed on April 29th, 2021, Krishna Das shares personal stories and answers questions around what it means to meet a Saint in a dream, how to work with attachment as a parent, what it was like meeting Maharaj-ji's recently passed son Dharm Narayan Sharma, why he doesn't always listen to Ram Dass' relationship advice, how we can offer love to others through chanting, if it's possible to 'destroy' the ego, and how practice is like planting seeds of enlightenment. To close, he shares kirtan of Narayana/For Your Love, as well as the Hanuman Chalisa.

"There's no button to push to make the ego go away – that's what spiritual practice is for, that's what it's about. The names that we chant are the names of our true being, which is not separate from everybody else, which is the same as everybody else. The essence within us is the same essence that's in everybody. What's looking out of my eyes right this moment is the same thing that's looking out of your eyes." – Krishna Das
