Listen, listen, listen, to “My Heart Song,” sings Ram Dass in the premiere single on the new Love Serve Remember: Reimagined LP. Musician John Pattern took this archival 1986 recording of Ram Dass singing and transformed it into a musical love letter to the spiritual heart. Synths rise and fall, and while the instrumentation remains lush and elating, Ram Dass and John Pattern bring you to the essence of love, and into the path of the heart.”

“Thank you Mangala and the LSRF team for inviting me to share in this beautiful project. Ram Dass has a special place in my heart and is someone I strive to pattern my life after.” – John Pattern

“The Great Way” is the second single from Love Serve Remember: Reimagined, a new five-track vinyl EP. The song is a seventeen-minute meditative journey from The Human Experience, featuring Ram Dass reading the Third Chinese Patriarch of Zen, originally shared on the original Love Serve Remember LP set that came out in 1973.

Opening with reverb-laden synths, and ambient natural soundscapes. Ram Dass’ voice echoes as part of the rich harmonics, as if speaking in a cavern from some liminal space: “Stop talking and thinking, and there is nothing you will not be able to know.” Textures and moods shapeshift as the track evolves, The Human Experience traversing challenging sonic territory with Ram Dass and the listener. “To return to the root is to find meaning, but to pursue appearances is to miss the source.” This is a call to quiet, and in that sense, “The Great Way” is a vehicle for deep listening.

“Certain musicians are doing karma yoga…it’s like listening to that inner-sound, and they are manifesting it. Someone else can use that as a key to go back into themselves, and where we meet is in this other level of sound.”

– Ram Dass
